Somerset, NJ – LabVantage Solutions, a global leader in laboratory informatics, announces that they have been selected to replace an existing, custom laboratory information management system (LIMS) at Kennametal Inc.’s Quentin C. McKenna Technology Center in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.  A global industrial technology leader, Kennametal delivers productivity to customers seeking peak performance in demanding environments by providing innovative custom and standard wear-resistant solutions. The company employs more than 12,000 team members worldwide and generated nearly $2.1 billion in revenues last year.

Kennametal’s technology organization was in search of a way to increase productivity through its analytical laboratories by upgrading an aging LIMS with a newer, more streamlined LIMS offering a range of services.  Some of the features that attracted Kennametal to upgrade to LIMS with LabVantage were sample status tracking, resource management, easy results entry, instrument integration, data validation, recordkeeping, ad-hoc querying, and reporting capabilities.
