Executive Summary

This report contains an extract of the Verdantix analysis of the incident, audit and risk management capabilities of 23 environment, health and safety (EHS) software vendors. This analysis originally was produced in the 2019 version of the Verdantix Green Quadrant for EHS software (see Verdantix Green Quadrant EHS Software 2019). To help senior EHS executives identify the best-fit software, this software benchmark provides a detailed analysis of capabilities available from these vendors across 24 assessment criteria. This report finds that more than half of the assessed EHS software vendors achieved a score of 60% or higher. Buyers seeking incident, audit and risk management solutions have an assortment of vendors to consider and should examine industry-specific use cases and customer references as well as functionality for strengthening EHS user engagement such as mobile accessibility and EHS training content.
