Flexible, compliant LIMS built around your lab — not the other way around.
Streamline sample intake, testing, approvals and reporting with a modern Laboratory Information Management System that adapts to your workflows, integrates with your tools, and scales as you grow.
Highlights at a glance
- Customisable workflows for simple and complex labs
- Sample → Test → Approve → Report flow with full traceability
- Batch testing and guided logic (e.g. auto require additional samples)
- Audit ready compliance and multi stage approvals
- Reporting that grows with you (standard reports + Power BI Options)
- Integrations with instruments, ERPs, and cloud accounting
- Built for small to mid sized labs that need agility without enterprise overhead
How Reuben LIMS works
- Intake & Registration
Create jobs with one or many samples. Use barcodes to register items and map tubes through the lab with end-to-end traceability. - Guided Testing
Built-in logic ensures the right steps happen in the right order (e.g. for allergen panels, prompt for additional sample splits). Batch testing keeps multi-product runs organised. - Review & Approval
Configure multi-stage approvals. Add comments, trigger retests or duplicate checks, and capture a complete audit trail. - Certificate & Delivery
Generate validated certificates automatically and deliver them to clients. Push job data to your accounting system for clean downstream ops. - Report & Improve
Use standard reports or plug into BI for TAT, throughput and bottleneck analytics. Build custom KPIs per client or method
