A reading from the balance, not a sticky note
Place the vessel — the weight lands in the sample record. Less retyping, fewer transcription errors that trigger CAPA, client complaints, or failed assessments.
A LIMS People Use on the Bench — Not Only Before an Assessment
An analyst in gloves will not tap twenty tiny fields: they jot a number and mistype it into a spreadsheet later. WAPP designs LIMS for wet-lab reality — one screen, one action, readings from balances into the sample record. For small labs we ship a free base system — with a queue and clear terms. For accredited and regulated work we customize around ISO/IEC 17025 data integrity.
What changes when software matches the lab floor
UI for gloves and fogged goggles
One screen — one action, large controls. Consumer-style web UX gets abandoned on a chem bench: if it is awkward, Excel wins again.
Audit Trail without a clerk role
Immutable logs and record versions accumulate in the background. Analysts do chemistry — quality and assessors still get the evidence pack ISO/IEC 17025 expects.
Certificates of analysis without folder archaeology
Roles, reviews, and e-signatures in one flow. Managers do not collect scans from shared drives before releasing a result.
LIMS modules for samples and tests
Screens and master data follow your methods and accreditation scope. The point is that an analyst can capture a fact in seconds — not reconstruct it from a night draft.
Sample and specimen tracking
Sample record: client, method, sampling conditions, lifecycle statuses. A QR on the sample opens the record on the floor without searching a paper log.
Methods, analytes, and units
A library of test methods, matrices, analytes, and units. A method revision does not disappear into personal drives.
Reports and certificates of analysis
Reports assemble in the system: participants, reviews, signatures, templates aligned with your accreditation scope. Less manual transfer — less risk of a finding over a typo.
Equipment registry
Calibration, maintenance, and results per instrument. Fit-for-use status is visible before a measurement series starts.
Roles and access
Staff see only their areas: intake, testing, master-data admin. Permissions are set before go-live, not by informal agreement.
Traceability log
An audit of entity changes and user actions. Investigations use the system trail — not messenger history.
Sample QR
Label the sample for fast open on site. A scan opens one record instead of hunting a number in a binder.
Free pilot for labs up to ~10 people — not “tomorrow”
If spreadsheets already hurt and a boxed LIMS is neither affordable nor desirable, WAPP can ship a base system free. This is a selective pilot for small teams — not a mass giveaway. There is a queue and an exchange.
Who can join
Small labs — roughly up to 10 people, anywhere we can work remotely and visit when needed. Base contour: samples and statuses, methods and analytes, signed reports, equipment with calibration, roles, and an action log.
How you pay if not with money
With time and openness: we document the rollout as a public case (anonymized if required). Need it yesterday and fully confidential — commercial development.
A 2–4 month queue is normal
A free slot opens when the team has a window. We will not drop paid delivery for a free start tomorrow. Your request joins a live queue.
What is customized separately
Backend, instrument interfaces, report templates for your accreditation scope — after the process map. Billing modules, public sample portals, and full multi-site cloud sync are in progress and are not promised on this page.
Case: proficiency testing platform
Spektrokhim — interlaboratory comparisons: rounds, samples, participant results. Adjacent to LIMS work: there we learned that default web UX fails on a chem bench — and carried that into LIMS design.

Custom LIMS Development for SPEKTROKHIM: Automating Interlaboratory Proficiency Testing for 250+ Laboratories
SPEKTROKHIM ran 250+ labs through Excel and email. We replaced a legacy German LIMS with a custom platform — 3x faster reporting, zero manual collation. Here's how.

For small labs (roughly up to 10 people) WAPP ships a base version without a license fee: samples, methods, reports, roles, action log. In return — a queue (often 2–4 months) and willingness to publish a case study. Urgent or under NDA — commercial development. Backend, instruments, and accreditation-aligned templates are always priced separately.
