Material Safety Data Sheets Product Sheet

The #1 Solution for Real Estate, Infrastructure, and Facilities Management in the WorldARCHIBUS® Environmental & Risk ManagementMaterial Safety Data SheetsRetrieve material safety information quickly to help protect individuals from hazardous chemicals and reduce regulatory compliance costsOrganizations have a responsibility to safely handle toxic products, verify compliance with various regulations, and inform first responders where those hazardous materials are stored and what they may encounter during an emergency. Yet maintaining this information in binders or file drawers can be expensive to manage, difficult to update, and a challenge to access – especially during a crisis. The Web-based ARCHIBUS Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) application provides instant updates and access to MSDS information from anywhere, stores lists of chemical products used in workplaces, and catalogs their MSDSs. It also integrates materials inventories, space and occupancy data, equipment inventories, and organizational information with site- and floor-plan graphics, providing the most complete information to execute a plan of action to avert a crisis.Benef its• Minimizes risk of serious injury to building occupants and first responders in the event of an accident• Reduces the administrative cost and effort in maintaining an up-to-date MSDS library• Satisfies chemical safety and inventory documentation reporting obligations efficiently • Enables first responders to quickly and reliably retrieve critical chemical safety information during an emergencyReports & Summary Tables:MSDS Locations ListMSDS Chemical InventoryMSDS Constituents by ProductBrowse MSDSs by ProviderMSDS Constituent LocationsMSDS Locations HighlightMSDS Geographic Drill-DownRetrieve Material Safety Data SheetPrint MSDSsPlus Many More...ARCHIBUS MSDS lets users identify the type and location of hazards on floor plans for fast and effective response to events involving toxic materials, helping to ensure occupant safety and business continuitywww.archibus.com© 2013, ARCHIBUS, Inc. All rights reserved.ARCHIBUS® Material Safety Data Sheetsand omissions in compliance can be costly. Because all chemical, training, location and other information can be uploaded, centralized, and instantly accessed via the Web, organizations gain a real-time picture of their chemicals profile for training, mitigation, and reporting processes.• Record all information on chemical stocks, storage, and employee training to document compliance with regulatory requirements • Provide the flexibility to support multiple hazard classification systems, including National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS), and the UN’s Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS)• Support compliance with hazardous chemical inventory reporting requirements such as EPCRA Tier II/SARA Title III Empower First RespondersIt is essential to give associates who handle potentially dangerous materials the appropriate training in how to manage them. Yet first responders also need that information with equal, if not greater, urgency in order to take effective action once accidents do occur. Because they do not have an insider’s day-to-day familiarity with chemical inventories and locations, ARCHIBUS MSDS provides fire, police, and medical professionals with instant and reliable access to critical chemical safety information during an emergency. • Protect first responders by providing them with the most up-to-date hazardous material information• Confirm the presence of hazardous materials to determine the necessary precautions and equipment• Provide access to floor plan drawings with MSDS chemical locations highlighted according to hazard levels and then drill down for details as needed• Generate maps showing location and evacuation radius graphics For more information, visit www.archibus.com/msds Minimize Risk of Serious InjuryThe presence of hazardous materials in a facility presents organizations with multiple threats of accidents, personal injury, lost productivity, regulatory non-compliance, and associated legal and financial risks. ARCHIBUS MSDS minimizes such risks by centralizing data on the nature and location of hazardous materials, as well as indicating the best way to respond to spill and/or combustion incidents and injuries. • Advance best safety practices by making MSDSs readily available to site occupants• Share MSDS information with other systems and processes such as GIS, EH&S, and emergency preparedness to help improve workplace safety • Use ARCHIBUS document management capabilities to securely store, retrieve, and distribute copies of MSDSs for both scalability and effective response to accidents• Enhance information sharing among associates to proactively prevent problems while supporting effective response to accidents when they do occur Reduce MSDS Administrative Costs Large organizations with extensive chemical inventories in multiple locations face a challenge in keeping track of those materials in a cost-effective manner. Manual accounting processes to track chemical stocks and other information, particularly in widely dispersed locations, only increase the risk of losing important safety information and falling short of regulatory mandates. ARCHIBUS MSDS streamlines materials management processes and improves related information access for greater safety and improved cost efficiency.• Reduce costs in maintaining an up-to-date MSDS library with online data collection and dissemination• Gather MSDS inventory information via the Web for a complete, centralized database, and, optionally, details of constituent components and locations• Access MSDSs stored in a database and indexed for fast search, retrieval, update, and bulk printing• Leverage other existing ARCHIBUS facilities data such as space and equipment inventory, floor plans, and GIS maps Document Chemical Safety and InventoriesARCHIBUS MSDS ensures completeness of an organization’s MSDS library that not only decreases the consequences of accidents, but also minimizes the likelihood of regulatory violations and monetary penalties associated with inadequate compliance.
