Effective January 1, 2024 we will be increasing the price of an annual Cal5.0 license from $1,320 to $1,500 per year. This is only the second price increase we have had in the last 10 years.
The reason for this increase is, of course, the general pressure on pricing and expenses we are all experiencing. Additionally, it recognizes the extraordinary value of having our cloud-based database, Chateau, available for housing the data along with adding Chateau’s industry-standard QC tools.
As a part of this process, we are proud to announce that Cal5.0 users, who are using Chateau to store and manage their calibration data, will have access to the full functionality of Chateau’s auditing, alert and porch tracking features for the most important aspects of their calibration data.
The following chart will detail the specific Calibration Audits currently available to Chateau users.
Please note that, with each audit, you can trigger an audit-specific, same-day email alert to an unlimited number of email addresses to any responsible party.
| 10 Days since On-Site Analyzer Cal | Any active analyzer and has not been calibrated in 10 or more days. |
| 72 Hours Since Last Daily Calibration | It has been 72 hours since the most recent Daily Calibration record on ANY analyzer. |
| 80 Days since Analyzer PreCal | Any active analyzer that has not been precision calibrated in 80 days or more. |
| Cylinders expiring In <30 Days | Any cylinder expiring in less than 30 days. |
| Any Failed Drift | Analyzer was calibrated and passed daily calibration, and then later that day failed any Drift Assessment. |
| No Noon Drift | Analyzer was calibrated and passed Daily Calibration, and no Drift Assessment was performed with 6 hours of that calibration time. |
| No Passing Second (EOD) Drift | Analyzer was calibrated and passed Daily Calibration, a passing Noon Drift was performed, and no Drift Assessment was performed within 6 hours of the noon drift for that day. |
| Inspections in last 30 Days with no Daily Calibration | This Audit only available for programs where Chateau is being used to manage the LDAR inspection and compliance program. |

As we make this announcement, we would like to take this opportunity to encourage all of our CalX.x customers who are using LTI Desktop to manage calibration records (and no other LTI software) to begin making plans to transition to Chateau as the state-of-the-art medium for storing their calibration data.
