SDS Management — Rain Carbon Inc.
The Challenge
Rain Carbon generates a large and continuously growing volume of Safety Data Sheets through SAP. These documents needed to remain current, compliant and easily accessible across the organisation. Finding the correct SDS across scattered systems was time-consuming and created unnecessary operational and compliance risk.
Objective
- Centralise Safety Data Sheets.
- Make documents searchable within seconds.
- Maintain a governed repository.
- Improve organisation-wide access.
- Support audit readiness and compliance.
What Athen Built
Athen connected SAP and SharePoint Online to create a centralised, governed repository for Safety Data Sheets. Documents flow from SAP into SharePoint, where they are categorised using metadata and made accessible through enterprise search.
How It Works
SAP Integration
SDS documents generated through SAP flow into the SharePoint environment.
Centralised Repository
SharePoint provides a single location for managing and accessing SDS documents.
Metadata Classification
Product details and hazard classifications are used to organise the documents.
Enterprise Search
Metadata refiners make it possible to locate specific safety sheets quickly.
Business Impact
- Faster SDS retrieval
- Centralised document management
- Consistent organisation-wide access
- Better governance
- Improved audit readiness
Technology
Why It Matters
When critical compliance information is scattered across systems, finding the right document becomes an operational problem. Athen connected business systems, document management and enterprise search into one governed workflow.
