Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Environmental Management
  • Quality Systems

Background:

  • Environmental program decisions require a robust Quality Systems approach.
  • Components are often developed independently, leading to inconsistencies.
  • The U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Environmental Management (DOE-EM) seeks to standardize data collection and use.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe DOE-EM's approach to implementing a Quality Systems framework.
  • To highlight how DOE-EM achieves cost savings through integrated systems.

Main Methods:

  • Focus on three primary system components: Quality System guidance, Standardized Statement of Work for analytical services, and a laboratory assessment program.
  • Participation in interagency working groups.
