3E Company Introduces New Supply Chain Product Compliance Platform for Enhanced Regulatory and Risk Management
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
3ESC Features Automated Analytics and Reporting to Support Business Continuity,
Enhance Competitive Agility, Bolster Market Access, and Reduce Costs
Carlsbad, Calif., August 29, 2013 - 3E Company, a leading provider of
environmental health and safety (EH&S) compliance and information management
services, today announced the availability of 3ESC(TM), which facilitates
product compliance and mitigates supply chain risk. The new web-based platform
is the foundation for 3E's supply chain practice, and it is enriched with a
range of associated content, services, and solutions to support product
compliance initiatives. Those initiatives include compliance assurance, supplier
engagement, customer response, reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) due
diligence, and obtainment services, along with industry-leading information and
documentation management.
3ESC serves as a central repository for critical product, supplier, and raw
material risk information, including product contents, compliance status,
country of origin, and georisk. The platform is fueled by content collected from
upstream suppliers by 3E's team of global obtainment specialists and enriched by
3E's team of regulatory experts.
3ESC's scalability enables customers to nimbly respond to a broad scope of
requirements, including major compliance obligations such as Europe's
Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH)
regulatory framework; the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive
2002/95/EC (RoHS); and Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act, which regulates
conflict minerals. It can also be used to obtain, document, and manage the
wealth of product-specific data necessary to inform a complete compliance-based
product risk profile and to substantiate due diligence activities. With new
modules on the road map, an investment in the platform will also facilitate
compliance with regulations and obligations that emerge in the future.
Featuring robust analytical capabilities, the platform helps users quickly
identify high-risk products and suppliers. These analytics can help determine
which raw materials contain restricted substances; compliance risk by supplier;
and the regulatory risk by product or product category. This detailed analytical
data can be used to create a successful supply chain risk mitigation initiative.
"3ESC brings unprecedented depth, breadth, and foundational strength for
effective corporate supply chain compliance programs," said Connie Prostko-Bell,
director of supply chain compliance solutions, 3E Company. "This robust platform
provides manufacturers, retailers, and users of raw materials and finished goods
with the tools they need to understand both existing and emerging obligations,
supply chain risks, and market barriers and opportunities. The data plays a
critical role in compliance risk mitigation and is vital to the successful
management of supply chain compliance obligations. We look forward to helping
our customers not only meet these complex obligations, but also enrich their
businesses through improved market access and enhanced competitive agility."
3ESC is built on 3E's trusted and proven compliance solutions and its product
and regulatory data. The platform leverages the data and functionality of the
3E Online(®)-MSDS safety data sheet (SDS) management platform as well as the
Ariel WebInsight(TM) online regulatory compliance tool. 3E's SDS obtainment,
classification, SAP(®) EHS Management (EHSM), SDS authoring, and global
regulatory support services further enhance the foundation of this valuable new
offering.
