Lesson Learned:

Use a different ID for your

sample than LOCID.

have a unique sample ID.

Lessons Learned

Contractor Learnings

FUDSChem preplanning greatly benefited efficiency of and

confidence in field work

Event planning identified gaps in sampling points as originally

planned

Ease of Automated Data Review with upload directly by lab resulted

in faster chemist validation time

Anticipate the initial investment of time and resources into learning

the system will result in higher quality data and future cost savings

USACE Jacksonville Learnings

Efficiency is gained by having all records in one location

Paperless reviews and approvals made easy via word wide web

Complete seamless package archived automatically for future

reference or legal litigation
