The What, When and How of goPLIMS
Every successful collaboration depends on its manager.
Every successful manager depends on their tools.
goPLIMS is an Irish headquartered software development firm born from our project management experiences and our frustrations with the available spreadsheet solution. Some simple and versatile solutions, despite their advantages, fall short, especially in monitoring projects within regulated sectors.
goPLIMS stands out as a unique and intuitive work management platform built to stringent regulatory guidelines, meeting data integrity and data security. It is not only reliable but also cost-effective. We have seamlessly integrated well-established tools such as Kanban, action registers, and traditional visual management tools into our software – tools you already rely on.
Every successful deliverable is a product of the experiences and wisdom garnered from past work. Consequently, goPLIMS is continuously enhancing its software suite, introducing improved versions and rolling out new modules and solutions crafted in response to our clients’ invaluable feedback.
Responsibility, proactivity, honesty, and a constant pursuit of improvement are what drive goPLIMS.

Client Testimonials
“We used the ActionR system for a complex pharmaceutical packaging line project. Especially due to the involvement of 5 different stakeholders, it was of great value in distributing and tracking mutual tasks over a period of 18 months.”
Timo Schmieg, Project Manager, Bausch+Ströbel
“I had the pleasure of using the ActionR tracking software recently on a complex project. It was far superior to other project management software I have used. My colleagues using ActionR found it to be a quick and easy way to communicate action status across multiple departments.”
Russell Teague, Sr. Project Manager, RemTech LLC
“I’ve used ActionR on several projects and found it keeps teams focused on their commitments. The central repository of actions has helped people from multiple offices and companies to stay informed and on task. Love the integration of meeting minutes and actions also.”
William Lacey, Founder, Lumus Ltd
“Smart teams need smart tools and the goPLIMS software offers global or hybrid teams a single source of truth to foster greater visibility, ownership and accountability for the management of their workflows, facilitating critical knowledge retention and capturing key decisions and the criteria supporting those choices for future reference. goPLIMS is easy to use, enabling prioritisation of tasks due and avoiding overburdening of individual resources which can contribute to bottlenecks or delays in the successful completion of time-critical tasks. Teams can raise concerns early and proactively seek solutions before they become problems. The visual dashboards offer a powerful ‘project at a glance’ feature for all team members to stay up to date on current status and any project risks.”
Nuala Calnan, QRMI
In 2021, we began using your software platform “goPLIMS” for our greenfield capital project management. A central platform for all project activities, procurement activities, and validation activities has helped to improve collaboration and coordination. With the ‘Action Register platform, ‘ActionR’ we are able to maintain a secure and continuous log of all activities, support knowledge retention, and keep a central record of all meeting minutes. Also, the secure platform serves as a tool for managing the project’s commitment system.
The platform has helped the cross-functional teams in complete tracking and coordinating all major activities. The ‘Punchlist Management’ platform has helped in managing the entire construction and commissioning punchlist in the central platform. The central management of ‘Request for Information’ platform has helped central and compliant management of RFI with the vendor and cross-functional teams.
With the ability to prioritise tasks, kanban boards for quick management, and daily remainders to the project teams, the project has been able to save valuable time and improve efficiency.
Thanks for your support
“We’ve been using goPLIMS for some time now, and I must say, it’s been a game-changer for our workflow management. This secure cloud-based platform has not only streamlined our processes but has truly driven digital transformation across our organization.
One of the standout features of goPLIMS is its unwavering focus on data integrity and security. In an age where data breaches are a constant concern, having a platform that prioritizes the safety of our sensitive information is invaluable. With goPLIMS, we can trust that our data is protected, allowing us to work with peace of mind.
Additionally, goPLIMS has revolutionized the way our cross-functional teams collaborate. The software suite enables seamless collaboration, allowing us to track, coordinate, and securely collaborate across various projects and tasks. This level of integration has greatly enhanced our productivity and efficiency.
Specifically, the software modules like ActionR, PunchM, RFI-M, and BatchM have been incredibly useful in managing different aspects of our projects. ActionR has helped us centrally manage all our team-based actions and tasks, while PunchM has allowed us to document and track snags and defects until satisfactory closure. RFI-M has helped us formalize our requests for information and keep all stakeholders in the loop until issues are resolved, and BatchM has become our go-to platform for automating batch processes efficiently.
goPLIMS has exceeded our expectations in every aspect. It’s not just a software platform; it’s a partner in our success.I would highly recommend goPLIMS to any organization looking to elevate their workflow management to the next level.”
