Product Chemical Management - Regulatory Status Report: USA leads the world in solutions

San Jose, CA, Oct 28, 2010- Green leader Papros Inc. today released a statement summarizing a regulatory status report resulting from studying global eco-regulations addressing supply chain chemicals and carbon management for product based compliance and other purposes. The announcement stated that USA leads the world in solutions, just as a previous report a few months back emerged from Europe that the EU led the world in creating chemical and green regulations. The reason, not surprisingly, is Papros Inc.’s offering MRPRO(TM), being able to track supply chain information from upstream and downstream partners using social networking on popular social media, most notably on Twitter. This marks a paradigm shift sheerly by the amount of time and effort saved during exchange of information of any and all kind.

MRPRO offers the spreadsheet as one interface for product data in addition to industry and W3C compliant XML formats for the data. MRPRO uses the social media to broadcast and capture product communications, files, test data, safety data, compositions, obsolescence information and other data in an efficient manner. This is done in such a manner, so multiple exchanges between suppliers and customers, some of which are in many cases bi-directional also, and often involving the same information being requested and supplied to many parties repeatedly, can be avoided by using the social cloud itself to share the information. Simply put, ideally using MRPRO, each supplier just declares once on the cloud and each customer declares their needs just once, and broadcasts and capture of other communications are similarly done efficiently.

By seamlessly exchanging data on the web or the desktop, the entire web is the database for MRPRO and the spreadsheet is the interface. MRPRO thus provides native support for cloud computing.

MRPRO supports Design for the Environment by easily exchanging product footprint, obsolescence information and due diligence communications in the realm of U.S. Conflict Metals Regulation, Canadian Chemicals Management, REACH, RoHS, RoHS-like (China, Korea), JMOSS, WEEE, EuP, AB 32, Green Chemistry Initiative, Extended Producer Responsibility and other emerging regulations. MRPRO enables compliance by full support for data conforming to EIA (supports the latest JIG), IPC 175x, JAMP, JEDEC, SAE and F2725. By enabling conformance to specific industry and cross-industry standards, MRPRO supports a complex supply chain that encompasses electronics, aerospace, medical devices, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and a multitude of more sectors. MRPRO offers unparalleled robustness in developing product footprints for components, assemblies, electronic products, light and heavy duty industrial goods and equipment, commercial machinery and also for other consumer products.
