Yes—if your main needs are sampling schedule management and EPA drinking water report preparation, I’d look for software built for water utilities / environmental compliance, not generic compliance tools.

Good options to consider

1. Cityworks

  • Strong for asset management + work order scheduling
  • Commonly used by utilities
  • Can help organize sampling tasks and compliance workflows
  • Better if you also want field operations and maintenance tied in

2. Brightly (formerly Lucity / other utility compliance tools)

  • Often used by public utilities for regulatory tracking
  • Can support recurring sampling calendars, tasks, and reminders
  • Useful if you need broader utility compliance management

3. Envirosuite / compliance-focused water modules

  • More oriented toward environmental compliance and operational monitoring
  • Good for centralized data and reporting workflows
  • Worth evaluating if you want more advanced tracking and analytics

4. WaterTrax

  • Specifically designed for water and wastewater compliance
  • Strong fit for sampling schedules, sample tracking, and regulatory reporting
  • Often a good match for EPA/state drinking water compliance needs

5. Opperman / EHS compliance platforms with water modules

  • Good for compliance calendars, evidence management, and reporting
  • Best if you need water compliance inside a larger EHS program

If EPA report preparation is the priority

Look for features like:

  • CDD/CCR support (Consumer Confidence Report / annual drinking water reporting)
  • Sample result uploads
  • Automatic rule triggers for missed samples / resampling
  • Audit trail
  • Role-based review/approval
  • Reminder and escalation workflows
  • Data export for state/EPA templates

My short recommendation

If you want something purpose-built for drinking water compliance, start with:

  1. WaterTrax — strongest direct fit for sampling and regulatory reporting
  2. Cityworks — best if you also need work orders and asset management
  3. Brightly/Lucity-type utility platforms — good if you want a broader municipal compliance system

Questions to narrow the best choice

If you tell me:

  • your utility size
  • whether you need CCR generation
  • whether you want cloud or on-prem
  • and your budget range

…I can recommend the best 2–3 options more precisely.
