Pure Strategies Releases Sustainable Chemicals Management Software Report
BOSTON, June 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- As consumer concerns and regulatory restrictions related to chemicals continue to evolve, so are the methodologies businesses use to manage chemicals across the value chain. Pure Strategies, a sustainability consulting firm with specific expertise in chemicals management and the implementation of sustainability strategies, announces the release of a new report, Sustainable Chemicals Management Software: A Pure Strategies review of tools for managing chemicals in products. The report was introduced this week at the Sustainable Brands conference to an audience of companies seeking ways to transform their business and chemicals management.
As the report outlines, sustainable chemicals management, particularly for medium to large businesses, is a complex undertaking that traditional tools, such as Excel spreadsheets, can no longer adequately support. Companies with a comprehensive chemical data management system in place find that they are well-equipped to respond swiftly and effectively to new directives. As Brian Martin, Seagate's Senior Director for Product Environmental Compliance asserts in regard to their chemical data management system, "... we had our first response to the REACH SVHC list within 15 minutes ... Within a couple of days, we had a very solid answer to REACH compliance that we could give to our customers with a high degree of credibility."
While there are a number of chemical reporting software systems in the market today, each offers unique advantages; there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The report by Pure Strategies addresses the criteria that companies should use in determining the software and services their business requires though a comparative review of 11 chemicals management software systems. Bob Kerr, Co-founder and Principal of Pure Strategies explains, "A company's business priorities will ultimately determine the key features it should be looking for in a chemical software system. This report offers valuable guidance to companies that are overwhelmed with their chemicals management needs."
