Documentation of experiments was inconsistent with lab notebooks.  Efforts were initiated to standardize and streamline data gathering in the Pilot Plant.  Documentation practices have evolved from handwritten lab notebooks to e-tickets in the effort to improve efficiency, accuracy & completeness.  The time required to create documents for each run has been reduced from nearly a week to 4 - 6 hours.  Implementing PDMS has created a centralized system for run requests, schedule viewing, electronic documentation, and a searchable data storage capability.
