Q LIMS to WaterOutlook workflow

About WaterOutlook:

The WaterOutlook cloud-based system is a unique ‘one stop shop’ for operational data and reporting. As an operational and compliance management tool, it provides real time information on how plants are operating and gives instant alerts to issues that would otherwise take several days to filter through.

Now all your operational and compliance data can be in the same place.

Designed by the industry for the industry and used by 60% of New Zealand Local Government, it is easily operated via a web portal or mobile device. WaterOutlook allows users to know on a daily basis how their utilities are performing within operational and consent parameters.

WaterOutlook has no vested interest in the data.

WaterOutlook is a data storage and transport system and do not use Council data for secondary income streams such as consultancy. This means WaterOutlook maintains the highest level of audit integrity and eliminates any question of conflict of interest in data service provision.

For enquiries on the integration please contact us via our website or if you’re an existing customer, through the support portal.

The Narcotic Drugs Amendment Act 2016 saw the rise of the medical cannabis industry in Australia, as it permitted the research, cultivation and production of medical cannabis and related products. Following this, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) had a new task on their hands, regulating the production/manufacturing of what was once a Schedule 9 (S9) drug.  

As such, the TGA issued a new standard to specify the minimum quality requirements that unapproved medicinal cannabis products imported into and supplied/manufactured in Australia must adhere/conform to, this came be to be known as TGO 93 (Standard for Medicinal Cannabis).

TGO 93 stipulated that any company within Australia looking to import/export/manufacture Medicinal Cannabis products had to adhere to the standard and ensure that the active ingredients and cannabinoids present in the final product are strictly derived from the cannabis plant.

As TGO 93 involves recording, tracking and reporting on a range of macroscopic and microscopic examinations as well as chromatographic procedures, handling the data via a paper-based method becomes quite cumbersome and has no reportable audit trail. 

This is essentially where we come in, QLIMS assists users with:

How QLIMS supports the medicinal cannabis process

As the cannabis testing industry grows more and more, so does the need for greater efficiency relating to results, reports, regulatory compliance and the many other aspects of data management.

Here we will explain to you how our solution, QLIMS, supports companies involved in each part of the chain and the items that medicinal cannabis companies should consider when selecting a LIMS and software for quality control.

For simplicity we have grouped the below info-graphic into 3 key functional areas:

• Cultivation

• Research & Quality Control

• Manufacturing

The is relevant for groups who are growing the plants for medicinal use including harvesting of the plant material. 

The key requirement is to ensure you are recording each stage of the process, performing the correct tests and capturing the associated data in accordance to the licenses.  

QLIMS manages the associated testing required as part of the production/manufacture of medicinal cannabis products and ensures specifications are met.

The subsidiary data including COAs required for accreditation is critical to be captured.

We are looking for an Implementation Manager.

If you are Melbourne based, technically minded and enjoy being customer facing this Implementation Management role could be for you.
