Fink & Partner GmbH develops and distributes laboratory and scientific informatics software solutions. They also provide consulting services.

History

The company was founded in 1992.[1] In early 2019, the company announced its new [FP]-LIMS, a laboratory information management system (LIMS) built on its prior [Dia] modular database solution.[2]

Prior technology

[Dia] was a modular database solution for laboratories, very similar to a scientific data management system (SDMS). It was designed "for the use in laboratories for production, quality conformation, research and development in environmental analysis. It is not specialised on one specific branch."[3]

Technology and products

[FP]-LIMS

[FP]-LIMS is a modular, web-based LIMS built on the former [Dia] modular database solution[2], and "adapts to your individual requirements and processes"[4] The company adds that "it is suitable for any level of requirement: whether it is a single installation with only one measuring device connected or an extensive, globally operating laboratory complex with hundreds of measuring devices."[4] The LIMS comes in a Light, Standard, and Professional edition.[5]


Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
