Douglas, Alan Vaughan<br /> <br /> '''License for content''': [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International]<br /> <br /> '''Publication date''': August 2021<br /> <br /> This guide recognizes the challenges of the current [[cannabis]] testing environment for [[Laboratory|laboratories]] and identifies the value of the [[laboratory information management system]] (LIMS) towards lessening the impact of those challenges on the cannabis testing lab. However, what makes for a quality LIMS that can have a positive impact on the lab, and what features are specifically required? How should the acquisition process be approached, and who are the key vendors selling such solutions? And what questions should labs be asking—perhaps as part of a request for information (RFI) process—of vendors to ensure they are actually going to get a LIMS that practically meets the lab's needs? This guide addresses these topics and more, and it provides additional resources at the end, which may be useful to not only LIMS acquisition but also developing analytical methods and maintaining regulatory compliance.<br /> <br /> The table of contents for the ''LIMS Buyer’s Guide for Cannabis Testing Laboratories'' is as follows: <br /> <br /> 1.
