Regulatory Impact Analysis

Regulatory Impact Analysis

The Challenge

• Existing regulations change
• Legislation changes requiring a
  component/substance to be added or deleted from
  an SDS
• Substance data changes (OEL, etc)
• Component/Substance exists in multiple products
• Documents have already been published
• Change must be reflected in multiple products and
  republished
• Multiple templates exist for multiple plants and
  languages

Historically

• WERCS Users load regulations from LOLI.
• SDSs are written based upon the current
  regulatory values.
• SDSs are published.
• If a regulation changes for a single chemical,
  the data point is updated, report is run to
  identify products affected and the affected
  documents are republished using the Product
  Grouping Wizard and Publishing Tools.

The Solution- Regulatory Impact Analysis

• Browse
• regulation data
• regulatory lists
• examine CAS, component ID, name, in Wercs
  database
• chemical names/translations
• Reporting tool to prepare for regulatory loads
• reports generated based on customizable criteria
• percent threshold, print flags, generics, models,
  etc.

Regulatory Impact Analysis

• Compares current data stored in the Wercs to the
  identified changes in LOLI
• Report identifying all affected products for
  re-publishing prior to loading data
• changes, additions, deletions
• Generates a batch job with the dynamically
  created product group including product aliases.
• The affected products/aliases will be
  re-published behind the scenes according to your
  defined criteria
