<div>Hi </div>
<div>MSDSonline is a great resource for safety data sheets and GHS label printing. Chemtracker was used for 4 years but was clunky and not reliable. They may have made improvements over the past year or two.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We almost purchased Biovia for chemical management but decided to wait a year or two. Currently the chemicals are inventoried manually. Biovia was the best out of 3 other software las that we considered for Harvard's Center for Nanoscale systems.</div>
<div>Hope this helps.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Our University uses Chemtracker (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__chemtracker.org_&d=CwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=cRmvgfWT6iFcPiV0SR8BIe2H_crNKrQjWG3MIWJGoPY&m=_GeN3ZM8HcjgHZ9B2gWNwRwFjCne3Ped9h9Ecan4qi0&s=V0P5noFvBSR4isGAja1DKTSgYH6iCwkpIJhPMAPkeZA&e="><font color="red"><b>The MTL Mail Server has detected a possible fraud attempt from "urldefense.proofpoint.com" claiming to be</b></font> https://chemtracker.org/</a>)
to monitor chemical inventories across campus. It is managed by our Environmental Health & Services Department, or EHS (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.cmu.edu_ehs&d=CwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=cRmvgfWT6iFcPiV0SR8BIe2H_crNKrQjWG3MIWJGoPY&m=_GeN3ZM8HcjgHZ9B2gWNwRwFjCne3Ped9h9Ecan4qi0&s=WRw2osSgUZmemgqhvxmsZhhuLuRxhVxwlDIc_hsi-J4&e="><font color="red"><b>The MTL Mail Server has detected a possible fraud attempt from "urldefense.proofpoint.com" claiming to be</b></font> http://www.cmu.edu/ehs</a>).
They provide accounts to individual lab users so that lab managers, PIs, facility managers, etc. can track their own inventories. EHS can track chemicals campus wide and look at entire building inventories to determine whether they are approaching chemical
storage limits allowed by occupancy codes. In my experience, it is straightforward to use, and provides a user friendly interface for gathering information on inventories per room, per facility, etc. It also allows for barcode scanning, but I have not utilized
this function as of yet. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Our University also has a subscription to MSDS online (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.msdsonline.com_msds-2Dsearch&d=CwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=cRmvgfWT6iFcPiV0SR8BIe2H_crNKrQjWG3MIWJGoPY&m=_GeN3ZM8HcjgHZ9B2gWNwRwFjCne3Ped9h9Ecan4qi0&s=hCAi4NjJC6uDzKmO_hp8zK3RsMu7q-Kv2yaYVDpsFW4&e="><font color="red"><b>The MTL Mail Server has detected a possible fraud attempt from "urldefense.proofpoint.com" claiming to be</b></font> https://www.msdsonline.com/msds-search</a>).
When we click on a chemical in Chemtracker, it links to MSDS Online for easy access to the MSDS of interest.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Lastly, we use BioRAFT (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.bioraft.com_&d=CwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=cRmvgfWT6iFcPiV0SR8BIe2H_crNKrQjWG3MIWJGoPY&m=_GeN3ZM8HcjgHZ9B2gWNwRwFjCne3Ped9h9Ecan4qi0&s=TWtDVItDr6g09kW0P7-b3iZXCqcgQEIGyAMats6TnHI&e="><font color="red"><b>The MTL Mail Server has detected a possible fraud attempt from "urldefense.proofpoint.com" claiming to be</b></font> http://www.bioraft.com/</a>)
to manage safety training, lab inspections, forms, etc. for PIs, staff, students, and postdocs. Each PI has their own BioRAFT account for managing their students, postdocs, etc. As a lab manager, I have an account for managing each of the users of our facility.
It is good for managing and monitoring safety training, chemical forms, safety forms, etc. The interface seems to me a bit cumbersome at times, but overall, I do like the package. BioRAFT has been working with our EHS Department to improve the interface
and customize it to our needs, but this is the only feedback I have on their customer service at this time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have not posted for a while, because in the last year, I have changed jobs from Cleanroom Manager to Safety and Chemical Hygiene Coordinator for our College of Engineering and Mineral Resources. Currently my university is evaluating
new software systems for managing its entire chemical inventory. I would like to ask everyone what software their organization uses to manage their Chemical Inventory and Safety Data Sheets, and if they like it or not, or if they have problems? We would
like to know what systems work for peoples and which system don’t meet your needs.<o:p></o:p></p>
