Sample identity
State how the bottle connects to the asset, sample point, custody record and any collection exception.
Quality criteria / transparent routing
Trust starts with what can be checked.
Before a sample moves, the receiving location, method, applicable quality status, QC approach and reviewer should be clear.
Before collection
What the quoted route should make clear.
VeriFluid will document what is known for the requested work before collection. If a status or route is still being confirmed, it should be stated as such. No blanket accreditation or manufacturer approval is implied.
Method fit
Confirm the current procedure, fluid applicability, reporting limit and any method modification.
Quality checks
Identify the calibration and QC checks that apply to the quoted method.
Technical review
State who reviews the result, interpretation, uncertainty and need for escalation.
Route transparency
Disclose where each test is performed and the quality status that applies there.
Data handoff
Keep measured values, units, normalized fields and interpretation clearly separated.
Software and review
Software can assist. A person should approve.
Where software is used, it can normalize units, apply configured checks, find changes and prioritize cases. It should not overwrite the reported instrument result or release an interpretation without human review.
- Preserve
Keep the reported result and sample identity separate from later interpretation.
- Normalize
Make units, naming and baseline references comparable without hiding the source value.
- Assist
Use configured checks and trend tools to flag results that need attention.
- Review
Have a named technical reviewer own the interpretation and release decision.
Qualification status
Ask for the scope, not just the badge.
Manufacturer participation, ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation and method-scope claims should be supported by the applicable written authorization, certificate and published scope.
If a method is routed to another laboratory, that route and its applicable quality status should be stated before collection. References to Dow or DOWFROST™ describe product context only.
