End-to-end electronic field sampling and submission

SGS eCOC simplifies the creation and management of your Chain of Custody, helping you maintain control of your projects through a user-friendly planning interface, field mobile application and fully electronic eCOC submission to the lab.

Key Benefits:

  • Minimizes Errors: Eliminate the risk of reporting issues caused by illegible handwriting.
  • Quality Control Pre-Run: Ensure sample quality and analysis accuracy with pre-analysis checks by project team members, enhancing data reliability.
  • Prevents Missing Samples: Preloading all sample information reduces the likelihood of overlooking samples, ensuring comprehensive analysis.
  • Enhances Turnaround Times: Immediate notification to the lab expedites processing, reducing TATs for faster results.
  • Reduces Risk of COC Damage: Say goodbye to the risk of COCs getting damaged in transit (by ice, liquid, or solids), as they remain digital and easily accessible.

 

SGS eCOC is a powerful mobile application designed to revolutionize how sampling technicians manage and submit Chain of Custody (COC) forms. Available for both Android and iOS, the app enables users to create, sign, and submit electronic COCs directly to SGS laboratories—completely paper-free. Whether you’re in the field or offline, SGS eCOC ensures your data is captured accurately and efficiently.

By integrating seamlessly with SGS Planner, users can pre-create sampling events and push them to the eCOC app, reducing manual entry and speeding up fieldwork. With digital signatures, offline functionality, and instant submission capabilities, SGS eCOC empowers teams to work smarter, faster, and with greater confidence in their data integrity.

One of the standout features of SGS eCOC is its ability to streamline sampling events. Using SGS Planner, project managers can create and schedule events, assign them to technicians, and push them directly to the eCOC app. These events appear as pre-filled COCs, minimizing field data entry and reducing errors.

Technicians can view event details, complete sampling tasks, and submit results in real time. The app tracks progress and syncs with SGS Planner, providing live updates on sample status and completion rates. This integration not only improves field efficiency but also enhances visibility and accountability across your sampling operations.

User management within SGS Planner allows administrators to assign specific roles for eCOC access. Sampling technicians can be granted permissions to create and submit COCs for designated projects directly through the mobile app. This ensures that only authorized personnel can access and modify sampling data, maintaining the integrity of your workflow.

Administrators can easily add or remove users, assign roles, and manage access levels. Regular users are limited to their assigned projects, while admin users have full visibility and control. This flexible structure supports both small teams and large organizations, ensuring secure and efficient collaboration across all sampling activities.

Getting started with SGS eCOC is quick and user-friendly. Simply download the app from your preferred app store and sign in using your SGS credentials. If you’re new to the platform, your SGS project manager can provide a welcome email to help you set up your account. The app is designed to work independently or in tandem with SGS Planner, depending on your role and needs.

Once logged in, users can immediately access assigned sampling events, view project details, and begin creating electronic COCs. The app’s intuitive interface ensures that even first-time users can navigate with ease.
