Food & Feed Labs

Faster Results, Accredited Confidence.

Tie every instrument result to samples, methods, and calibrations so each report leaves the lab right first time – and every analyst, QA lead, and lab manager works from the same source of truth, from sample receipt to signed report.

The Reality on the Bench

Familiar painpoints in food & feed labs.

Sample backlogs, method and calibration drift, and audit-trail gaps slow turnaround and put accreditation at risk — especially when instruments, results, and QC live in separate systems.

Turnaround pressure & backlogs

Sample queues, manual transcription, and results scattered across instruments and spreadsheets stretch turnaround times — while clients and production wait on the report.

Accreditation & audit-trail gaps

ISO 17025 evidence, method validation, and calibration records live in binders and email. Preparing for an audit means chasing paperwork instead of pulling a report.

Multi-instrument & method drift

Benches run different analysers, methods, and matrices — dairy, grain, meat, feed. Calibration status and SPC rules don’t roll up, so consistency is hard to prove across the lab.

One platform for every lab instrument and every method.

FOSS IQX brings analysers, lab instruments, and supplier quality into one easy-to-use platform — so your analysts, QA leads, and lab managers stay accredited, reduce risk, and move faster from sample receipt to signed report.

How It Works

From instruments to insight, in three steps.

No rip-and-replace. IQX connects the analysers you already run, brings their results into one place, and turns them into decisions your teams can act on.

  1. Connect your instruments

    Link MilkoScan, BactoScan, and lab instruments across every collection point, silo, and plant — no FTP, no new hardware, no downtime.

  2. Centralize the data

    Fat, protein, SNF, and safety results roll up into one source of truth — tied to lots, suppliers, and recipes, with calibration and SPC status visible across sites.

  3. Act with confidence

    Faster HOLD/RELEASE, cleaner producer payment, audit-ready records — every team working from the same numbers, from farm gate to finished product.

Built for Labs

Everything you need, working together.

Instrument health, 24/7.

Instrument Health Reports deliver real-time diagnostics and predictive insights — spotting early signs of wear, calibration drift, and failures before they cost you downtime or a re-run.

Instrument Sample Sets view

Store sample sets with confidence.

Instrument Sample Sets streamlines calibration and validation with structured, high-quality references — so consistency, accuracy, and accreditation evidence travel with every result.

Standardize methods yourself.

The Methods module standardizes testing parameters across instruments for consistent results — simpler setup, easier management, and far less variability from bench to bench.

Tie every instrument result to samples, methods, and calibrations — so your analysts, QA leads, and lab managers cut turnaround, prove consistency, and stay audit-ready, from sample receipt to signed report.

Questions, Answered

The things labs ask us first.

Does it work with the instruments we already run?

Yes. IQX connects the FOSS analysers already on your benches — MilkoScan, BactoScan, Kjeltec, Soxtec, and NIR instruments — with no rip-and-replace and no new hardware to install.

Does it support ISO 17025 accreditation?

IQX keeps calibration records, method validation, and audit trails centralized and on hand, so the evidence an accreditation audit calls for is a report rather than a paperwork scramble. Your quality team stays in control of the process; IQX makes the records easy to produce.

How does it handle data migration?

Once instruments are connected, day-to-day results flow into IQX automatically — no manual export. For historical records, our team works with you on a structured import during onboarding, so nothing stays stranded in spreadsheets or binders.

Is it cloud-based, and where is our data stored?

IQX is a cloud platform with data hosted in the EU, so your results and quality records stay within European data-residency requirements. Access is role-based, so analysts, QA, and management each see what’s relevant to them.

How is IQX priced?

Pricing scales with your operation — the number of benches, instruments, and which suites you run (Device Management, Supplier Quality, or both). The best next step is a short call so we can scope it to your lab and give you an accurate figure.

How long does it take to get up and running?

Because IQX connects to instruments you already have, most labs see their benches and data centralized quickly, without disrupting sample throughput. Timelines depend on the number of benches and instruments — we’ll map a rollout plan with you during onboarding.
