'''Title''': ''LIMS Selection Guide for Materials Testing Laboratories''
Subpart M of the [[Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments]] (CLIA) details requirements and responsibilities for laboratory personnel, consultants, supervisors, and directors.<ref name="CLIARegsM">{{cite web |url=https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-42/chapter-IV/subchapter-G/part-493 |title=Title 42: Public Health, Part 493 — Laboratory Requirements |publisher=U.S. Government Publishing Office |date=13 May 2022 |accessdate=17 May 2022}}</ref> The exception to this is a laboratory with a certificate of waiver, where personnel requirements and proficiency testing is not required. However, manufacturers' instructions must still be carefully followed, and only CLIA-waived tests may be performed by the personnel.


For non-waived laboratories, the following resources provide paraphrasing of [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-42/chapter-IV/subchapter-G/part-493 CLIA Subpart M]:
