HAZMAT Compliance Software & App Development

How Digital HAZMAT Compliance Can Save Time & Money

Digital HAZMAT compliance can save companies both time, money, and lives. The digital transformation of verbose and complicated regulations (IATA, IMDG, TDG, 49 CFR and ADR) into actionable web-based user friendly tool, makes it a must have for logistic departments. Applicable to manufacturers, distributors, 3PL’s and carriers, involved in the transportation of HAZMAT/DG tools, effortless and simple as non-regulated shipping. It also helps companies boost their bottom line, improve efficiency, prevent fines, and avoid returned shipments.

Non-compliance with hazardous materials regulations is a felony, with expensive fines, loss of permits, cease and desist orders, and the worst – delays in getting goods to your customer. Regulations change constantly and it is difficult to stay abreast of the changes. Wouldn’t it be nice to let a few specialists understand the nuances and convert into actionable software that is simply represented in an GUI?

Hazardous materials include large number of products that are used by households, agriculture, factories, laboratories, and military. They are a vital part of the economy and examples of them include explosives, batteries, paints, infectious substances, chemicals, perfumes, beer, fuel and more. While being transported, they must be packaged for safe shipping and handled with care to minimize damage in the event of an accident. This is why the regulations are very specific on how to package, segregate and placard the goods for transporting by rail, truck, air, and sea. Non-compliance is costly monetarily, and can have significant impacts to humans, flora and fauna. In the near past, the Lac Magantique accident, is one such example where an entire town was obliterated in a HAZMAT accident. Consequences of non-compliance is lethal.

Easy to use software, in a language that one understands enables compliant and safe HAZMAT shipping and helps avoid delays, excess shipping costs and fines. This goes a long way in ensuring that your entire operation runs smoothly and efficiently, saving you time, effort, and stress. Don’t forget a happy customer that receives their shipment on time.
