Triad: Systematic Planning, Dynamic Work Strategies, and Real-Time Measurement Systems

Triad is an innovative approach to decision-making for hazardous waste site characterization and remediation. General Dynamics/Brady and Associates, SSC Pacific, and Navy Region Southwest combined their efforts using EPA's Triad framework to provide a mechanism for better communication by linking data to other applications (Web sites, GIS, databases, and sensors) where data processing and decision making are facilitated through networked connections. This approach results in systematic planning, dynamic work plans, and real-time measurements that benefit from better communication across many platforms that provide access to all appropriate decision makers.
