Automated generation of audit-ready logs

Purpose

 1.1. Automate the creation, storage, and retrieval of immutable, audit-ready logs for biochemistry laboratory activities, including equipment calibration, reagent usage, sample tracking, data acquisition, compliance checks, corrective actions, and report releases.
 1.2. Ensures laboratories meet regulatory standards (e.g., GLP, CLIA, ISO 15189) by automating record-keeping, timestamping, and access trails for every critical process and communication.
 1.3. Provides automated reconciling of actions from lab instruments, LIMS, and personnel for thorough compliance and incident auditability.

Trigger Conditions

 2.1. Automation triggered on laboratory workflow completions (e.g., experiment finalization, instrument calibration).
 2.2. Automated notifications on regulatory checklist execution or deviation detection.
 2.3. Scheduled daily, weekly, or monthly log generation automator runs.
 2.4. Automated alerting upon modifications to sensitive records or user access attempts.
