Overview

Proactive assurance of environmental compliance is a vital task for companies challenged by rapidly changing local, national and international legal requirements. By complying with regulations, companies avoid situations that could harm their business or even result in fines.

Environmental Compliance supports typical standard processes, e.g.:

► Plant permits - Management of operating permits and requirements

► EU pollutant registers and reports-
(e.g.EPRTR)

► Exception monitoring and management
(e.g. deviations)

► Carbon footprint (greenhouse gas emissions)

► Emissions trading according to EU schemes

► Environmental incident tracking

► Environmental monitoring network

Minimizing risksap

The SAP Environmental Compliance (formerly SAP xEM) solution jointly developed by TechniData and SAP supports a business compliance management that covers all regulatory requirements in the environmental domain relating to air, water and waste. This enables the conditions of an operating permit for a single facility to be addressed with the same level of efficiency as for a group-wide rollout and monitoring of company-specific rules and performance indicators.

Typical examples include support with recording and submitting emissions data to national or international pollutant registers such as EPRTR (European Pollutants Release and Transfer Register), managing plant monitoring and reporting processes (e.g. in accordance with the German Federal Immission Control Ordinance (BImSchG) or the U.S. Title V), or tracking corporate programs like carbon footprint initiatives worldwide.

Integrating compliance processes

SAP Environmental Compliance provides a standardized platform for managing existing and future compliance processes systematically. By integrating data, processes and staff seamlessly, compliance management becomes safer for the management team, less time-consuming for staff, and more trustable in the public eye.

Regulatory or internal requirements can be mapped, updated and assigned to facilities or users. Compliance status is monitored continuously so that deviations can be detected quickly, thus minimizing reaction times and reducing the overall costs of countermeasures.

TechniData ENVINET - Envirnomental monitoring network

When it comes to environmental monitoring, companies, institutions and public bodies put their faith in ENVINET monitoring systems. Worldwide, more than 3,500 TechniData measuring stations are in operation for online radioactivity monitoring alone. Stationary and mobile measuring stations collect the relevant environmental data on radioactivity, air, water and meteorology. But ENVINET can do more: it collects, interprets, and evaluates the data, then prepares it for your analyses, reports and presentations.
