Why Excel Fails for Geotechnical Data Management (And What to Use Instead)
For decades, Microsoft Excel has been the default tool for managing geotechnical and environmental data. It’s familiar, flexible, and widely available. But here’s the reality: Excel was never designed for geotechnical data management. As projects become more complex—multi-borehole investigations, long-term groundwater monitoring, contaminant modeling—the limitations of spreadsheets become impossible to ignore. In this guide, we’ll…

Why Your Contaminant Model Is Wrong (And How to Fix It)
Contaminant transport models are supposed to bring clarity to complex subsurface systems. But in practice, many models—especially those used for groundwater contamination and landfill assessments—are fundamentally flawed. They may look polished. They may produce clean breakthrough curves. They may even pass regulatory review. And yet… they’re wrong. Not because the software failed—but because the assumptions,…
