Event Tracking Report
Lesson Learned:
Use a different ID for your
sample than LOCID.
Each sampling event must
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
