Challenges

  • Delays in retrieving information in an emergency (30 minutes +)
  • No visibility of information except for the person that has a physical copy
  • Legibility, completeness and accuracy, is always questionable
  • Industry struggling to find people, need to do more with less
  • Minimum 2 years filing requirement creating administrative burden
  • Contrary to popular belief, paper is the most expensive way to track shipment of dangerous goods and hazardous waste
  • It costs $20-50 per document through its lifecycle (could add up to Millions of $ of effort wasted every year)
  • High administrative costs, errors, and duplication of effort
  • Paper does not support remote work in a post-pandemic world
  • Millions of sheets of paper being used every year, cutting down trees and other environmental impacts
  • Static information with no real-time updates
  • Tedious to extract ESG/Sustainability data and prepare annual summary reports
