Bika Branches
The generic Bika configuration and functionality are replicated in Bika Branches, supplemented with add-ons as applicable and then configured with data sets for the discipline
Bika Food
For the Food and Beverage sector
These implementations often feature extensive food safety specifications, different for all the many sample types normally handled by these labs, from raw meat, seafood and dairy, egg, grains fruits and vegetables as well processed, frozen, canned or dried versions; Alcoholic, non-alcoholic and concentrated beverages; Animal feed; Packaging
Food labs are often set up for analyses configured per food class, in organic and inorganic, organic, additive, mycotoxin and pesticide categories and big microbiology component
Bika Cannabis
Additional attributes
Strain, Lot #, Cultivation Batch etc. Client and Lab licensing - In addition to that of the lab, Multiple licences for Clients. Licence Types, Registration Number and issuing Authority
Cannabis specific Certificate of Analysis - Early example, customisable
State Limits are used to configure analysis specifications. Results beyond regulatory specification configured are highlighted in views and results certificates, COAs
Since analysis request objects may include a 100 and more tests, big batches are processed in an asynchronous background queue

Bika Water - Environmental management
Configured for water quality and environmental management, testing water matrices: bottled, drinking, ground, irrigation, potable, recreational, river, sea, and surface water; sewage, wastewater and industrial effluent; for treatment, water from boilers, condensers and cooling systems
Analyses are typically configured in categories for Anions, Inorganic Non-metallic, Metals and Cations, Organic, Microbiology, Physical Properties, Pollutants, Volatile and Non Volatile Pesticides
Sample points are often grouped per location, e.g all the places in a village or building where samples are collected. Field results are captured
Water labs often do their own Sampling - this workflow step is enabled in the configuration and users set up with Sampler authorisation
Samples are partitioned and sample in differently preserved containers depending on which tests have to be carried out
Calculations, apart from standard dilution and weight loss formulas, may include complex Langelier and Ryznar corrosion and scale index calculations
Analysis specifications are usually configured to country drinking water quality standards or that of the World Health Organisation
In some instances water labs also analyse soil and air samples in environmental health and agricultural applications

Bika Health
Adds Patients and Diagnosis to the general Bika setup, for use in health care and veterinary settings
An older version, still in use, features full clinical case management
Clinics, hospital wards and general practitioners are set up as LIMS clients, and their contacts as care givers. Per region and district which makes the system suitable for epidemiology
It also features a regulatory inspector role, patient or insurer billing
Bika Health has seen specialised deployment for Ebola, EID and VL cases and successfully interfaced to EMR/HIS

Bika Fire Assay
Used in mining and exploration labs to analyse for say precious metals using mainly atomic absorption and x-ray diffraction methods after fire assay and other extraction methods
Samples are vigorously prepared, crushed, milled, sized and split and these steps, with and without measurements are set up as analysis services ordered in the sequence the steps are executed
Bulk sample intakes are read in from spreadsheets and delivery slips
Bika Tribos
For use in tribology labs measuring the properties of lubricants used in big machinery and transformers for maintenance information
Sample points are configured on theses as locations
