Kesar Digum

Building a Sampling Plan

A good sampling plan doesn't test everything - it tests the right thing, at the right point, at the right frequency. Kesar Digum maps your water system, determines which tests are required and how often, and builds an annual sampling schedule that meets regulation. The service is backed by testing in an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory, nationwide.

Building a Sampling Plan

Sample smart, not everything

Every facility - a hospital, a factory, a hotel or a residential building - is a unique water system with its own risk points. A sampling plan copied from another organization will test too much in one place and too little in another, leaving dangerous gaps. Kesar Digum builds a sampling plan tailored specifically to you: mapping the representative sampling points, defining the test types, setting the frequency by risk level, an annual sampling schedule and a clear protocol for responding to abnormal results - all in line with regulatory requirements and your budget.

What the Service Includes

What the Sampling Plan Includes

From planning the sampling points to a protocol for responding to deviations - a complete work plan for your facility.

Mapping the Sampling Points

Reviewing the water system and identifying the representative points and risk points to sample from, as the basis for the entire plan.

Defining the Test Types

Determining which tests are required at each point - microbiological, chemical, Legionella - according to the facility type and the regulatory requirement.

Frequency and Annual Schedule

Setting the sampling frequency by risk level and building an annual sampling schedule that ensures no test is missed.

Protocol for Responding to Deviations

A clear protocol for what to do when an abnormal result comes in - which retests to run, when to disinfect and when to involve the regulator.

When It's Needed

When Should You Build a Sampling Plan?

An organized sampling plan saves time, money and regulatory headaches. These are the common situations where it is essential:

A New or Under-Construction Facility

A facility or water system coming online needs an organized monitoring plan from day one, not in hindsight.

At setup

A Regulatory Requirement

When a new requirement comes in from the authority or the Ministry of Health, an organized sampling plan ensures full compliance with no gaps.

As required

Ongoing Annual Monitoring

An organization looking to organize its routine sampling throughout the year benefits from a fixed schedule that prevents oversights and last-minute testing.

Periodic

Multiple Sites and Facilities

Organizations managing several sites need a unified plan that consolidates all sampling and makes oversight and documentation easier.

Ongoing
What's at Risk

What Happens Without an Organized Plan?

Random sampling, with no plan, leaves gaps that surface at exactly the wrong moment:

Hidden Monitoring Gaps

Without orderly mapping, risk points go untested, and contamination can develop in an area that was never sampled.

Audit Citations

The absence of a documented sampling plan exposes the facility to citations in Ministry of Health and authority audits, and sometimes to fines.

Wasted Resources

Unfocused sampling wastes money on unnecessary tests in one place and falls short exactly where it is truly needed.
