Posted on January 27, 2023

Scrolling through Instagram, binge watching your favorite Netflix show, taking a well-deserved mid-day nap, hitting your PB on Tetris – find more time to do the things you love by signing up for CARO’s new online portal to take advantage of its time saving features.

One of our favorite features of the new online platform is the eCOC:  By incorporating CARO’s new eCOC feature into your workflow, your day-to-day tasks will become easier and more streamlined, leaving you with plenty of time for those guitar lessons! Keep on reading to learn more about how awesome your life will be with CARO’s NEW eCOC feature.

1. Copy, Paste, Repeat!

Gone are the days of printing off your COC and filling it in manually with every sampling event – not to mention having to start over if you make a mistake!  With our new eCOC, once you have created your first submission you can copy it each time you head into the field.  Just update your sampling dates, times, and any new information, and SUBMIT – ahhh isn’t that easy!

2. No More Power Dialing

Are you anxiously awaiting results and trying to resist the urge to keep checking in? Save yourself the hassle of calling every few minutes for a check-in; once an eCOC is submitted through CCI you can track the progress of your order at any time through the CCI dashboard.  From the minute you enter your eCOC, to the second your precious samples are received, logged, and processed, and finally when we issue your report, you will be able to see exactly where your order is, every step of the way!   You can stay logged into the system for hours and watch for updates – we won’t tell.

3. Is that a ‘b’ or a ‘6’?

Let’s be honest: frozen hands taking notes in the rain do not always generate the most legible COC!  If you’ve experienced the after-effects of transcription errors, this one’s for you.  By entering your sample IDs directly into the eCOC, you won’t have to deal with the aftermath of sample ID interpretation.  Also, all your paperwork can be completed in the comfort of your home, or office, or home-office, on your tablet, phone, desktop… however you like to get things done!

That all sounds great… But I’m just so comfortable with paper COCs!

We want you to step out of that comfort zone for just a few minutes (that’s really all it takes to complete an eCOC!), and into a new era of sample submission.  And we get it – trying new things for the first time can be daunting.

That’s why Team CARO is here as your ‘Big Picture Sidekick’ with LIVE CCI Training Demos.  Every other week, we offer open online demonstrations that will cover specific features of the CCI and how to use them.  These presentations are designed to be an interactive way for you to ask questions and learn to make the CCI work for YOU!  The best part is they are quick (usually under 30 minutes), and no sign-up is required. Simply reach out to your CARO contact or search our social channels here to retrieve the meeting link.

We can’t wait to see you trying out (and loving) everything the CCI has to offer. To get signed up today, visit https://www.caro.ca/cci-sign-up and we’ll get you going on the most innovative online platform our industry has ever seen. Trust us – all your friends are doing it!
