Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a management system, and in particular to a laboratory management system. Background Art
[0002] For laboratory managers, how to optimize experimental processes and properly manage laboratory resources to improve efficiency and achieve scientific, standardized and sustainable laboratory operations, and achieve the effect of lean management. Laboratory personnel qualification management and laboratory equipment management are undoubtedly two major challenges. In particular, laboratories that perform standardized inspections at the international / national level must meet the inspection capabilities required by these standards. For example, in terms of personnel qualification management, whether personnel skills training is sufficient and whether personnel qualification certification is effective is particularly important; for example, in terms of equipment management, regular calibration and maintenance of equipment should not be ignored. The international level standards refer to standards formulated by international standard organizations, such as the International Organization Standardization (ISO), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and the European Conformity Certification (Conformité Européenne, CE); the national level standards refer to standards formulated by the competent authorities of each country, such as the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS) and the German Institute for Standardization (Deutsches Institut für Normunge.V., DIN).
[0003] Chinese Patent Authorization No. CN107862447 proposes an intelligent laboratory supervision and management system for China's national food safety testing industry 4.0 standard. While it proposes using information technology to record laboratory testing processes and personnel operations for regulatory oversight by competent authorities, it does not mention that laboratory settings must comply with standard requirements. Separately, Chinese Patent Authorization No. CN113516360 proposes an automated instrument and equipment management system for third-party testing organizations. While it provides information management for instrument and equipment procurement and acceptance, calibration and repair, sample and personnel information matching, and overall instrument and equipment status query and management, it also does not mention that laboratory settings must comply with standard requirements. Summary of the Invention

For example, by comparing the laboratory personnel qualification certification status with the standard inspection information, the personnel qualification determination result is obtained, and then a training list is generated based on the personnel qualification determination result. In addition, the laboratory management system can also determine whether the laboratory equipment configuration and operation meet the requirements of international / national standards by comparing the equipment setting operation status with the standard inspection information. The standard inspection information is information formulated and announced by the relevant competent authorities, such as the aforementioned international standard organizations or the standard inspection information formulated and announced by the competent authorities of various countries.
[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for automating the management of control points of standard testing laboratories through digital management, covering the specific requirements of the General Accreditation Rules of the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment, such as: CNAS-R01:2023, CNAS-R02:2023, CNAS-R03:2023, etc.
