QC / Quality Control Labs

Whether you're testing incoming raw materials, running in-process checks, or releasing finished products, Aliquora gives you a structured way to track samples from receipt through final approval.

What Aliquora handles for QC Labs

  • Track raw material, in-process, and finished product samples
  • Automatic out-of-spec flagging against configured limits
  • Review and approval workflow before releasing results
  • Generate Certificates of Analysis (COAs) as PDFs
  • Audit log support for key sample and result actions

How it works

A typical qc labs workflow in Aliquora

  1. 1

    Log the sample

    Register incoming raw materials, in-process pulls, or finished-product lots with a unique sample ID, collection date, and material type. Attach any relevant batch or lot numbers.

  2. 2

    Assign tests and spec limits

    Select the test panel for the sample. Specification ranges — minimum, maximum, or target — are pre-configured per test type so every result is evaluated consistently.

  3. 3

    Enter or import results

    Enter instrument readings manually or upload a CSV export. Aliquora immediately compares each value against its configured spec and highlights any out-of-spec result.

  4. 4

    Investigate OOS flags

    Out-of-spec results require a documented decision before the sample can advance: confirm the failure, retest, or override with a justification. The audit log captures every action.

  5. 5

    Approve and generate the COA

    An authorized reviewer signs off on the completed results. Aliquora generates a PDF Certificate of Analysis with your lab's branding, ready to attach to shipments or share with clients.

Aliquora's audit trail logs who entered, edited, reviewed, and approved every result — supporting the traceability requirements common in ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 quality programs.

Frequently asked questions

How does Aliquora handle an out-of-spec result?
When a result falls outside its configured spec range, Aliquora flags it immediately and blocks the sample from advancing to approval until a documented disposition is recorded — whether that's a confirmed failure, a retest, or an authorized override with a written justification.
Can we brand the COA with our lab's logo?
Yes. COA PDFs include your lab name and contact information. Custom logo support is available on paid plans.
Do we need IT infrastructure to get started?
No. Aliquora is a cloud-based SaaS; you log in through your browser. There's no server to install or maintain.
Can multiple people enter results at the same time?
Yes. Aliquora supports multiple concurrent users. Role-based permissions control who can log samples, enter results, and approve.
