Chemical Product Evaluation and Screening - Tools for Real World Decision Making

Marilyn Johnson, Dolphin Software, Inc., Lake Oswego, OR

When a company endeavors to green the chemicals in their supply chain, a first, critical step is to effectively access and employ information that enables better decision-making. The process starts with knowledge of what kinds of chemicals (and their constituents) are available in today's marketplace. Advanced software tools today can enable companies to leverage chemical product information, specific to their needs. A demonstration of these tools will be provided. These tools are designed to help bring objectivity and clarity to each particular chemical product's health and environmental impacts - information that those who design, buy or use products need to know - and which will provide a basis for company decisions and action. These screening tools help answer questions that support company and customer needs through full product information disclosure and assessment, while protecting confidentiality of ingredient formulation. This neutral third-party platform for the design and deployment of customized product screening was built on a background of 15 years of chemical management software expertise.
