Many specification documents for laboratory informatics systems have been compiled over the years. Most of them tend to focus on a potential client's "wishlist" of features for a given system. This updated version of a revised LIMSpec is different; it attempts to take a regulatory-, standards-, and guidance-based approach to building a specification document for laboratory informatics systems. The specification is built out upon on more than 100 resources, with ASTM E1578-18 Standard Guide for Laboratory Informatics and its requirements list chief among them. After the introduction and methodology, various requirements are organized and listed in a methodical order, each supported by one or more regulations, standards, guidance, or accreditation requirements documents. Finally, LIMSpec 2022 closes with a few tips on putting the specification to use.
The December 2022 update focuses on the food and beverage industry, adding almost 30 new resources. Examples of significant additions include BRC Global Standards' Global Standard for Food Safety, Issue 8, Global Food Safety Initiative's Benchmarking Requirements Version 2020.1, and various other 21 CFR parts. Some verbiage on existing requirements was also slightly tweaked where necessary.
