CCL Nutricontrol chose to adopt Labs-of-Time®
LabWing’s ”Virtual front-office for the lab” convinces major player in food sector
Breda/Veghel, Holland, 28 April 2006 – CCL B.V., a renowned food laboratory in the
southern part of The Netherlands, signed today an agreement with LabWing, developer
of innovative software applications for the laboratory sector, regarding the
purchase and implementation of Labs-of-Time, a sophisticated web-application for
on-line ordering of analyses and reporting of test results.
CCL will introduce the application on a vast scale for its customers in the dairy
and meat industries. As soon as Labs-of-Time will be up and running, the
application will be processing several hundreds of thousands of results pro annum.
An important reason for automating the ordering process is the growing
unwillingness customers demonstrate to pay extra for the manual registration of
orders and samples. With Labs-of-Time, data and specifications of service requests
are entered just once, by the customer himself.
Furthermore, CCL is now capable of communicating preliminary results, without faxes
and phone calls taking up precious production time of laboratory staff.
Some other decisive arguments for CCL to embark on Labs-of-Time, is the possibility
of keeping exact track of services rendered by means of the historic overview, and
the fact that terms and conditions are clearly determined and effortlessly
retrieved for each contract the client and CCL conclude, which forgoes possible
misunderstandings on that part of their dealings.
The implementation of Labs-of-Time will take up approximately two months.
Thereafter, CCL will start by servicing its major large-volume customers.
Undoubtedly other clients will follow suit once they appreciate the significant
advantages Labs-of-Time represents in terms of speed and precision.
