Creation of a European Internet-based service for Safety Data Sheets (SDS) on-demand

Objetivo

The project aims at the creation of a novel service dedicated to EH&S (Environment, Health and Safety), accessible via Internet to all European companies concerned with the production and utilisation of chemical products with hazardous potential. The service -named "SDS on-demand"- offers the possibility to produce on-demand and at low cost actual correct Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and to enable their distribution to the various stages of the product life cycle. Besides a potential cost reduction of yearly 400 millions EUR for European small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the service will highly facilitate the integration of the candidate states for EU-membership.

Objectives:
The project aims at the creation of a novel service dedicated to EH&S (Environment, Health and Safety), accessible via Internet to all European companies concerned with chemical products with hazardous potential.
This service offers the possibility to produce on-demand and at low cost the actual Safety Data Sheets (SDS) accompanying the complete product life cycle. It is focussed to the market of the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which cannot afford specialised in-house EH&S departments having the deep understanding of the frequently changing national and international safety legislation required to produce correct SDS.

Work description:
The project consists of following tasks:
a) To provide to the market the Internet-based service "SDS on-demand". This task consists to enlarge the TEKNON prototype already existing by adding the new knowledge bases prepared by DTC, representing the national legislation of all member states and of the Eastern European countries candidate to EU-membership and by implementing new functions guaranteeing a high-performance Internet-based service as well as confidentiality and user-friendliness
b) To use and evaluate the service "SDS on-demand"
Trials will be organised in four countries allowing a representative view of the European situation: Germany, Spain, Sweden and Poland. During one year 16 companies will use "SDS on-demand" in their day to day business activities, thus allowing an in-depth evaluation of the service.
c) Dissemination of the new service: The marketing of the service
"SDS on-demand" requires a new approach requiring to gain the confidence of the future users. In order to achieve this goal a marketing network in charge of supporting and promoting the service will be established, including public and private institutions well-recognised in the domain of EH&S. In collaboration with these institutions presentations of "SDS on-demand" both on conferences and exhibitions will provide the required dissemination.

Milestones:
The work will be achieved within 18 months. Dissemination will take place throughout the project period. The trials will be installed from month 2 to 5 and carried out during a complete year.
The result is a unique, well-evaluated and ready-to-launch Internet-based service in the domain of EH&S, able to meet the needs of the European small and medium-sized enterprises concerned with chemical products with hazardous potential.
The actual outcome of the project is a low-cost and user-friendly system for creation of correct safety data sheets (SDS's), which is accessible via the Internet to all European companies. The SDS-system contains multilingual interfaces and data meeting the requirements for the content of a SDS. A knowledge-based system for calculating the Danish code number has been developed and may be integrated with the SDS-system, as a supporting module. The project idea and the results have been presented at workshops held in each of the three trial countries for the participating companies and the national authorities, industrial organisations and labour market organisations. Furthermore the project has been presented at the following conferences: Gefahrstofftage 2001 in Munich, ICAC 2002 in Denmark and ChemCon 2002 in Basel. The SDSonWEB service has been tested at 4 companies in Denmark, several companies in Poland and one company in Germany and the feedback on system usability has been collected.
