LabVantage Solutions, a laboratory information management system provider based in Somerset, NJ, has a COVID-19 laboratory information management system (LIMS) solution that can be used for companies to improve employee health and safety in the workplace.
According to July 22, 2020 press release, a global consumer packaged goods (CPG) company has utilized the LIMS solution to open an in-house COVID-19 testing center where employees can be tested for the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19.
