ChemCenter is replacing OKEA’s fragmented legacy tools – Chess, Dmaze and ChemiRisk – with one unified system that brings the chemical inventory, safety data sheets, risk assessments, chemical approvals, exposure registration and substitution into a single application.  

The most critical function in this delivery was the chemical approval workflow. By combining user input from the approval process with system data – safety data sheets, regulatory frameworks and hazard lists – ChemCenter delivers efficient, audit-proof chemical management. The delivery also covered migration of chemical data from multiple legacy systems into ChemCenter as one true data source for chemical management.

  • Efficiency gains through automation of processes

We wanted to streamline and, where possible, automate the process of chemical management. Bringing all chemical management into one application, with a well-structured workflow for applications, risk assessments, case handling, and the chemical inventory, has been a clear objective. ChemCenter provides this, while also enabling easy integration with other applications and offering modern simplifications and customisations.
