BTSOFT is excited to announce our attendance at the Environmental Measurement Symposium, an important event for professionals working in environmental measurement and laboratory management. This conference provides a space for sharing knowledge and exploring ways to improve practices in the field.

About the Event

The symposium runs from Monday, August 4, to Friday, August 8, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency in St. Louis, Missouri. It is organized by The NELAC Institute (TNI) and the National Environmental Monitoring Conference (NEMC).

The event focuses on developments in technology, standards, and practices for environmental labs. More information about the symposium is available here.

What BTSOFT is Bringing

BTSOFT will be at booth 44 throughout the week, starting with Monday’s reception. On Tuesday and Wednesday, visitors can stop by the booth to see live demonstrations and learn how BTSOFT’s products can make lab processes more efficient.

A highlight will be BTSOFT’s ALPACA LIMS solution, a lab information management system designed to streamline operations for environmental labs. The platform is built with a strong emphasis on compliance, data security, and quality control. Its encryption techniques safeguard sensitive data and communications, while the browser-based interface offers easy accessibility without compromising your lab security.

On Tuesday, BTSOFT’s VP of Sales, Chris Couch, will present a talk addressing challenges faced by environmental laboratories when handling specialized testing data.

Chris will explore how these specialized workflows often lack structure and traceability within modern LIMS platforms, forcing labs to rely on custom spreadsheets or piecemeal processes that are error-prone and non-compliant. His presentation will introduce the concept of a Sample Data Management System (SDMS), which offers a LIMS-agnostic solution for automating data collection and ensuring traceability for all types of testing.

Get in Touch!

We look forward to seeing you! Whether you’re interested in seeing a product demo, asking questions, or discussing specific needs, our team is excited to connect.

To learn more or arrange a meeting before the symposium, visit BTSOFT’s website or use our contact page.

The Environmental Measurement Symposium is a chance to learn, connect, and share ideas with others in the environmental field. Networking with industry experts and seeing BTSOFT’s innovative solutions firsthand will give you new tools and insights to take back to your lab.

From May 21–23, 2025, BTSOFT will be headed to Clearwater Beach, Florida, to take part in the FSEA Spring Conference at the Marriott Sand Key—and we’re excited to connect with leaders in the laboratory space once again. 

Hosted by the Forum of State and Environmental Agencies (FSEA), this annual spring conference is a cornerstone event for laboratory professionals from across the U.S. who are focused on regulatory compliance, data quality, and operational efficiency in state and federal lab environments. It’s where directors, scientists, managers, and solution providers come together to explore challenges, share solutions, and shape the future of laboratory management.

Who We Are 

As a provider of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), BTSOFT is proud to be part of the conversation. ALPACA LIMS, our flagship platform, is designed specifically to help labs streamline their operations—from sample tracking and reporting to workflow automation and quality assurance. 

But ALPACA is more than just a LIMS. We’re expanding what’s possible for public sector labs with powerful, integrated solutions like: 

• ALPACA Micro ELN – A digital lab notebook tailored for microbiologists, helping teams document, organize, and search experimental data with ease. 
• ALPACA SDMS – A sample data management system that centralizes files, raw data, and metadata from instruments, making it easier to access, review, and archive information securely.

These tools work seamlessly with ALPACA LIMS to help labs create a smarter, more connected workflow—no matter the size or complexity of the organization. 

Why Events Like FSEA Matter 

For public sector laboratories, staying ahead of changing regulations and evolving testing demands requires more than just a reliable system. It requires insight, connection, and collaboration with peers facing the same issues. 

The FSEA Spring Conference provides that opportunity. 

Attendees can expect sessions on topics such as: 

• Laboratory accreditation and quality system updates 
• New approaches to PFAS analysis and other emerging contaminants 
• Managing laboratory data in an increasingly digital world 
• Case studies from state labs implementing process improvements 
• Vendor exhibits highlighting tools and technologies driving lab performance

These sessions align directly with BTSOFT’s mission: empowering laboratories with the tools they need to meet strict compliance requirements, reduce reporting errors, and improve data transparency. 

Come See Us in Clearwater Beach 

We’re currently registered and awaiting our booth assignment—but we’ll be there and ready to talk about how ALPACA LIMS, ALPACA Micro ELN, and ALPACA SDMS are helping laboratories solve real-world problems. 

Whether you’re looking to upgrade an aging system, preparing for your next audit, or simply want a more flexible LIMS that adapts to your unique needs, we’d love to show you how BTSOFT can help. 

And if you’ve already partnered with us? Stop by and say hello! We’d love to hear how your system is performing and share some of the latest features and updates we’ve rolled out this year.
