Deep dive


Cority Environmental Cloud, a part of the CorityOne platform, was made to support organizations in their effort to simplify the handling and management of environmental compliance and sustainability goals. It will centralize and standardize the environmental management of a company to help with regulations, track performance, and minimize risks.

Solutions

Air and Water Emissions Tracking

Environmental Cloud helps track emissions to the air and water. For instance, a factory emitting gases or using water in productions is monitored by this tool to ascertain the quantity and quality of such emissions. It enables the company to stay within the legal limits of emission through regulations provided by agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (e.g. Clean Air Act). By recording this information, companies can avoid fines and work toward emission reduction over time.

Waste Management

It also provides waste management tools, both regular and hazardous. Companies can log waste amounts produced, track handling, and monitor methods of disposal. The Environmental Cloud makes it easy to log this information and check that disposal is done in a safe and legal way, improving company practices of waste management.

Spill Management and Incident Tracking

Accidents, such as hazardous substance spills, can occur; however, Environmental Cloud enables companies to manage such incidents efficiently. In case of a spill, for instance, employees would log into the platform, recording the incident and the events that occurred and how the situation was dealt with. This helps companies keep records, learn from incidents, and ensure corrective actions are taken to prevent future spills.

Compliance with Environmental Regulations

Environmental regulations can be complicated, with special rules regarding emissions, waste handling, and spill management. Environmental Cloud helps companies maintain compliance with key standards, such as the ISO 14001, an international standard for environmental management systems. The platform organizes compliance documents, schedules audits, and provides reminders for regulatory deadlines.

“Cority is competitively advantaged when it comes to environmental software and compliance calendaring. The software offers robust calculations and enables end users to change their calculations. We haven’t found a comparable software.”

Real-Time Environmental Data Monitoring

With Environmental Cloud, companies are able to monitor environmental data in real time and hence identify issues as they occur. For example, when emissions go beyond the set limit, the system will trigger alerts to teams so immediate action can be taken. Real-time monitoring will, therefore, enable firms to take a more proactive stance in managing their environmental impact and swiftly take control of impending adverse impacts.

Data Analytics for Improvement

Environmental Cloud provides analytics that can show companies trends and patterns to make improvements. For example, if the water usage spikes at any facility, analytics can show that, and it will help the team investigate and take action to reduce the usage. This data-driven approach lets companies find ways of cutting down on waste, emissions, and energy use and work their way toward a more sustainable operation.

Carbon Management

Carbon Management makes it easier for companies to track and report their greenhouse gas emissions. This tool helps monitor emissions like carbon dioxide and methane, ensuring compliance with international regulations such as ISO 14064, an international standard for measuring, managing, and reporting GHG emissions. It provides detailed reports that allow businesses to see their emissions trends over time and adjust their operations to meet carbon reduction goals.

Management of Change

Management of Change is designed to help businesses handle operational changes in a controlled and safe manner. For instance, when introducing new equipment or processes, this tool ensures every change is reviewed for risks and planned carefully, avoiding delays, accidents, or compliance violations.

Audits and Inspections

Audits and Inspections help businesses manage regulatory and safety audits effectively. This tool schedules inspections, tracks findings, and logs corrective actions. By maintaining detailed records, the tool makes it easier to demonstrate compliance during external audits.

Risk Management

Risk Management focuses on identifying and addressing risks before they cause problems. It gives managers a clear view of where risks exist, such as unsafe working conditions or outdated safety procedures.

Document Control

Document Control centralizes all compliance-related documents, making them easy to access and manage. Businesses can securely store permits, safety reports, and training records in one place. This reduces the time spent searching for files and ensures that all documents are up-to-date and available when needed.

Chemical Management

Chemical Management is essential for tracking chemicals used in operations. This tool manages the entire lifecycle of chemicals, from when they are brought on-site to their disposal. For example, it can help companies create an inventory of hazardous substances, store safety data sheets (SDS), and track how chemicals are used or discarded. This ensures employees handle chemicals safely and that the company complies with regulations like OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard.

Incident Management

Incident Management helps companies quickly respond to and document accidents or environmental incidents. If a chemical spill occurs, employees can log what happened, identify the cause, and track the cleanup process.
