Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) compliance requirements at most industrial facilities involve extensive data collection, review, validation, documentation, communication, and reporting. Employees are often overwhelmed with daily scheduled and unplanned events. It is not uncommon to learn that a plant has developed numerous spreadsheets, each with multiple checklists for various types of tasks in different schedules. These checklists must be updated for compliance certification on a regular basis. Since the mid-1990’s, many companies have implemented robust Environmental Management Information System (EMIS) solutions to streamline and manage the daunting compliance management process. With the improvement of computer software technology, the availability of these EMIS solutions has grown in number and functionality to address a multitude of tasking, data management, analysis, and reporting requirements.
