Biolaqua

Founded in 2008 in Campo Grande, MS, Biolaqua Ambiental is an accredited environmental laboratory powered by a multidisciplinary technical team of biologists, administrators, environmental engineers, and laboratory technicians. Biolaqua Ambiental specializes in the collection and analysis of drinking water, surface water, effluents, and air from climate-controlled environments.

Biolaqua Ambiental is proud to be accredited by Cgcre/Inmetro under the ABNT NBR ISO/IEC 17025 standard and recognized by Imasul and Iagro for our expertise in environmental sampling and analysis.

Their Challenge

Relying on Excel spreadsheets for laboratory data management and registering reports in Word documents presented significant inefficiencies. This manual approach was time-consuming, as it often required repetitive data entry, frequent cross-referencing between files, and meticulous formatting to maintain consistency. The risk of human error increased with each manual update, potentially compromising data integrity and traceability. Biolaqua Ambiental recognized that manual processes were causing challenges.

The team decided that a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) would be an effective solution to automate and streamline their lab operations.

Previously, our simple potability analysis reports took 10 days to deliver. Now, thanks to myLIMS, we’ve cut that time in half—just 5 days. We’ve already recommended myLIMS to other laboratories and will continue to do so, as it offers unmatched speed, reliability, and traceability for analytical results.

Our Solution

myLIMS was recommended by Biolaqua’s partner, Merieux NutriSciences (Bioagri Ambiental). After careful evaluation, Biolaqua Ambiental chose myLIMS as the best solution for their laboratory management needs.

Since implementing myLIMS, Biolaqua Ambiental experienced significant benefits, including:

Reduced laboratory analysis time by an average of 50%.

Cut paper use by 80%, now only using paper for customer-requested reports.

Improved communication with technical support thanks to strong industry knowledge and experience.

Increased laboratory analysis capacity by up to 30% with the same team.

Streamlined workflow by removing two process steps, accelerating results while maintaining reliability.

Biolaqua Ambiental also implemented the myLIMS Portal, giving each laboratory client secure, personalized access to monitor their sample status in real time. This innovative platform streamlines ISO/IEC 17025 quality control, allowing customers to manage all compliance requirements directly through the portal.
