Line of communication

The first step in assessing the candidate tollers is to notify the candidates they are being considered for this toll, and determine their interest in further evaluation. Pending mutual interest in further consideration, the companies must establish lines of communication with commercial representatives, technical/manufacturing representatives, and health, safety and environmental (HS E) representatives. There may be one person in a candidate company that funnels the communication from these three groups or several, especially if the HS E function is split. Tollers should recognize these discrete needs and be prepared to respond accurately and efficiently to enhance their merited consideration. 

The lines of communication that were established in the toller selection phase can be formalized in the contract stage. The contract should spell out the persons to contact and under which circumstances they must be contacted. Detailed and continuing exchange of information is necessary in order to optimize the administration and performance of the tolling contract. The parties may want to come to agreement and include the following in the contract or supporting documentation to enhance communication ... 

In addition, establish lines of communication for sharing information pertaining to equipment in need of repair or replacement, plans to remodel, renovate, or redecorate, new uses of building space or increases in occupant population, installation of new equipment. 

Lines of communication should be kept short. Transfer of information is probably least accurate by word of mouth. Avoid superfluous information. Show is better than tell.

The organizational meeting had several positive outcomes, which could have been reached in other ways only with difficulty. First, everyone involved realized that once the data collection and reporting process had been agreed, each laboratory would be expected to follow it, without modification. This realization was possible because the procedures to be used after the completion of the analyses were clearly explained, and the need for consistency in reporting was abundantly clear. Second, it was possible to reinforce the lines of communication and responsibility that everyone involved in the study was expected to observe. Third, the necessity for rapid communication of problems between study management and field and laboratory personnel was underscored. 

Communication among all individuals involved in an LSMBS is crucial. Lines of communication must be clearly defined and must be in place well before the study is initiated. Therefore, lines of communication between the persons who collect and ship commodities, the field phase managemenf sfudy personnel, fhe analytical laboratories, and overall study management must all be clearly established prior to study initiation. This delineation of the lines of communication must include oral and written communication, including the transmittal of raw data such as sample collection logs and chain of custody forms. 

Contact with the shoppers was restricted to field phase management study personnel, for two reasons. First, clearly defined lines of communication had to be maintained. Second, in order to ensure that the identity of the stores remained blind (i.e., unknown to everyone downstream from sample collection), in compliance with one of the design criteria, communication with the shoppers had to be restricted. Overall, limiting contact with shoppers to one entity and using modern technology, such as facsimiles and e-mail to facilitate and document communications between shoppers and the collection coordinator, were essential factors in the successful conduct of the sampling phase of the study.

I don t want it to sound as if I m protecting her. I m not. One of the reasons we ve been married so long is because we have a real open line of communication and we re honest with each other and try to deal with everything out in the open. We try to be emotionally honest with each other. But it s difficult to discuss with her how I am feeling about her condition, or how it affects me. Those discussions are difficult. We still haven t fully developed a language that works for us. 

The components and their lines of communication mirror those of the business. The diagram could represent a business structure of departments and flows of work, or a software structure of components and connectors. Just as departments are composed of teams and people, so a closer look at ary one of these components would reveal that it is built from smaller ones. 

Remember that you are modeling the business, and not writing a database schema or program or modeling purely physical relationships. The associations are attributes drawn in pictures and not lines of communication or physical connections. (The latter would normally be drawn as an action.)... 

In order to maximize the benefit of any identified improvement, administrative procedures should be created and implemented which define distribution or lines of communication for information related to chemical reactivity hazard management improvements. Examples of such lines include those from laboratories to pilot plants to production facilities. 

Few books attempt to cover the area of automatic chemistry. Technical papers which relate to automation have most often been presented in analytical journals dealing with the basic subject area, and the details of the automation are less well documented than the chemistry. Aspects of management, education and economics are given scant treatment despite their importance. The Journal oj Automatic Chemistry [8] was launched to fill this void in the literature and experience has shown that there is a wealth of technical experience awaiting publication. In addition, it is vital for the suppliers of automatic instrumentation and computer systems to set up adequate lines of communications with their customers. User groups are a valuable asset so that experiences, good and bad, are shared and any problems resolved. A user who becomes frustrated for lack of support or information will become a source of bad reference. A satisfied user, on the other hand, will provide valuable input which may benefit future users and assist the company in providing instruments that the user needs.

At a minimum, the sponsor should expect the contract lab to consistently produce accurate results and to provide these results to the sponsor in a timely manner. The contract lab needs to display honesty and candor in their scheduling estimates and in reporting problems which may arise from time to time. This is especially true if the problem is the result of an error on the contract laboratory s part. This will be easier if the laboratory has made an effort to keep the lines of communication open and active so that the sponsor is well aware of the progress (or lack... 

The facility should ensure that in a multisite study, clear lines of communication exist between the study director, Pis, the QA program, and the study personnel.
