Case Study: Huron Valley-Sinai Hospital achieves time and cost savings with VelocityEHS Chemical Management

Huron Valley-Sinai Hospital Saves Time and Money with VelocityEHS

Huron Valley-Sinai Hospital, part of the Detroit Medical Center and affiliated with Wayne State University School of Medicine, faced mounting challenges maintaining paper safety data sheet (SDS) binders across its labs and hospital as regulatory changes (GHS/OSHA) loomed. Manual “update parties” and dispersed SDS manuals made compliance time-consuming and error-prone, threatening inspection readiness and operational efficiency.

The hospital adopted VelocityEHS Chemical Management in 2009, starting in its labs and then expanding system-wide. The cloud solution provided continuously updated SDSs, mobile access, quick report generation for inspectors, and container-level chemical tracking—resulting in real time and cost savings, improved inspection readiness, reduced risk of citations, and a fast return on investment.
