FAQs

How does Scispot help government laboratories improve compliance?

keyboard_arrow_down

Scispot's government LIMS platform includes comprehensive audit trails, electronic signatures, and automated documentation features that satisfy regulatory requirements. The system enforces standard operating procedures and maintains detailed records of all laboratory activities, ensuring consistent compliance with GLP, ISO 17025, CLIA, CAP, and other relevant standards. Our 21 CFR Part 11 GxP Compliance Suite supports FDA and EU compliance requirements with tamper-proof audit trails and validated workflows. Automated validation checks reduce human error, while customizable reporting templates generate compliance-ready documentation. This systematic approach typically reduces compliance-related administrative work by 40-50%, allowing your team to focus on their scientific expertise rather than paperwork.

What makes Scispot different from other LIMS platforms for government labs?

keyboard_arrow_down

Unlike traditional LIMS built as rigid, one-size-fits-all solutions, Scispot's government LIMS was designed with the specific needs of public sector laboratories in mind. Our platform uniquely combines sample management, inventory control, instrument integration, and reporting capabilities in a configurable environment that laboratory staff can adapt without coding. We offer security features that meet government standards, role-based access controls for sensitive data, and integration capabilities with existing government systems. Our platform is built on AWS's secure infrastructure with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance. Most importantly, our implementation approach is structured for public sector procurement processes, with clear documentation and support for various funding and approval workflows.

How does Scispot support different types of government laboratories?

keyboard_arrow_down

Scispot's flexible platform adapts to various government laboratory types. For public health laboratories, we offer specialized sample tracking for disease surveillance and outbreak management. Environmental testing labs benefit from our field data collection tools and geolocation features for monitoring air, water, soil, and forever chemicals. Forensic laboratories rely on our chain-of-custody tracking and evidence management capabilities. Quality assurance labs use our platform to enforce testing protocols and compliance for consumer products and infrastructure materials. Nuclear facilities utilize our radiological sample management capabilities. Research-focused government labs utilize our data management and collaboration tools to support scientific discovery and knowledge sharing. No matter your agency's mission, Scispot configures to your specific workflows without custom coding.

How does Scispot ensure data security for government laboratories?

keyboard_arrow_down

Scispot implements multiple layers of security to protect sensitive government data. Our platform includes role-based access controls that limit information visibility based on user credentials and need-to-know principles. All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using industry-standard protocols. The system maintains detailed audit logs of all user activities and data changes. Scispot employs strict tenant isolation – your lab's data is stored in a dedicated database schema and completely isolated from other customers. For federal agencies requiring the highest security standards, we support single-tenant deployments that provide exclusive dedicated resources and complete data isolation. Our platform can be deployed on AWS GovCloud (US) for agencies requiring FedRAMP-authorized cloud services. For agencies with specific security requirements, we offer deployment options that comply with government security standards, including support for two-factor authentication and SSO integration. Our security architecture is regularly audited and updated to address emerging threats, ensuring your laboratory data remains protected.

How can Scispot's LIMS help government labs improve collaboration across agencies?

keyboard_arrow_down

Scispot enables secure, controlled collaboration across government departments and agencies through its unified data platform. Laboratories can selectively share test results, analytical methods, and reference data with partner organizations while maintaining appropriate access controls. The system supports standardized data formats that improve interoperability between different agencies' systems. For public-private partnerships, secure external portals allow controlled information sharing with outside collaborators. This collaborative infrastructure helps break down data silos between agencies, improving coordination during public health emergencies, environmental incidents, or other situations requiring multi-agency response. Scispot's platform facilitates joint operations between agencies responsible for food safety, bioterrorism response, environmental protection, and other critical public services.
