What are the critical steps to success when scaling an EHS software system enterprise-wide?
Using software to manage EHS processes is a widely deployed and mature tech category. But quantifying the cost savings to develop an internal business case is a tall order for many EHS leaders juggling plenty of other mission-critical priorities.
Potential ROI timelines vary according to modules deployed, customer industry, number of users, and country of deployment, to name a few aspects.
In our webinar, we will address the WHYs and HOWs of manufacturing companies looking to scale their EHS system across the organization:
Cost-efficiency
KPIs measured across the company in a consistent way
Uniform processes, global reporting, and uniform ways of addressing EHSQ goals & challenges
Reputation: not an old-fashion factory, keep up with the latest tech, the need for young talent
Aligning to the future & “ the digital organization”
The challenge:
Risk & controlling the risk – what happens when you implement change at a global, multi-site level
Getting buy-in (decision-makers not pushing for buy-in at global, group level)
Project scope overwhelm: scaling software can seem like too big of a task, extensive buy-in needs to be secured, mistakes can have impactful consequences.
Analysis-paralysis: overcoming the need to plan every single detail upfront and shifting to execution and iteration.
Critical success factors:
Choosing the right implementation model
Leadership team (IT, management, EHS, business, HQ/Plants) need to be aligned on the goal and the scaling approach and processes.
