# Every case. Every metric. Total visibility. ## Prima for Lab Management Prima gives lab managers a live window into everything happening in the lab. Real-time QA notifications ping you the moment they occur and before they become problems. Turnaround time analytics, volumetric data, and robust reporting give you the data to make informed decisions, allocate staff effectively, and meet regulatory requirements. Full chain-of-custody audit trails and exportable reports simplify compliance reviews and internal audits. Whether you are on the floor or in a meeting, Prima keeps you connected and in control. ## Capabilities for Lab Management Prima features built with Lab Management in mind. - [Specimen, Cassette & Slide Tracking](/content/capabilities/tracking/index.html) Follow every specimen, cassette/block, and slide through their entire lifecycle with barcode-driven precision. -
