EPA SW-846 method templates are bespoke per lab
100-300 hr/lab to set up template library on legacy LIMS
EPA SW-846 method bundle (8260B, 8270D, 6010D, 7470A) ships with QC criteria pre-loaded
AssayCore Env is designed for environmental testing laboratories operating under EPA, ISO 17025, and state regulatory frameworks. The platform covers drinking water, wastewater, groundwater, ambient air, stack emissions, soil contamination, and hazardous waste characterization. Rigorous chain of custody, hold time tracking, method detection limit management, and automated regulatory limit comparison ensure defensible data. LIMS-to-LIMS data exchange and eDWR/STORET export are supported.
Compliance & Standards
Complete feature set covering every stage of your laboratory workflow.
Concrete laboratory pain — quantified — and how AssayCore Env addresses each.
EPA SW-846 method bundle (8260B, 8270D, 6010D, 7470A) ships with QC criteria pre-loaded
Built-in MDL wizard (40 CFR Part 136 Appendix B) with t99 calculation and audit pack
Hold-time clock per analyte starts at sampling; auto-flag breaches before analysis
RCRA TCLP workflow links zero-headspace extractor → ICP-MS → regulatory limit comparison
Continuous NELAP precision/bias dashboard with autogenerated assessment packet
Templated eDWR (Safe Drinking Water Information System) and STORET XML profiles
Bundled CPU-only inference. Open datasets, transparent metrics, lab-tunable thresholds.

Honest side-by-side. Where competitors lead we say so; where we lead, we show how.
| Competitor | Their offer | AssayCore Env |
|---|---|---|
| Locus EIM | Strong environmental data store; weak MDL wizard, expensive seat-licensing | Built-in MDL wizard + flat product pricing; STORET / eDWR templated exports |
| ESdat | Geochemistry visualization; no NELAP precision/bias dashboard | Continuous NELAP precision/bias dashboard with auto-assessment packet |
| EarthSoft EQuIS | Industry standard but $80-300K and consultant-driven configs | $24.9-39.9K starter / $99K pro, EPA SW-846 templates ship out-of-box |
| Element Symbio | Cloud-only, weak on EPA SW-846 method coverage | Full SW-846 8260B / 8270D / 6010D / 7470A bundle with QC criteria |
| STARLIMS Environmental | Mature but TCLP workflows manual across modules | TCLP workflow links extractor → ICP-MS → RCRA limit comparison automatically |
