Lab Testing & Management (LIMS)
LIMS for geotechnical, construction materials testing, and inspection firmsAchieve efficient lab operations with real-time visibility
Lab staff often receive samples with missing or unclear details, like which tests are needed or what project they belong to. Without this information, samples can be misplaced, assigned incorrectly, or tested the wrong way—causing errors, delays, and added costs.
MetaField helps keep everything organized by making sure samples are tracked and all key details are easy to access. This gives everyone the information they need to work efficiently and keep projects moving.

Customer Testimonial
LIMS is very valuable to us. The laboratory side connects with field data collection and reporting. We have the ability to see everything in MetaField without having to call the lab and find out what information they need in order to run their test in the field and compute their data.
Customer Testimonial
We now have a framework in place that enables us to eliminate paper and manual processing and gives us a platform to achieve our growth goals and gain competitive advantage through improved access to information from the field to the lab to the client.
Streamlined report approval and delivery
Once testing is complete, reports are generated and routed to management for review and approval. MetaField enables secure, compliant digital signatures, allowing teams to quickly review and sign reports, then send them directly to customers via built-in email or a client portal—accelerating turnaround while ensuring accuracy and accountability.
