How EHSQ Leaders Avoid Bad Software Decisions

8 short lessons from EHSQ practitioners on what it really takes to implement EHSQ management software well.

A practical path to a faster selection:

Align people early, define needs once, and compare vendors with confidence.

This concise, 22-page guide collects advice from EHSQ leaders and experts who have gone through the process themselves, sharing what worked, what didn’t, and what they would change next time.

This is not a vendor shortlist guide. Instead, it explains the behind-the-scenes work that many teams overlook, such as getting stakeholders on board, securing budget approval, involving IT, and handling RFPs. This helps you move forward with confidence and avoid expensive mistakes.
