The Problem
Your lab data is scattered.
Your CoAs pay the price.
Quality managers in food and nutraceutical production juggle results from multiple external labs, dozens of specifications, and zero tolerance for error with a workflow that's still built around email, Excel, and copy-paste.
✗Results buried in email
PDF reports arrive from 5 different labs in 5 different formats. Someone has to find, open, and manually reconcile each one before the CoA can even be started.
✗Copy-paste into Excel
Every transcription is a risk. One wrong cell, one stale value pasted from a previous lot and a non-conforming batch gets released.
✗No real audit trail
When an auditor asks "who signed this CoA and which data supported it?", digging through shared folders costs hours and sometimes the answer simply isn't there.
✗10 Word templates to maintain
Each client or regulation demands a slightly different CoA layout. Maintaining those templates manually is a full-time job with a permanent version-conflict problem.
✗Batch release is a bottleneck
One missing result from one external lab holds up the entire lot. No visibility into what's complete, what's pending, what's overdue.
✗Data locked in PDFs forever
All that analytical history hundreds of lots, thousands of results sits in archived PDFs that no one can aggregate, trend, or use for supplier qualification.
How It Works
From raw results to signed CoA in minutes.
A fully connected workflow from control plan definition to batch release, with every data point traced and every decision documented.

Set parameters, analytical methods (ISO, USP, Ph.Eur.), acceptance criteria, and testing frequencies once per product.
Import third-party lab reports, supplier CoAs, in-house results, and calculated values, all mapped to your standardized catalogue.
Your results are matched to your control plan, conformity is checked in real time, and the right client template is populated automatically. Your CoA is ready.
Electronic signature workflow with full audit trail. The signed CoA is version-locked, archived, and retrievable in seconds for any audit.
Key Capabilities
Built for the people who
sign their name on quality.
Purpose-designed for the analytical complexity of nutraceuticals and food ingredients not a generic LIMS adapted for the occasion.
🏗️
Centralized Analytical Catalogue
All methods, norms, techniques and units in one reference library. Standardized once, applied consistently across every product, lot, and client.

Native Control Plan → CoA Link
No gap between what you committed to test and what appears on the CoA. Every result is traced back to a batch, method, and quality decision.

Third-Party Lab Data Integration
Consolidate results from all external labs regardless of format. CIKLab maps incoming data to your internal catalogue no duplicates, no confusion.
LIMS connectivity🔐
Electronic Signature & Audit Trail
Role-based access, timestamped approvals, and a complete change history. Your CoAs are locked, traceable, and legally defensible from the moment of release.
