THE 21ST CENTURY
Electronic Transfer of Data New contract required electronic data
deliverable Exelon defined fields and format Some data was not part of current login Decision made to transfer all of field data
electronically to Teledyne
Developing the Forms Process took cooperation
Began with Exelon/Normadeau sample collection sheet
Some modifications required Rules and training for samplers
Data can be updated Layout cannot be changed Must use valid values
New Chain of Custody
ELECTRONIC RECEIPT OF DATA
THE PROCESS
Delivery
Sample Collection/Receipt Sheets
Forms completed by samplers – Excel files Emailed to Teledyne email –
[email protected] or Posted on password protected ftp site. Hardcopy sent with samples
Print area only Serves as chain-of-custody
Loading data to Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)
Data is parsed Data can be viewed
before loading Checker program
verifies data Corrections can be
made Loaded to data base
Laboratory Login (Request for Analysis)
Acknowledgement
Report of Analysis
Advantages of Electronic Transfer of Data
No hand entry at login No transfer errors Review time reduced at Teledyne
laboratory Time reduced for Exelon review of
acknowledgement Field data included in Electronic Data
Deliverable
