Lab Test & Quality Result Workflow App Built for Every Sample Type
Kissflow compares a lab result to its governing spec the instant it's entered, escalates an out-of-spec reading to the right reviewer, routes the disposition decision for approval, and generates the certificate of analysis once it's signed off, building a searchable record of every certificate issued.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
Not every lab result needs a hold decision. The ones that do can't wait for someone to notice the number is wrong on a printed sheet.
A produced-water sample, a corrosion coupon, a crude assay, a drilling fluid check, each one goes to the lab, comes back as a result, and gets compared against a spec that decides whether the material, the process, or the well moves forward. A printed lab sheet can hold a number. It can't compare that number to spec the instant it's entered, route an out-of-spec result to the right reviewer for a hold or retest decision, track how long a sample actually sat before testing, or generate the certificate a downstream customer or regulator asks for on demand.
Kissflow runs lab test and quality results as an inspection workflow instead of a printed lab sheet: sample and test request intake logged at the point of collection, result entry with automatic spec comparison the moment a number is captured, out-of-spec escalation that routes a failing result immediately for disposition, approval routing to the right signatory on record, and a searchable record of every certificate of analysis issued, alongside a dashboard tracking turnaround time and failure rate across sample types.
Where a lab result sits between the printed sheet and the decision it should trigger
Spec comparison happens manually
A result gets compared to spec whenever someone has time to check the reference table, sometimes after the material has already moved.
Out-of-spec results don't escalate
A failing result sits on a printed sheet until whoever reviews it next happens to notice.
Certificates get reconstructed by hand
A customer or regulator asks for a certificate of analysis, and someone rebuilds it from a filing cabinet of test sheets.
No visibility across sample types
Produced water, corrosion coupons, and crude assays each live in their own log, with no shared view of lab turnaround or failure rate.
Six modules. A result compared to spec the moment it lands.
Every module ships with default forms, routing, and dashboards. Configure each one to your sample types and spec rules.
Sample and test request intake
A sample is logged with its type, source, and the required test at the point of collection, before it ever physically reaches the lab.
Result entry and spec comparison
A result is compared to its spec automatically the moment it's entered, not on the next manual check.
Out-of-spec escalation
A failing result routes immediately to the right reviewer for a hold or disposition decision, instead of waiting to be noticed later.
Approval routing
Results that require sign-off, whether a release, a hold, or a retest, route automatically to the right approver on record for that spec.
Certificate of analysis records
A searchable record of every certificate issued, ready to produce without reconstructing it by hand.
Quality reporting dashboard
Turnaround time, failure rate, and trend visibility across every sample type and source, tracked in one dashboard instead of a spreadsheet.
From request to system of record in four steps
Initiate
A sample is logged with its type, source, and the specific test required before it is sent to the lab.
Conduct
The result is entered and compared to its governing spec automatically, the moment it is captured.
Flag
A failing result routes immediately for review and a hold, retest, or disposition decision.
Record
An approved result generates a certificate of analysis, added to the searchable record of every certificate issued.
What changes when lab test workflow runs on Kissflow
| Process | Before Kissflow | On Kissflow |
|---|---|---|
| Spec comparison | Checked manually, sometimes after the fact | Compared automatically the moment the result is entered |
| Out-of-spec results | Sit until someone notices the printed sheet | Escalate immediately to the right reviewer |
| Certificates | Reconstructed by hand from a filing cabinet | Generated and stored, ready to produce on request |
| Sample types | Each type logged separately with no shared view | One system across produced water, coupons, assays, and more |
| Turnaround visibility | Not tracked | Visible on a dashboard by sample type and source |
| Audit prep | Rebuilt from lab sheets under deadline | Pulled directly from the certificate record |
Connects to your LIMS or lab equipment where one exists; Kissflow adds the workflow and governance layer around results
Kissflow doesn't replace a lab information management system. Where one exists, this app runs the request, escalation, and certificate workflow around the results it produces; where it doesn't, this app is the record itself.


Built for the moment a result should trigger a decision
Spec comparison the moment a result lands
No waiting for a manual check against a reference table.
Out-of-spec results escalate immediately
A failing result routes to the right reviewer the instant it's flagged.
Certificates generated, not reconstructed
Every certificate of analysis is stored and searchable, ready to produce.
Live in weeks
Configure spec rules and escalation routing in the visual builder, or describe the use case to the AI Builder.
Governed from day one
Role-based access and a complete audit log are built into every result.
One view across every sample type
Turnaround and failure rate visible across produced water, coupons, assays, and more.

Get SupportRefinery Quality Control App is scoped to in-line batch testing tied to a hold-or-release decision as product moves through a refinery unit. Lab Test & Quality Result Workflow App is the broader upstream and midstream lab workflow, produced water, corrosion coupons, crude assays, drilling fluids, and more, not limited to a single batch-release moment.
Not where one already exists. This app adds the request, spec-comparison, escalation, and certificate workflow around the results a LIMS produces. Where there's no LIMS, this app serves as the record itself.
A result is checked against the configured spec for that test type the moment it's entered, flagging anything out of range.
Whoever you configure, typically a quality or lab supervisor, with the escalation happening automatically.
Yes, an approved result generates a certificate, stored in a searchable record.
Yes, each sample type has its own test requirements and spec configuration.
Configuration and AI-assisted app generation move delivery from a multi-month program to a matter of weeks.
Kissflow is certified to SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, and ISO/IEC 27001, with role-based access and a full audit log on every result.
