I’ve been working with a Top 100 Telecoms organization on their cloud strategy so I was interested to see PwCs findings on the Top 25 Fastest growing cloud companies.* I thought it was a great overview of what can make a cloud partnership successful.
I was recently working with a company and we had a great discussion on using Enterprise single systems for managing corporate data or using different cloud point solutions. The context was a discussion on project management software and the big question was ‘in the long run which is the right way to go?’
Read MoreIt has already been discussed that the KineMatik ELN is built upon Content Server, an Enterprise Information Management system. This means that the ELN also contains an enterprise class document management system. Some of the features of document management probably don’t mean much for most end users, but it is important, especially in the more regulated environments (QA/QC, manufacturing etc.) as the user can link to a specific approved version of a protocol. Thus if a protocol is updated, the Experimental reference still points to the version that was used for the experiment, maintaining the experimental integrity.

Another long standing feature in the KineMatik ELN, a user can create a spider query based on a topic of interest, called a “Prospector”. The user defines simple parameters, similar to the search capabilities defined above and others such as a date range for when the prospect is active, as the search criteria. If a Prospector identifies information that matches the user’s search criteria, provided the user has the appropriate permissions to that item, it then adds the corresponding item to a result list where it can be accessed. Working with Prospectors also involves organizing and deleting results. When creating a Prospector, the user can also set its result list options, which include the number of results displayed and the order in which the results are listed, based on closest match and/or ranking. The user can also choose whether the ELN shows or hides summaries of the resulting list items. Notifications can also be created that emails the requesting user each time the result list is updated.

KineMatik strongly believes in adoption of open standards, and as such will work within the framework of any reputable group whose mission is to define standards for data interchange with ELNs. The KineMatik ELN currently supports the XML (Extensible Markup Language) for data export/import and communication with any 3rd party system that supports the XML standard.

All three search options mentioned during the conference have always been available in the KineMatik ELN:

As a company expands or a product moves from early R&D toward regulatory approval, the number of documents required seems to expand exponentially. This week’s post on the advantages of electronic document management systems (EDMS) versus paper is the sixth and final in a series based on an interview I did with Frances Kennedy, MBA, owner and principal consultant for P7 Management Consulting. These posts are focused around:
Topics: ELN, Electronic Lab Notebook, Electronic Lab Notebook, Quality Management System, Regulatory, QMS, Enterprise Document Management, ECM, SOP, standard operating procedure
Beginning with my last post and continuing for the next few weeks, I’ll be discussing a number of document-management issues with Frances Kennedy, MBA, owner and principal consultant for P7 Management Consulting. These issue are focused around:
Topics: ELN, Electronic Lab Notebook, Document Management, R&D, Diagnostics, Quality Management System, QMS, Enterprise Content Management, Enterprise Document Management, Content Server, eNovator, Medical Devices, In Vitro Diagnostics, ECM, Records Management
This week and for the next several weeks, I’ll be presenting excerpts from an interview I did with Frances Kennedy, MBA, PMP, on:

At the risk of getting some grief from people who work in the world of records management (RM) and archiving, I’ll paint a picture of what I visualise when I think of archivists.
