seamless flow of information Field Lab Office
automate the process – efficiency and accuracy • Secure transfer of data between you and the lab • Pre-entered analysis methods • Use previous CoCs to create new ones • Flag samples with short hold times and short turnaround • Notify lab courier that samples are ready • Find out when sample shipment is received Eliminate confusion, error, and delay.
