Challenges you know too well

These are the pain points we hear from labs in your industry — and the reasons they switch to PureLIMS.

FDA & FSMA Compliance

FSMA Preventive Controls and Produce Safety rules require documented testing, corrective actions, and supplier verification — with audit-ready records.

Pathogen Testing Turnaround

Positive Salmonella, Listeria, or E. coli results require immediate action. Slow reporting delays product holds and increases risk to consumers.

Supplier Management

Managing hundreds of suppliers, each with different testing requirements and specifications, overwhelms labs still using spreadsheets.

Recall Traceability

When a recall happens, you need to trace every affected lot back to raw materials and testing data — fast. Manual tracing takes days instead of minutes.

Multi-Matrix Complexity

Food labs test across raw materials, finished products, environmental swabs, and water — each with different methods, limits, and reporting requirements.

Labeling & Nutritional Compliance

Nutritional label data must be accurate, FDA-compliant, and traceable to analytical results. Errors lead to product recalls and regulatory action.

FDA & FSMA Compliance

Built-in support for FSMA Preventive Controls, Produce Safety, FSVP, and Intentional Adulteration rules. Corrective action workflows trigger automatically on out-of-spec results.

  • FSMA Preventive Controls documentation
  • Produce Safety testing workflows
  • Foreign Supplier Verification Program support
  • Automatic CAPA generation on OOS results
  • Environmental monitoring program management
  • Audit-ready record export in FDA-accepted formats

Pathogen & Microbial Testing

End-to-end workflows for Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, and other pathogen testing. Positive results trigger immediate hold notifications and corrective action workflows.

  • Pathogen testing with presence/absence and enumeration
  • Automatic product hold notification on positive results
  • Corrective action workflows with escalation
  • Environmental monitoring site management
  • Trend analysis for pathogen frequency
  • Integration with rapid pathogen detection instruments

Chemical & Nutritional Analysis

Manage pesticide residue, heavy metals, mycotoxins, allergens, and nutritional analysis from a single platform. Results feed directly into labeling compliance workflows.

  • Pesticide residue screening and quantitation
  • Heavy metals testing by ICP-MS
  • Mycotoxin and allergen panel management
  • Nutritional analysis with label calculation
  • FDA Nutrition Facts panel generation
  • Specification management per product and customer

Supplier Management & Verification

Track supplier testing requirements, monitor results over time, and generate supplier scorecards. FSVP documentation is maintained automatically as testing data flows in.

  • Supplier profile management with testing requirements
  • Automated testing frequency based on risk level
  • Supplier scorecard generation
  • FSVP documentation and record keeping
  • Supplier notification on out-of-spec results
  • Certificate of analysis review and approval workflow

Recall Traceability

Trace any product lot back to raw materials, testing data, and supplier records in minutes — not days. Forward and backward traceability is built into every record.

  • Lot-level forward and backward tracing
  • Raw material to finished product linkage
  • Testing data association at every trace point
  • Recall simulation and drill support
  • Affected product identification in minutes
  • Regulatory notification package generation
