Case Study: British Airways Engineering achieves safer chemical management with Alcumus Sypol CMS

Sypol CMS Helps BA Engineers Work Safely

British Airways Engineering, the highly complex global engineering division of British Airways, needed an effective system to manage the safe use of approximately 500 chemicals across its many varied work environments. Their challenge was to provide engineers with accurate, job-specific safety guidance to ensure compliance and protect staff. They partnered with Alcumus and implemented its Sypol CMS, an online COSHH risk management tool.

Alcumus provided the Sypol CMS system and comprehensive training, making it easy for staff to access substance assessments and safe handling instructions tailored to specific tasks. The solution was quickly adopted, receiving high employee engagement and empowering engineers to drive best practices. The measurable results included simplified processes, global access to information, and a strengthened safety culture where staff take personal responsibility for safe chemical use. British Airways Engineering was so pleased with the results from Alcumus that it is now looking to roll the system out across the wider business.
