Lab Testing & Management (LIMS)

LIMS for geotechnical, construction materials testing, and inspection firms

Achieve efficient lab operations with real-time visibility

Lab staff often receive samples with missing or unclear details, like which tests are needed or what project they belong to. Without this information, samples can be misplaced, assigned incorrectly, or tested the wrong way—causing errors, delays, and added costs.

MetaField helps keep everything organized by making sure samples are tracked and all key details are easy to access. This gives everyone the information they need to work efficiently and keep projects moving.

Sample Management

Maintain full chain-of-custody from field to lab

MetaField connects field and lab workflows so every sample is tracked from collection through testing, eliminating gaps that lead to errors and rework.

  • End-to-end tracking: Follow samples from field collection through final test results
  • Seamless field-to-lab handoff: Ensure lab staff have full context on tests and specifications
  • Chain-of-custody records: Maintain a clear, auditable history for every sample

Accreditation Management

Stay audit-ready with centralized lab records 

MetaField centralizes accreditation records, certifications, and equipment documentation, reducing audit preparation time and ongoing administrative effort. 

  • Digital records: Store and manage accreditation documentation in one system
  • Equipment tracking: Manage machinery lists and calibration schedules
  • Automated reminders: Stay ahead of maintenance and calibration deadlines

Lab Management

Balance lab workloads with real-time work queues

MetaField gives lab supervisors visibility into active work queues so resources can be allocated efficiently, and testing stays on schedule. 

  • Work queue visibility: See active, upcoming, and completed tests in real time
  • Balanced assignments: Distribute work evenly across lab staff
  • Operational insight: Understand lab capacity and throughput
  • Exception management: Surface items that need action before delays occur
