Client Requirements

- Vendor should have previous exposure to proving (M)SDS services and should have skilled staff with background and understanding to subjectively evaluate the documents based on client rules.

- Hazardous information is listed throughout the (M)SDS, so a thorough reading is necessary in order to classify correctly. Vendor staff should be able to classify the (M)SDS correctly based on all the hazard statements made by the manufacturer regarding the properties and hazards of the material and to assign Health, Fire and Reactivity and PPE rating for each of the product which can be solid, liquid, gas, aerosol or powder.
- The vendor was expected to have infrastructure in place to scale up as per ramp up plan leading up to fifteen thousand documents per month.
