Short answer
Kintavo positions clinical lab quality work as daily workflows that create inspection evidence for QC, competency, lot qualification, maintenance, documents, and dashboards. Labs comparing alternatives should decide whether they need a broad quality workflow system, a CLIA compliance and QC layer, or a documentation/service product.

How to choose
- Map the daily workflows you need: QC entry, competency, lot qualification, maintenance, document review, PT, validation, and survey readiness.
- Ask whether evidence is generated at the moment work is performed or assembled later for inspection.
- Confirm the product role alongside your LIS: orders/results in the LIS, compliance and quality records in the quality layer.
