SampleServe and CloudLIMS Partner to Deliver Seamless Digital Integration from Field to Lab

Traverse City, MI – May 8, 2025SampleServe, a leading digital solution provider for environmental sampling and reporting, is excited to announce a strategic partnership with CloudLIMS, a SOC 2 compliant and ISO 9001:2015 certified laboratory informatics provider. Together, this collaboration bridges the gap between field sampling and laboratory processing, creating a truly end-to-end digital ecosystem for environmental testing firms and their labs.

The integration enables CloudLIMS users to receive fully digital Chain of Custody (COC) forms in real time from clients using the SampleServe platform. This eliminates paperwork, streamlines sample receiving, and dramatically improves data integrity and turnaround times. From field collection to LIMS entry, data now flows effortlessly—removing transcription errors and reducing manual labor for labs.

What This Means for CloudLIMS Users With SampleServe’s intuitive mobile app, field techs can capture GPS-tagged data, photos, custom field parameters, and automatically generate barcoded sample labels and digital COCs—all from the field. Through this new partnership, CloudLIMS users gain:

  • Real-Time Sample Tracking – View sampling progress from scheduling to in-transit status, giving lab teams a head start on planning.
  • Bottle Order Automation – Bottle orders are generated automatically as clients build sampling work scopes.
  • Digital Chain-of-Custody Transfers – Receive complete, legible, and timestamped COCs instantly—no scanning or paper handling.
  • Custom Sample Receiving Workflows – Labs can tailor digital intake checklists to fit their internal QA/QC process.
  • Pre-Configured Test Libraries – Clients select tests directly from the lab’s online catalog within the SampleServe platform.
  • Effortless Data Transfers to LIMS – COC and project data can be imported directly into the lab’s LIMS with no manual re-entry.
  • Free Lab Tools – All SampleServe lab tools—including the Lab Portal and Receiving App—are available at no cost to laboratories.
“SampleServe is designed to make sampling faster, easier, and more accurate in the field. With CloudLIMS, we’ve now connected that field data directly to the lab, eliminating delays and manual steps. Together, we’re creating a more efficient future for environmental labs and their clients.”Russell Schindler, CEO of SampleServe
“Our collaboration with SampleServe empowers labs to digitally integrate with their clients in the field. This seamless data flow improves accuracy, compliance, and turnaround time—everything modern labs care about.”Arun Apte, CEO of CloudLIMS
