DESCRIPTION

Many companies handle Safety Data Sheet (SDS) authoring and generation with basic tools like Microsoft Word and Excel. These processes are not scalable, especially given the increasingly complex regulations matrix, and often result in overextension of your resources. Quantum’s SDS Authoring and Generation solution standardizes your SDS data entry, streamlines authoring and generation processes, and ensures automatic compliance with regulatory requirements.
