RTS Enabling Technology and Northwest Analytical Form Partnership: C14LIMS Now Interfaces with Quality Analyst

Richland, WA and Portland, OR—RTS Enabling Technology and Northwest Analytical proudly announce the interfacing of the RTS C14 Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to Northwest Analytical's (NWA) Quality Analyst. Using advanced NWA run file technology, the C14LIMS/Quality Analyst interface allows users to build queries for customized selection of laboratory results and automatic plotting of control charts. The interface form gives users full control by allowing them to select query filter options, the number of data points to plot, date range, subgroup size, and the type of control chart. Once selections have been made, users can produce professional and attractive NWA control charts with the click of a button.

"Integrating NWA Quality Analyst with C14LIMS was a huge time saver," stated Todd Stewart, C14LIMS Product Manager. "To develop this type of functionality ourselves would have required many more resources." Karlin Kelly, a C14LIMS software engineer, added, "I was easily able to integrate the NWA Quality Analyst software with our software". Jeff Cawley, Vice President of NWA, stated, "NWA is pleased that RTS recognizes the robust functionality that makes Quality Analyst the best SQC component for C14LIMS. This interface offers customers both the flexibility of customization and the ease of a point and click solution."
