Executive Summary
This report provides EHS decision-makers with advice on emerging best practices for planning EHS digital transformation efforts encompassing software and Internet-of-Things (IoT) solutions. Over the last two decades, the product landscape for EHS information management has shifted dramatically from compliance management systems, such as for incident logs and permits management, to workflow-based connected platforms for enterprise EHS management. Our research has found that customers need to adapt their technology strategies to the new EHS information management paradigm and re-evaluate their data needs, goals and outcomes prior to undertaking significant digital transformation investments. To future-proof their efforts, firms should assess their preferred systems architecture environment, establish long-term governance structures that support strategic flexibility, and dedicate full-time resources to change management.
