The bottom line is simply, Risk management software will save a company time, money and lives.

Enterprise Risk Management Software

Risk management software is a critical tool during this economic downturn. Clearly the cost of an accident is detrimental to the economics of an organization. Mitigating risk and preventing accidents all together can save a company money, and improve public relations and save lives. To do this an organization needs an EHS software solution (also referred to as HSE software). Finding a modular solution is critical because your organization will have different data management requirements then the next. So a software solution that can meet your needs and expand as you grow is critical. DataPipe is one such program and not only does this software cover all aspects of environment, health and safety but Knorr Associates has been doing EHS software for over 30 years and DataPipe is the result of this success. If you are looking for a solution to manage all your EHS data in one integrated location so that you can benefit from data mining, incident reporting, accident investigation and general risk management, review DataPipe and take part in an online demonstration.

Organizations are required to report to federal agencies such as OSHA or EPA and comply with Occupational Heath and Environment, health and safety (EHS) regulations. Without the aid of an Occupational Health Software and EHS Software solutions such as Knorr Associates DataPipe, keeping track of the data can be a hassle, and actually cost an organization time and money. While most EHS software solutions are run on a desktop computer or laptop, Knorr Associates offers the ability to collect data via a PDA or hand-held device. The DataPipe questionnaires module allows a user to create custom surveys, audits and questionnaires. The user has total control over what the questions are, the question types, the order in which they are arranged, and so forth. The questionnaires can be downloaded to a PDA or hand-held and used out in the field to collect data. The responses can be immediately synced back to the main database.

DataPipe's mobile questionnaires module can be applied for use in administering medical surveys and histories.

Administering questionnaires without a mobile solution can be a hassle time consuming.

Instead, the questionnaire will be collected on the PDA/Hand-held and synced in only a matter of minutes.
