Specialty Chemicals

Developing Evonik Degussa´s specialty chemicals products and services involves large teams and generates enormous volumes of environmental health safety and quality data. Coordinating and monitoring work of this complexity is far from easy. Environmental Performance Management provides an automated system for accessing, distributing and storing this information and managing workflows. It has enabled Evonik Degussa to streamline and accelerate the entire process, boosting productivity and reducing process costs.

Evonik Degussa GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Evonik Industries AG, is a multinational corporation consistently aligned to high-margin specialty chemistry. Their operating activities are pooled into twelve business units. Evonik Degussa is represented worldwide, at home on all five continents and based at more than 300 locations. They are operating key production facilities in some 60 countries and are also maintaining sales and marketing offices.

TechniData EPM provides Evonik Degussa with a collaborative environment for managing, tracking and controlling all ESHQ information throughout the entire organization.

TechniData EPM integrates all participants into the process. It gives workflow capabilities so that users can distribute ESHQ information in an orderly fashion and it provides reporting capabilities that make presenting and analyzing the required information much more efficient.

The solution also ensures that all information is available when required. Previously, locating the relevant ESHQ data was time-consuming and laborious. Now, more than 2000 Evonik Degussa employees spread out across dozens of sites can easily access necessary information within seconds.

With its TechniData EPM implementation under its belt, Evonik Degussa has been able to improve productivity for ESHQ related processes.
