Organizations must produce accurate information on demand in order to comply with government regulations from environmental agencies such as U.S. Environmental Protenction Agency (EPA), and occupational health and safety agencies such as U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA). These regulations affect many areas of your organization, including engineering, project management, quality assurance and vendor management. All these groups must collaborate and quickly distribute, review and approve drawings and documents in a secure repository, with strict version control. Furthermore, compliance must be demonstrated through auditable processes, and all supporting documentation must be retained as records according to appropriate file plans.
Open Text solutions ensure that emergency and hazardous materials policies and change management procedures are followed with appropriate versions of all internal documentation, as well as required material safety data sheets. Learning management solutions enable you to deliver and ensure that employees are appropriately trained in compliance with EH&S standards, policies and regulations.

All documents are managed in a central, secure repository under strict version control. Changes are managed through review and approval workflows, in which authorized approvers can affix their signature electronically. Access to documents is recorded, and the audit trail is available for inspection. SOPs – along with operating instructions, maintenance and repair instructions, material data safety sheets and emergency response instructions – are available to staff via a Web-based interface.
