STL Introduce Automated Process for Scheduling Analysis

Working in partnership with Viridor and EHS Data (developers of Monitor-Pro software), STL have developed an automated solution for collecting data on the analytical requirements of their customers.

As part of their Environmental Permitting obligations, Viridor, one of the UK’s leading waste management companies, send over 10,000 samples a year to STL for environmental analysis. To speed up the analytical process, STL use a pre-registration system to record the testing requirements of each of Viridor’s sites, before samples arrive at the laboratory. Previously, this data was entered into STL’s management systems manually, a lengthy task that inevitably led to data entry errors. Any incorrectly entered data would delay the reporting of analysis to Viridor, who require a timely and consistent data service to meet Environment Agency deadlines for submitting analytical results.

By working with Viridor and their database provider, EHS Data, STL have been able to develop an automated system that allows all of Viridor’s analytical requirements to be electronically transferred between Viridor and STL’s systems. By automating the process, STL have been able to eliminate data entry errors and the associated delays in reporting analytical results, as well as increasing the reliability of the services Viridor receive. EHS Data are now offering this upgrade to all their software users, which will allow other STL customers using Monitor-Pro to benefit from the same automation of their analytical scheduling.
