Appreciate all of the benefits of CDD Inventory
- Improves research efficiency
- Saves time and money
- Assures user compliance
- Uses a familiar user interface
- Ensures Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) Compliance
- Integrates with laboratory operations
- Customizes to lab procedures
- Enhances Laboratory safety
- Ensures emergency preparedness
- Is an affordable solution
1. Improves research efficiency
- Needed supplies can be located quickly and easily, at local or remote sites
- Purity, amount available, & properties can be checked before retrieving material
- Quickly find out who in the lab has experience with materials you need to use
2. Saves time and money
- Why order a chemical if it is already available in the labs?
3. Assures user compliance
- Barcode interface makes registration/retrieval of batches easy
- Intuitive user interface makes it easy for busy scientists to keep inventory up-to-date
4. Uses a familiar user interface
- CDD Vault uses common GUI for all chemical and biological information handling
- Property, similarity & other searches can easily be performed for inventory materials
5. Ensures Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) compliance
- CDD Vault Inventory reports can ensure GLP compliance for all materials used
- GLP compliance is required for data submitted to FDA
- Government laboratory inspectors expect accountability for all chemicals
- CDD Vault Inventory can track controlled substances as required by federal regulations
- CDD Vault Inventory can use sample expiration dates to initiate removal of stale materials and link to proper disposal practices
6. Integrates with laboratory operations
- Same CDD Vault system for inventory, compound/batch registration, sample/plate handling,
assay data handling, structure searching, property calculations, reports, etc.
7. Customizes to lab procedures
- Business rules can be defined to control access to particular materials
- Routine reports on inventory consumption are easily created
8. Enhances laboratory safety
- CDD Vault Inventory can flag hazardous materials (flammable, toxic, explosive, etc.) and ensure they are housed appropriately (in cabinets, fume hoods, etc.)
- CDD Vault Inventory can link chemicals to their material safety data sheets (MSDS) to ensure proper handling
9. Ensures emergency preparedness
- In case of fire or accident, fire marshals require a list of all materials, their quantity, location, and flammability index; CDD Vault Inventory can quickly produce such reports
10. Is an affordable solution
- No separate server hardware or software required, no IT support for maintenance and security needed
- Full maintenance of this cloud-based application is provided by CDD
