An electronic inventory of hazardous products, their quantities, and their SDSs must be maintained and updated as new products are received and existing products are used. In the event of an emergency, safety managers and emergency response personnel need to know the products on site, their quantities, and how to handle them. The existence of products that are not documented in the inventory and therefore might not be handled and stored correctly can have serious and harmful effects on personnel, contract workers, and emergency response personnel. Moreover, undocumented products can lead to fines for non-compliance with safety regulations.
Use the ARCHIBUS Hazardous Materials mobile app to periodically survey your facility and compare the physical assets to those electronically documented. Update the quantities of each product, add new products to the inventory that exist on site but are not documented, and update the electronic inventory to reflect items that no longer exist on site at the specified location.
To update an existing electronic inventory:
If your site is just getting started with an electronic inventory of products and their SDSs, you can initiate your electronic inventory by conducting a site audit.
