About Us


About Khemia Software

Khemia Software is a premier provider of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) for the environmental, water/wastewater, food & beverage, manufacturing and chemical industries. Founded in 1995, the company has successfully implemented its LIMS in numerous laboratories across the United States and internationally. Our professionals have extensive experience working within laboratories and understand the challenges that clients face. Combining this background with over 20 years of product development has culminated in Omega, our most feature-rich and configurable LIMS to date.

History

The Khemia Company, based out of Denver, Colorado, first introduced the Omega LIMS in 1995. The product initially featured a pure MS Access front and back end. Since then, Omega has undergone substantial development as the scope of a modern LIMS has continued to evolve and include greater aspects of laboratory operations and business management. In 2004, the Omega back end was upgraded to MS SQL Server, significantly increasing its storage capacity, speed, stability and security. Two years later, the Khemia Company was acquired by its current ownership, re-located to Livonia, Michigan and renamed to Khemia Software, Inc. In 2007, Omega 11 further improved on its predecessor with yet more functionality, including new general management dashboards, improved workflow automation and chronological sample audit trails. Since its founding, Khemia Software has continuously expanded its operations by adding personnel, further improving the flagship Omega LIMS and serving a wider client base across the United States.

Who We Are

Khemia Software is a leading developer of LIMS solutions designed specifically for analytical laboratories. Founded by a team of chemists, software engineers, and laboratory professionals, we’ve spent more than two decades helping labs handle complex workflows with ease.

Our flagship product, Omega LIMS, is a scalable, customizable platform trusted by laboratories across North America. Built for speed, accuracy, and compliance, Omega LIMS supports everything from sample login and tracking to final report delivery. It also includes automated QC checks, audit trails, and instrument integration.

Every line of code, each module we design, and every support call we take reflects our commitment to helping labs succeed.

 

Our Philosophy

Laboratories operate under constant pressure. They must meet regulatory standards, deliver fast turnaround, manage rising sample volumes, and still maintain data accuracy. We understand this because our team comes from the lab world.

We believe the best LIMS:

  • Fits your workflows, not the other way around
  • Reduces repetitive work and human error
  • Enables collaboration across teams and locations
  • Improves regulatory readiness
  • Grows with you—without needing a full system overhaul

That’s why we build systems that prioritize flexibility, scalability, and performance.
