Forensic Information Management Should Be More Than a LIMS

Traditional LIMS platforms were originally designed to manage laboratory samples. However, modern forensic investigations require much more than sample tracking. In this webinar from Lab Manager’s Ask the Expert series, Dr. Robin McDonald, Senior Product Manager at LabVantage and former forensic laboratory manager, and Bob Hilbert, Director of Government and Forensic Solutions at LabVantage, discuss why forensic laboratories need more than a traditional LIMS. Drawing on decades of experience working with crime laboratories, the speakers explain how forensic investigations require a system that connects cases, evidence, laboratory testing, and chain of custody workflows across the entire investigation lifecycle. A modern Forensic Information Management System (FIMS) allows organizations to manage evidence collection, laboratory analysis, reporting, and collaboration with investigators within a single platform. By connecting these processes, forensic teams can reduce manual data entry, maintain evidence integrity, improve compliance with standards like ISO 17025, and streamline collaboration between laboratories, law enforcement agencies, and legal teams. This session also explores how integrated forensic informatics platforms help laboratories manage evidence storage, maintain audit trails, and support the growing demand for digital evidence management.
