Sixth edition

Welcome to the sixth edition of the Chemical Watch Chemicals Management Software Guide.

The purpose of the Guide is to connect the Chemical Watch community of product safety and regulatory professionals to the latest software that is being used to help meet the objectives of product safety teams around the globe.

We also hope that the guide will help to shed light on the factors driving investment in software, the functionality currently available to product and compliance teams, the latest innovations on the market – and the platforms being used to deliver those solutions.

Supporting these insights are the responses to the Chemical Watch Software Survey which is distributed each year to organisations across key industry sectors, providing a unique snapshot of activity in the market.

Over the past five years, using data drawn from the survey, we have reported on the increasingly important role software plays in supporting the chemicals management and control function within businesses. The results this year show that role is set to grow even further as some 73% of organisations report that they have used software to support their chemicals management requirements in the past three years.

Digital solutions are now very much seen as strategic imperatives for organisations, rather than just a ‘nice-to-have’. As companies around the globe look to transform their product safety and

regulatory activities, the software they are deploying is helping to make this possible.

Thank you to all the companies participating this year. Do take a look at the range of software showcased in the Profiles section from page 36 onwards.

A special thank you is due to Veeva, the sponsor of this year’s Guide. You can find details of their chemicals management solution in their Profile on page 61. The Veeva team will be pleased to answer any questions you may have about their products.

How are companies using software tools to help with their chemicals management tasks?

As the number of organisations that use software to support their chemical management requirements continues to grow, regulatory compliance remains the number one priority for IT solutions, the 2022 Chemical Watch software survey reveals. Kate Lowe reports.

For six years Chemical Watch has tracked the use of software by the corporate teams responsible for compliance with chemicals regulations, chemical safety assessment, hazard communication and product stewardship. Every year the results have underlined the critical role software plays in chemicals management, while at the same time they offer an insight into how the requirements placed on product safety and compliance professionals are developing and highlight the factors that are influencing change.

In this, the sixth edition of the Chemical Watch software survey, our aim has once again been to track the use of software tools in the sector, and, by drilling down into the detail of the specific functions,

to understand better how corporate product teams are using IT to support their organisational goals. We hope the insights from this research will help the development and implementation of the best solutions for teams responsible for the safe management of chemicals.

This year, 214 companies took part in our survey, which was launched at a time of growing uncertainty for many businesses across the globe. Last month, the International Monetary Fund warned that global economic activity is experiencing a “broad-based and sharper-than-expected slowdown”. This, it says, will result in a drop in global growth from 6% in 2021 to 3.2% in 2022 and 2.7% in 2023. The circumstances facing businesses today are markedly different to when our last software survey was conducted 12 months ago. Back then businesses were busy investing as they looked forward to better times following the world’s emergence from the Covid 19 pandemic.

Most organisations taking part this year are drawn from the same parts of the

Chemicals Management Software Guide 05
...most participants were either chemicals producers or downstream chemicals users, but in both cases, there was a slight increase this year.

chemicals management industry as those in previous years, however, there have been some small shifts in the numbers falling into specific sectors. As before, most participants were either chemicals producers or downstream chemicals users, but in both cases, there was a slight increase this year – from 41% to 45% of all participants for downstream users and from 33% to 36% of all participants for chemicals producers. The remainder of this year’s respondents were largely either service providers, law firms or regulatory agencies [Figure 1]

The sample includes responses from enterprise scale organisations with more than 5,000 employees (31%), largescale operators with between 250 and 5,000 employees (28%), medium-sized with between 50 and 250 employees (21%), small-scale operators with 11 to 50 employees (11%) and microorganisations with under ten employees (9%) [Figure 2]

Highlights from this year’s survey findings include:

• the number of organisations that have used software to support their chemical management requirements in the past three years has continued to grow with 73% of this year’s survey respondents confirming their use of IT tools;

• the number of participants saying they are considering implementing software in the next 12 months has fallen from 45% in 2021 to 38% this year;

• software to help with regulatory compliance activities remains the top priority for IT solutions among respondents;

• within regulatory compliance, data management, regulatory management, product compliance and change management are the top priorities for IT solutions;

(less than 10 employees)

This year’s study also saw 64% of microorganisations (up to ten employees) and the same percentage of small organisations (11 to 50 employees) say they had utilised software for chemicals management in the past three years, while 73% of medium sized firms (50 to 250 employees) confirmed they had done so.

Breaking the data down by the type of organisation that our survey participants represent reveals a steady growth in the number of downstream businesses reporting that they have used software in the past three years for chemicals management tasks – up from 66% in 2021 to 75% in 2022 [Figure 3]

Investment plans

Given the sharper than expected slowdown in global economic growth in 2022, it is not surprising to see a reduction in the number of organisations who plan to invest in new software to support chemicals management over the next 12 months – from 45% of all respondents in 2021 to 38% in 2022. Chemical producers are responsible for most of this decrease – from a high of

Who is using software? The majority of organisations surveyed by Chemical Watch continue to report that they have used a software system
to support their chemicals management programme in the past three years. However, this year, the number confirming their use of software tools increased to 73% of all the organisations taking part in the survey – up from 61% in 2021. This figure includes software that has been developed in-house, solutions purchased from an external supplier as a bespoke or off-the shelf package, and/or outsourced managed IT services.
In common with our previous surveys, the most active users of software in the past three years include enterprisescale organisations with more than 5,000 staff. Some 78% of these reported using software tools for chemicals management in that time. Meanwhile, 79% of large organisations (with more than 250 staff) said they had used software in the same period – up from 63% in our last survey.

46% last year to 32% this. By contrast, interest in investing in software tools from downstream companies has seen a modest increase – from 37% of respondents last year to 41% in this year’s survey. Interest among others, including service providers, has remained steady with 43% saying they are looking to invest in software solutions this year.

After several years of growth in the number of respondents who told us

that they currently use a single software system to meet their chemicals management needs, this year’s survey saw a slight fall – from 43% in 2021 to 36% in 2022. Downstream businesses reporting that they use one application fell sharply – from 46% to 34% – while chemical companies reporting they use just one fell almost as far – from 42% to 33%.

These changes could indicate that the move towards greater systems integration highlighted in last year’s survey has slowed. Indeed, when asked if all their software tools were integrated or connected up, only 22% of respondents replied in the affirmative –down from 43% of respondents in 2021. Separately, the number of respondents that told us that they do not integrate software rose from 18% in 2021 to 34% in this year’s survey.

Meanwhile the increase seen in last year’s survey in businesses turning to either external consultants or third-party implementation services – in place of their in-house teams – to integrate new with existing business software appears to have run its course for now. In 2021, 27% of respondents said they used consultants to help them do this work. In this year’s survey that number has fallen to 9%. Similarly, use of third-party implementation services is now running at 10%, down from 17% in 2021 [Figure 4]

Priority functions

In keeping with previous years, regulatory compliance activities continue to be the number one priority for IT solutions among respondents to the survey. However, this year’s respondents placed the category even more firmly in the top spot than in previous years with 99% of professionals saying they regard regulatory compliance as ‘most important’ or ‘important’ to their current chemicals management programme. Meanwhile 92% cited hazard communication as ‘most important’ or ‘important’. This was followed by chemical safety assessment at 86% and product stewardship at 81% [Figure 5]

Once again, the survey further broke down these categories (regulatory compliance, hazard communication, chemical safety assessment and product stewardship) in order to assess the relative importance of the detailed software functions to respondents’ current chemicals management programmes. In the case of regulatory compliance, out of 11 functions the following were ranked most important:

• data management;

• regulatory management;

• product compliance; and

• change management (chemicals).

By contrast last year’s survey saw change management ranked eighth with compliance assurance fourth.

This year 93% of respondents said data management was ‘very important’ or ‘important’, 95% cited regulatory

Looking at product stewardship activities, out of six functions listed, respondents once again identified regulatory and the chemical databases as the two most important functions, with 94% the regulatory database choosing the former and 92% the latter.

Once again, safety data sheet (SDS) management function was the leader in the hazard communication IT solution category – with 85% reporting it as either ‘very important’ or ‘important’. Meanwhile in the chemical safety assessment IT solution category, the following functions were identified as most important:

• hazard assessment – 85%;

• environmental safety – 84%; and

• risk assessment functions – 84%.

Key drivers

So, what drives investment in software solutions? Top of the list in this year’s survey is regulatory compliance, cited by 77% as a ‘very important’ factor. Next comes time saving – cited by 58% as ‘very important’. Hazard communication and chemical safety assessment follow with 55% and 48% respectively, being seen as ‘very important’.

Integration with existing EHS/ERP systems was reported by 41% as ‘very important’ while product stewardship initiatives were cited by 33% [Figure 7]

This year’s survey saw a significant increase in the number of companies reporting gaps in their chemicals management data – as many as 81% of respondents identified this as an ongoing challenge. The data gaps are split evenly between physical and chemical data, regulatory chemical data, regulatory data, toxicological data and supply chain data.

When asked which functions (other than their own) use chemicals management data, as in previous surveys, respondents placed R&D (61%), health and safety (57%) and manufacturing/quality assurance (40%) in the top three positions [Figure 8]

What are the latest trends in chemicals management software for professionals?

The need to connect data along the value chain and provide customers with a unified approach to compliance are among the top software demands of product safety and regulatory compliance professionals. Elaine Burridge reports.

Connectivity, complexity and sustainability are the biggest factors influencing chemical companies in their regulatory compliance operations as they continue to grapple with ever-changing and evolving regulatory frameworks around the world.

The ability to source and manage data from the multiple layers in supply chains is crucial in a never-ending quest to gain information on all the chemicals and materials contained in a product. And as companies expand their geographic footprints and portfolios, the task becomes even more onerous.

Andrew Douglass, head of strategy, consumer products and chemicals at cloud computing company Veeva Systems, says he is seeing two fundamental trends in customers’ demands for software systems. One is

the need to connect data along the value chain to support product transparency and innovation.

“Chemical companies are asking for tools that digitally connect them with both their customers and suppliers to improve collaboration, compliance and efficiency,” says Dr Douglass. Consequently, software suppliers are developing tools that “break internal and external silos” to effectively connect all parties end-to-end in business processes.

The other trend relates to rising demand for unifying compliance in the manufacturing process to ensure operational excellence, resilience and flexibility. Companies are looking for chemicals management software that harmonises quality, health, safety and environment (HSE) and – where it fits the

portfolio – food safety functions, housing the data in a unified, consolidated format.

While companies are ramping up their digitalisation efforts, a trend that gathered pace during the coronavirus pandemic, there is still more growth in the future for automating chemicals management, according to Malena Weurlander, senior sales and account manager at Saas/ cloud service for corporate sustainability, Ecobio Manager.

She says: “As companies more deeply embed sustainability in their business strategies, digitalisation supports the need for tools that are equipped with the latest knowledge, helping the user apply that knowledge to changing and evolving legislation.”

Functions that assist users in substituting hazardous chemicals with safer

Chemicals Management Software Guide 19

alternatives also offer future growth opportunities for software suppliers, including using artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and blockchain. Ms Weurlander says the deployment of such technologies, which can offer faster and more accurate results, is a decision for each provider to take as to the best option for their customer.

“There are opportunities for AI and blockchain but the reality for the chemicals industry is that the foundations are not in place. They lack the systems that unify quality, regulatory, HSE and product stewardship data, documents and processes into modern, easy-to use systems of record,” Dr Douglass says.

Larry Yen, president of GreenSoft Technology, which provides environmental compliance data software and services, adds that AI does offer opportunities for automated data cleansing and collection features. “But we still find that a combination of automated and manual efforts is the best way to provide the highest quality data and highest project completion rates when it comes to collecting, validating and reporting on chemical data for green regulations,” he says.

Functionality needs

Customers want their software systems to perform several key functions that include regular and automatic updates on regulatory changes to chemicals and their risks, the creation of safety data sheets (SDSs), analysis of complex data and the generation of regulation-specific reports.

“We’ve seen demand for software to be able to manage full material declaration (FMD) data, provide in-depth article analysis, validate contextual content of chemical data and to be able to generate reports at multiple levels, such as product-level, bill of materials (BOM)-level or company-level,” says Mr Yen.

Toxnot associate product manager Lily Hogan says they are seeing stronger interest every year for FMDs as the

need for compliance stretches beyond minimal disclosure of restricted materials. The US supply chain software provider says instead of solely making customers and regulators aware of chemicals of concern within a product, full disclosure enables all parties to be completely aware of a product’s composition. This disclosure can be placed in written form on a product’s label, or it can be in a digital format, the latter having the benefit of universal accessibility, safe custody and timelessness.

“Customers are often looking for systems that can manage all aspects of that data, as well as strong ways to leverage it, such as more analytics, screenings and safety/ hazard data,” says Ms Hogan.

Increased data access and organisation, especially for raw materials, is a key software trend seen by Canada’s safety data sheet specialist DR-Software. DRSoftware executive Manuela Dukeshire says: “It is not always easy to get the information from suppliers, but at the same time, the need for downstream and upstream data management is growing exponentially.”

Ms Dukeshire adds that customers are currently also very concerned about poison centre notifications (PCNs) in the EU, along with the status of substance listings for the raw materials in their preparation. The next deadline for creating a unique formula identifier (UFI) that is required on the labels of products containing a hazardous mixture, along with generating and sending PCN dossers to Echa, is 1 January 2024. This only applies to products for industrial use – the deadline for consumer and professional uses was 1 January 2021.

Other regulations grabbing companies’ attention at the moment include Echa’s substances of concern in products database (Scip) reporting requirement under Europe’s waste framework Directive (WFD), and substances of very

high concern (SVHCs) under the EU’s REACH regulation.

The European Commission is currently proposing to add nine SVHCs to the candidate list, which would incur additional notification and information requirements. It also adopted on 25 April its restrictions roadmap, a rolling list of thousands of harmful chemicals to be prioritised for bans in the coming years under the EU chemicals strategy.

The move, said to be the biggest step the bloc has taken to detoxify its industry and products, would see roughly 5,000 to 7,000 chemicals restricted in the EU by 2030, according to estimates by the European Environmental Bureau (EEB). GreenSoft says some chemicals on the roadmap were already facing restrictions but most are new.

Digital passports

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a future growth opportunity for software suppliers. As part of its Green Deal, the EU will require products to have DPPs to better communicate data on material composition, circularity, recyclability and sustainability. Approved in 2020, the Green Deal is a set of initiatives established by the European Commission with the overarching aim of making the economic bloc climate neutral by 2050.

There are two components of a DPP, namely the content – or the digital data associated with a product – and its structure. The data can include information such as formulation, recycling instructions and product attributes, while the structure is the digital format that allows the information to be exchanged consistently between a wide variety of systems without any data loss.

Toxnot says that as DPPs grow in prominence, it will be necessary to standardise their content and structure to create consistency across the many product lines to which they will be applied.

Chemicals Management Software Guide 21

DPPs also offer a framework through which compliance data can be shared. They can be customised, based upon the needs of customers and suppliers’ willingness to share information, adds Toxnot, noting that while some suppliers may choose to share only the minimally viable amount of information needed for customers to gain compliance certification, others may see value in broader disclosure.

Sustainability

Demand for environmentally friendly processes and products continues to climb and suppliers of chemical management software are still seeing an uptrend for systems that support green initiatives.

The chemical industry regards itself as a major enabler of a more sustainable world, whether that is providing materials for renewable energy sources, such as solar cells or wind turbines, or creating bio-based alternatives to fossil fuel-based feedstocks and products.

Tamie Webber, senior vice president, product and customer experience at compliance solutions provider 3E, says the need to demonstrate sustainability has increased significantly and environmental, social and governance (ESG) has become a driving force for companies looking to lead in sustainability and environmental and social stewardship.

She comments: “NGO and consumer pressure along with growing regulatory oversight and enforcement are prompting companies to investigate their formulations, suppliers and operations to create transparency, which is required for all phases of the product lifecycle, from R&D to sourcing, production and sale and through to disposal and reuse.”

That consumer pressure is particularly being felt in the case of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), often referred to as “forever chemicals”. The current actions manufacturers are taking

to identify and report PFASs present in their products is being driven by supply chain demand to a larger extent than from specific government regulation. Mr Yen says that while some specific current and proposed regulations are directed at specific PFASs such as PFOA and PTFE, making their identification and removal from products relatively straightforward, there are others that call out generic restrictions applicable to all PFAS compounds. Because there is no single industry-accepted list of all PFAS chemicals that would be in scope for such a broad restriction, customers are generating their own PFAS lists that they want to collect and report on.

“With the industry and media focus on PFAS chemicals, the chemicals management industry has a challenge laid out for them,” Mr Yen says. “There are over 10,000 PFAS-type chemicals that developers must incorporate into their software and find ways to include these in their platforms for analysis and reporting in order to keep up with market demand.”

Software approaches

Many software providers report that cloud-based systems are the platform of choice by customers. “Multi-tenant cloud is the strategic goal of many companies,” says Dr Douglass. “The innovation, speed and flexibility, as well as the dramatically reduced reliance on customisation offered by multi-tenant cloud, is unmatched by other approaches.”

And 3E’s Ms Webber adds: “Cloud-based configurations can reduce the cost and complexity of information technology setup and maintenance, accelerate content updates, streamline compliance processes, facilitate informed decisionmaking and mitigate the risk of non-compliance.”

However, she notes that while adoption is growing, “some companies in the chemicals sector seem to be embracing the cloud cautiously due to concerns around protecting confidential business information such as product composition data and trade secrets”.

This is a concern echoed by others. Mr Yen says as concerns about data security expand, customers are increasingly requesting security certification from their software provider, while some customers are even moving away from cloud-based solutions to on-premise alternatives that can be installed behind their company’s own firewall.

According to software providers, chemical companies are looking for a single compliance solution that can meet a number of needs and integrate data, tools and services. Ms Hogan points out that the average company uses more than 12 software solutions, so consolidating the varying needs is valuable.

Many companies are happy to buy offthe-shelf packages, although there are others willing to pay for modifications to the software – such as custom lists and reporting filters – so that it fits more closely with their requirements and can integrate with existing systems. Overall, it depends on the specific industry, the company and the end users’ personal preference.

Another service that Ms Dukeshire says is becoming increasingly important to chemical companies is IT support. “Our customers are facing an increasingly global market, constantly changing legislation and an onslaught of information through which they have to sift. A strong support system from the software provider is essential,” she says.

The need to connect up and down supply chains will only get stronger as regulators, NGOs and consumers demand to be informed about the entire composition of any product placed anywhere in the world. That need will keep pushing the adoption of digital tools and software so that chemical companies can keep pace with – or even predict – legislative developments and achieve their compliance goals faster and with more accuracy.

What software is available to help professionals comply with transport of dangerous goods regulation?

In a sector where many rules are yet to be made available online, HCB managing editor Peter Mackay looks at digital tools in the market that aim to provide a way for shippers to make the compliance process easier.

It might be thought that digitalising the compliance function in the transport and storage of dangerous goods should be relatively straightforward. There is a welldefined set of substances and articles covered by the various regulations, and many “rules” that might lend themselves to digitalisation. However, in practice, it has proved difficult to develop an end-to-end software solution for international transport involving different modes. While there is a significant degree of harmonisation, certainly in terms of the structure of the different sets of regulations, each has its own particular variations from the UN Model Regulations – or the Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. Even within the different modes there are local differences, such as with the relief granted for the transport of goods

by ferry in the Baltic Sea, or for air consignment of otherwise “forbidden” dangerous goods by air to remote parts of Canada and Alaska.

Nor even are the regulations themselves generally available in a digital format. The UN Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) makes the UN Model Regulations, ADR (the road transport regulations in force across Europe and in some other countries) and ADN (which covers inland waterway transport in Europe) freely available on its website, but only in a searchable PDF format. The same is true for the US Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR), Canada’s Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations and the Australian Dangerous Goods (ADG) Code. The International Maritime Organisation (IMO)

does make the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code available in an e-reader format, as well as in hard copy, but this has to be paid for.

However, even this far into the 21st century, the other “main” sets of regulations are not even available in a PDF format and must also be paid for. The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) publishes its Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air every two years. Meanwhile, the Regulation concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail (RID), in effect in most of Europe, is only published in hard copy in English and French.

Air transport

Most duty-holders in the air transport sector use the Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) published by the airlines’ trade body, the International Air Transport Association (IATA). This book includes all the material from the ICAO Technical Instructions (which remains the “legal” document) but incorporates other information, notably the list of variations imposed by carriers and states. The DGR must be bought from IATA or one of its distributors; the 2023 edition is available in print or digital format.

The main advantage of using the digital version is that it is automatically updated – IATA is unusual in publishing an annual edition, which covers changes to the state and carrier variations as well as urgent safety-related amendments. The digital version also has embedded links so that users can go directly to pertinent information in other parts of the DGR.

IATA has taken this concept even further, with DG AutoCheck, launched in 2018.

DG AutoCheck is a digital solution that enables airlines, ground handlers and freight forwarders to automatically check the compliance of the Shipper’s Declaration for Dangerous Goods (DGD) against all relevant provisions of the DGR. Speaking at the launch of DG

Chemicals Management Software Guide 25

AutoCheck, Dave Brennan, assistant director of cargo safety and standards at IATA, explained: “The DGR lists over 3,000 entries for dangerous goods. Each one of which must comply with the DGR when shipped. The paper DGR is 1,100 pages long. Manually checking that each Shipper’s Declaration is compliant and the package(s) are correctly, marked, labelled and packaged is a complex and timeconsuming task. Automation with DG AutoCheck brings us a giant step forward. The cargo supply chain will benefit from greater efficiency, streamlined processes and enhanced safety.”

Compliance along the chain

This development highlights an important element of the digitalisation of the compliance function in the transport sector: not only does it have to be able to ensure compliance on the part of the shipper or consignor that puts the dangerous goods into the supply chain, but it has ideally to be able to demonstrate that compliance to other participants downstream as the goods are passed from hand to hand until they arrive at their ultimate destination.

To be able to do that, software has to be based on common standards, something that has been hard to develop in the complex world of transport regulations and the various national legislations to which they refer. Doing so has been the goal of DGOffice.net, which after several years of development now offers an online software solution that is providing the basis for an increasing number of products to aid compliance.

For example, in September this year the Dutch technical publisher Verloop Uitgeverij combined with DGOffice. net to offer its regulatory and training publications in digital formats. Verloop has long worked to maintain a library of regulatory publications, with its customers being largely trainers and safety advisers; moving to a digital platform will, Verloop says, will make those publications readily available to those who work with them.

In October, the Cargo Community Network (CCN) launched a suite of dangerous goods-related solutions through its open data platform, CUBEforall, based on DGOffice.net’s solutions, allowing users to work within one environment. Targeted primarily at the air transport sector, users can create compliant dangerous goods declarations and, through CUBEforall, share documents and data in real time with relevant parties in the supply chain, including forwarders, ground handlers and carriers. For those downstream of the shipper, it means they can have greater confidence in the data they receive and can also reuse it for their own purposes.

Initiatives such as this are important. In this year’s annual DG Confidence Survey, carried out by Labelmaster in collaboration with IATA and HCB, more than half of the dangerous goods professionals surveyed said they had problems in accessing complete and accurate data, and in harmonising processes across the supply chain; 44% reported problems in having shipments rejected by carriers or forwarders. One of the main recommendations arising from the survey was that companies should invest more in the kinds of software that can not only ensure compliance but also maintain that compliance all the way from the shipper to the final destination.

Cargo at sea

Digitalising the air transport chain has, largely through the efforts of IATA (which has, over decades, done the same for passenger ticketing) proved not only possible but fruitful. The maritime sector, on the other hand, has struggled. There is no overarching trade body comparable to IATA, so it has been left to other interests to pick up the baton and address the issues presented by the shipment of dangerous goods by sea, both in packaged and bulk form.

One major issue has been that most packaged dangerous goods form part of the containerised supply chain, where there are many players involved. Furthermore, while the IMDG Code

sets out the regulatory requirements for maritime carriage, there is a lot of grit in the system arising from carriers’ restrictions on the goods they are prepared to carry (and how to pack them, where to stow them onboard etc). These restrictions are based partly on experience but also on the restrictions imposed by the ports and terminals at which ships will call. While some carriers expend a great deal of effort to keep up with these restrictions (which change frequently), that information is not collated publicly and shippers regularly report that their consignments have been rejected, despite being in full compliance with the IMDG Code.

The primary provider of compliance software and IT systems is Exis Technologies, which was founded in the UK in 1987 and, since 2018, has been owned by National Cargo Bureau (NCB). Its core product is Hazcheck Systems, which has been consistently developed from early attempts to “computerise” the IMDG Code in order to allow operators to get rapid answers to questions of classification, packaging, segregation, stowage and documentation. Hazcheck Systems is now used by nine of the ten largest container lines.

Exis and NCB have continued to develop IT solutions in the areas of compliance and safety. Exis took part in the establishment of the Cargo Incident Notification System (CINS), which allows liner operators to share information with the aim of reducing the number of dangerous goods incidents at sea. In 2020, Exis/NCB launched Hazcheck Detect in response to the increasing number of shipboard incidents arising from undeclared or misdeclared dangerous goods; this builds on work done by some of the lines to automatically scan booking information for “suspicious” declarations; four of the largest container lines now use the system and each has brought its experience to add to the project. More recently, Exis/NCB launched Hazcheck Inspections, a web database and portal for planning, recording and analysing container inspections and

26 Chemicals Management Software Guide

promoting the development of common inspection standards.

For the shipment of dangerous goods in bulk, the leading software provider is Q88, whose Milbros cargo handling and cleaning information system is said to be used by more than 85% of the major chemical tanker operators. As with Exis’ Hazcheck systems, Milbros has developed the scope of its IT solutions over several decades, starting out with a focus on cargo handling and tank cleaning and expanding into areas such as prior cargo warnings, phosphoric acid compatibility, UV reference graphs for wash water test results, a library of safety data sheets (SDSs), personal protection equipment recommendations, and US Coast Guard compatibility checks. Q88 also responds to technical developments and, following some concern around self-polymerising cargoes, introduced in January this year a styrene monomer temperature log and inhibitor depletion tool to its portfolio.

Q88 itself was acquired in May this year by Veson Nautical, which describes itself as a “digital transformation” company.

Move into software

The software systems reviewed so far all have a dominant position in their sector but there are many other system providers in the market that all attempt to provide a way for shippers to make the compliance process easier. US-based Labelmaster, for example, offers the Dangerous Goods Information System (DGIS), which instantly validates shipment data against the latest regulations, prints the necessary documentation and provides an illustration of how the package must be labelled. DGIS handles US and Canadian domestic regulations, ADR, IATA, IMDG Code and Afman, the US military’s own dangerous goods rules.

DGIS also goes a step further, by being able to be integrated into other corporate systems (such as ERP, TMS or WMS) and

automation platforms. One effect of this is to allow the processing, documentation and validation of dangerous goods shipments to be performed in the same workflow as non-regulated shipments. DGIS can also be used to keep a record of training, store master data for dangerous goods, and act as a library of other compliance-related information.

Labelmaster is not alone in having moved into the software world from related activities, having started out supplying labels, placards, documentation and other products for compliant dangerous goods shipments. The Bureau of Dangerous Goods, also US-based, started as a training firm but branched out into software with its ShipHazmat system. It can electronically create compliant bills of lading and shipper’s declarations for air, ground and ocean dangerous goods shipments.

Among other US-based software providers are Hazmat Software, ShipERP’s ShipHAZ system, a compliance application for SAP, and HazMat Trucking Enforcer (HTE), which offers Cloud-based compliance checks for the North America road haulage sector.

What tools are there to help professionals navigate the circular economy?

As the trend towards adopting and incorporating sustainability criteria into chemicals management programmes grows, Vanessa Zainzinger asks how software can help product teams manage an increasingly complex set of obligations.

Chemicals management has long been a core element of corporate Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) strategies. But as we move closer to a circular economy, both regulators and the public expect companies to proactively limit the environmental impacts of the chemicals they use, store, and dispose of.

“Environmental issues have really become a core issue for the public, worldwide. And as such, the chemicals management elements of the ESG strategy have been brought to the surface,” says Randy Flinders, compliance specialist at California-headquartered software provider, Greensoft Technologies. “Is chemicals management a more prominent part of the ESG strategy than it has been? I don’t think so. Is it more visible? Yes.”

To Mr Flinders, this comes down to two interconnected trends. First, the damage that poor chemicals management can inflict on the environment has become impossible to ignore. More than anything, this is down to global concerns over pollution from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The contamination of soil, water and food resulting from the production and use of many of these highly persistent substances has been widely covered in mainstream media and remains firmly in the public eye.

The second trend Mr Flinders notes is an expansion of chemical regulations worldwide. This includes new rules on PFAS, such as the expected ban on the entire group of substances that is currently being drawn up in the EU.

In parallel, the EU’s Green Deal acknowledges that chemicals are the building blocks of the goods we use, and that paying attention to them is essential for a circular and climate neutral economy. The related chemicals strategy for sustainability is upping the ante on legislation that affects how all industries must manage the substances they use.

“Chemical management has become an integral part of corporate sustainability reporting strategies because the chemicals used in manufactured products impact society and the health and safety of workers and consumers,” says Kyle Schiber, group product manager at Wolters Kluwer-owned software provider, Enablon.

Chemicals Management Software Guide 31

“So, naturally, companies must show that they’re responsible and that they’re using safe chemicals and manufacturing safe products for the environment and for people – both employees and the public.”

For a long time, chemical management was a compliance-driven initiative. But as ESG grows in importance and issues such as PFAS are putting the spotlight on chemicals, it’s not enough for companies to simply be compliant, Mr Schiber says.

“Companies must go beyond that. As a result, when it comes to corporate sustainability reporting, companies are under pressure to show they’re proactively phasing out hazardous chemicals and materials from the products they manufacture to limit environmental impacts,” he says.

Dealing with data

Professional EHS software now often serves as a central platform for collecting data on chemicals and reporting on sustainability metrics. Software providers say their customers use software tools to quantify greenhouse gas emissions from the use and release of, for instance, ozone depleting substances, and impacts of chemicals that are toxic to aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

Increasingly, companies are also relying on software to pre-screen chemicals during the regulatory approval process and flag potential candidates for substitution. And some combine chemical management data with waste data to gain insights on how substances are reused and disposed of, says Chris Michie, product marketing manager at Cority, a software provider based in Toronto, Canda.

“Tracking chemicals through their entire process is vital to achieving circularity goals and allows organisations to identify areas for improvement,” Mr Michie says. “Organisations are increasingly adopting procurement processes that consider factors such as reuse capability when making purchasing decisions for chemical products.”

As circularity initiatives become increasingly prevalent across global industries, companies are wanting data that provides a more holistic view of their processes, Mr Michie says. “This includes gaining insights on material flows starting from procurement, consumption, reuse, and eventual disposal. There is also an increasing desire for automated systems to help identify materials for potential substitution.”

Bringing it all together

As sustainability reporting becomes more complex, it is crucial that software is able to comply with the key performance indicator (KPI) reporting frameworks –such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Dow Jones Sustainability Index and UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – says Markus Nörtemann, founder and managing partner at German software provider, Helasoft.

“The software should be able to communicate directly with other software platforms, especially to receive needed supplier data from them. Hence, it should include functionalities covering product carbon footprint needs, to get data at any point of the product lifecycle,” he says.

And increasingly, tools should be able to interact with platforms managed by regulatory authorities, such as Echa’s substances of concern in products (Scip) database, Mr Nörtemann says, to help companies comply with regulatory requirements.

Some companies may look for tools that go beyond chemical management and help them make sense of all their ESG obligations at once.

But Greensoft’s Mr Flinders cautions against trying to find an ESG tool that does everything, from greenhouse gas emissions to recyclability. “Those are all elements that go beyond just chemical content and no one software tool is going do all of these elements very well,” he says. “Companies are better served by identifying the core elements of their ESG processes or policies, and then deploying individual tools that meet those core elements best.

“In other words, the tool that’s best for analysing the chemical and compliance situation of their products may not be the same software that’s going to calculate greenhouse gas emissions.”

By using individual tools, companies can customise their reporting better, Mr Flinders says. And the specialised tools are more likely to stay on top of notoriously dynamic chemical legislation, such as the continuously changing exemptions under the EU’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, he adds.

Complexity increasing

The trend towards adopting and incorporating sustainability criteria into chemical management shows no signs of stopping, says Julian Moffatt, director of environmental solutions at Chicagoheadquartered software provider, VelocityEHS.

Mr Moffatt sees the investment community being the most important driver for comprehensive sustainability reporting over the next few years. “This directly impacts organisations’ prospects for future growth, regardless of their public visibility,” he says.

Software will ultimately be relied upon to manage these programmes by most medium-to-large organisations, he says, due to the inherent complexity of manual chemical management processes.

32 Chemicals Management Software Guide
The trend towards adopting and incorporating sustainability criteria into chemical management shows no signs of stopping.

“For example, companies that are serious about reducing their greenhouse gas emissions will need to assess and quantify Scope 3 GHGs, which are emitted not from their own operations, but indirectly from associated supply chain activities,” Mr Moffatt explains. This can include emissions from offsite treatment of wastes, electric power and fossil fuel consumption by suppliers and distributors, and any number of ancillary operations up and down the supply chain.

“Due to the sheer complexity and lack of standardisation of data across global supply chain elements, Scope 3 GHG emissions have historically been a major challenge for companies to accurately track, aggregate and report. Fortunately, modern software makes accurate Scope 3 GHG tracking much, much easier,” he says.

Mr Moffatt advises companies that struggle with the complexity of sustainability reporting to define a scope and timeline for their sustainability

programme that includes a progression from highest priority to lowest.

This means defining the target audience – such as investors, customers, shareholders, the executive team or employees – and the specific information needs and expectations of each group.

“It may not be possible to cover all needs in a comprehensive manner within a given programme year, but plan for annual expansion of your sustainability program to cover more priorities over time,” he says. “The software you rely on should accommodate this growth and automate many of the mundane and difficult information management tasks. Ask your software solution provider for detailed information on how they can help support your sustainability programmes and initiatives.

In the end, the biggest challenge companies face when they integrate chemical management into sustainability

programmes may not be collecting the data, says Mr Schiber from Wolters Kluwer Enablon.

“A chemical management software system generates a good amount of data on the usage, disposal, and storage of those chemicals – but ultimately, an organisation then has to build a story around that data, to translate it into tangible progress,” he says.

Mr Schiber’s advice to companies is to involve stakeholders with different perspectives – from corporate sustainability, chemical management and product development teams – in establishing realistic, measurable targets that will illustrate how chemical management relates to sustainability.

“Once you have those targets set, you can leverage data from the software to identify a path to achieve them,” he says.
