Quality Programs

We at AAC Labs make quality our number one priority. We constantly strive for the highest quality of research and analytical data possible for our customers. The following is a number of major programs we developed over the years to achieve this standard.

  1. Our management team members are fully committed to a total quality system. Annual reviews, routine laboratory audits, corrective actions, and proper resource distribution are a few of the examples we program into our routine quality effort.
  2. We emphasize the total quality management process that covers corporate employee-training programs, instrument calibration, record retention and security, method development and validation, standard analytical methods, standard operating procedures, and regulatory compliance.
  3. We use our Nautilus Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to automate our sample tracking, testing, and reporting. This system allows us to achieve full sample accountability and traceability.
  4. Our quality documentation platform provides us with tools for documentation management and security measure.
  5. We respond immediately to questionable data, out-of-specification occurrences, equipment malfunctions, and other types of laboratory problems with an investigation and applicable corrective action; we document these activities and the reasons for the decisions made.
  6. We routinely perform equipment calibration and test Quality Control samples to ensure that each analytical system works to its expected optimum operating condition.
  7. We provide analytical reports according to customers’ requests. All reports are carefully reviewed by at least two persons to ensure clarity and accuracy.
  8. We use our documentation control system to track the revision and update of our quality manual, standard methods, SOPs, and protocols.
