A brief description of the program:

Chemical and radiation tracking: EHS and IT have implemented HMMS, a comprehensive tracking system that provides EHS and the McGill research community with the tools to manage and monitor the acquisition, use and disposal of hazardous materials. The radiation module of the software is now live and Phase II, the chemical tracking module is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

In progress: chemical tracking system. When one professor takes advantage of a bulk discount, any surplus can be identified and transferred to other labs on campus, as opposed to each professor ordering in isolation.
