==History==

Before LabLynx was a company, it was a LIMS product offered by Atlanta Systems Consultants, Inc. (ASC).<ref name="LLX_archive1">{{cite web |url= http://www.lablynx.com/ |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/19990125100717/http://www.lablynx.com/ |archivedate=25 January 1998 |title=LABLynx On The Web |accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref><ref name="doh_fl">{{cite web|title=LABlynx on the Web |url=http://www.doh.state.fl.us/Irm/Apps/ihis/JADS/deh/Market%20Research/Background/asc_website.pdf |publisher=Florida Department of Health |date=8 March 2000 |accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref> Formed in 1992,<ref name="SoS_asc">{{cite web|title=Business Entity – Atlanta Systems Consultants, Inc. |url=http://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/Corp.asp?863137|publisher=Georgia Secretary of State|accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref> ASC’s LabLynx division later began work on a laboratory information management system designed specifically for a web browser. ASC demonstrated its new Internet Explorer-based LabLynx LIMS at [[Pittsburgh Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy|Pittcon]] in 1997, among the first browser-based LIMS to appear at the time.<ref name="LS_prod"/><ref name="LIMSwb">{{cite book|title=LIMS Workbook - A Practical Guide |edition=3rd |author=McGinnis, Mike and Norman Perkins|chapter=I.

By July 2000, the LabLynx division of ASC separated to become its own incorporated entity.<ref name="SoS_llx" /> And while ASC eventually ceased to exist in 2005,<ref name="SoS_asc" /> LabLynx, Inc. went on to diversify its offerings. LabLynx’s browser-based LIMS previously demonstrated at Pittcon in 1997 expanded to become ELab, which in 2001 took on an application service provider (ASP) model of distribution.<ref name="LS_prod2">{{cite web |url=http://www.limsource.com/products/vatlanta.html |archiveurl= http://web.archive.org/web/20010409200118/http://www.limsource.com/products/vatlanta.html |archivedate=9 April 2001 |title=LIMSource: LIMS Vendor: Atlanta Systems Consultants, Inc. |accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref> In 2004 LabLynx released a browser-based tool called openLIMS, which gave consultants and end-users the ability "to build custom LIMS solutions that are geared to the exact operational needs of many different laboratories."<ref>{{cite web|title=Build your own LIMS: News from LabLynx |url=http://www.laboratorytalk.com/news/lbl/lbl100.html |publisher=LaboratoryTalk.com |date=6 January 2004 |accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref>
 
On June 19, 2006, LabLynx established the Laboratory Informatics Institute, an open membership group with the purpose of advancing the field of laboratory informatics and shaping the standards associated with it.<ref name="LII">{{cite web|title=Laboratory Informatics Institute Established |url=http://www.limsfinder.com/BlogDetail.aspx?id=31049_0_3_0_C |publisher=Laboratory Informatics Institute, Inc. |date=17 July 2006 |accessdate=22 October 2011}}</ref> LabLynx made further moves to better its LIMS offerings in August 2008, renewing and expanding its contract with Nagarro, Inc., a U.S.-based technology consulting firm.
