Abstract: Systems and methods for compliance monitoring are described. An example system includes a sourcing organization, a VSA entity having policies governing conduct, and a compliance entity in communication with the sourcing organization and the VSA entity. The compliance entity has the policies of the VSA and further has self-disclosure information from the VSA entity regarding compliance with its policies. The compliance entity provides access to the policies and the self-disclosure information to the sourcing organization over an electronic communication medium. The compliance entity may further provide the VSA entity with a demarcation of compliance based at least in part on the VSAs compliance with its policies.

Abstract: A fluid recovery system and method for accessing the contents of a target container. A preferred embodiment of the fluid recovery system includes an auxiliary processing vessel for housing a container to be accessed, a cylinder rupture vessel for housing the auxiliary processing vessel, and a tapping assembly positioned within the cylinder rupture vessel for accessing the contents of a target container. One or more fluid seals may be formed. The use of the auxiliary processing vessel of the preferred embodiment provides an extra level of protection against exposure to the contents of the container.
