Chemical inventories: should one or more inventories be carried out, and with which tools?

You want to choose a chemical management tool.

What are your options?

You can meet your needs:

• in a "documentary" way by dividing the work between several autonomous entities which produce their own tools and communicate through documents ;

• by using Excel® spreadsheets, which may be linked ;

• by selecting or creating several databases and/or software applications that may be interconnected;

• by integrating chemical management into your workflow software.

This sheet will help you identify the tool(s) you will need according to :

• the objectives you set for the tool;

• the amount of data to be managed ;

• the size and organization of your company.
