Inconsistent Compliance Practices Created Risk Across McWane’s Footprint
During the last decade, EHS compliance programs were the responsibility of local plant management, based on the philosophy that they were better suited to evaluate, understand and address the unique issues confronting their facilities. However, over time, it became apparent that more standardization and supervision was necessary to ensure company-wide compliance with all the complex EHS issues associated with its heavy industrial processes.
Why McWane Selected Dakota Software to Unify Compliance Oversight
To address these challenges, McWane selected Dakota Software’s ProActivity Suite®. The decision was driven by the need to centralize compliance documentation, standardize tasks, and ensure that site-level actions aligned with corporate expectations. With Dakota, the EHS team could implement a unified system to manage audits, inspections, and corrective actions with greater visibility and accountability.
”Dakota not only helps us close corrective actions, it helps us track them and make sure they are closed out.
