Compliance Side Total Chemical Management
Turning EHS Into ROI |
|
The logical pinnacle of complying with government regulations on safety and the environment is to find a way to turn the compliance “cost center” at your company into a way of saving money. One path to realizing ROI from EHS is to move beyond compliance into better chemical management, inventory, and material request and approval methods into Compliance Side Total Chemical Management (CSTCM®). CSTCM is a process for improving chemical procurement decisions to reduce the number and volume of chemicals used by a business, as well as to increase human, environmental and fiscal health. CSTCM implementation starts with monitoring inventory and then moves to controlling all new chemicals that come on site. Material request and approval filters severely curtail the procurement of unwanted products. The CSTCM process ultimately helps EHS managers analyze purchase decisions and find opportunities to reduce hazardous chemicals, minimize duplication and maximize buying power. With these capabilities, your company can choose the least-toxic brands and put your buys out to bid. By purchasing fewer brands in greater quantities from fewer suppliers, your company can negotiate more attractive pricing from vendors and achieve substantial savings. And you can reduce your toxic chemical profile at the same time. CSTCM elements include: establishing a pro-active chemical management program, taking effective physical inventories, evaluating hazard communication compliance against the physical inventory, establishing chemical request and approval process, categorizing chemicals by use or function, creating a toxic profile of the site or sites, identifying procurement opportunities, selecting maintenance protocols, helping companies identify high-leverage economic returns. CSTCM is perfect for many business sectors, including: Pharmaceuticals and Health Care, Automotive and Automation, Forest Products and Pulp and Paper, Semiconductors and other High-Tech, Chemical and Petroleum Manufacturing, Utilities and Telecommunications, Printing and Graphics, Aviation and other Transportation Arenas, Consumer Mroducts Manufacturers of all kinds. |
