Environmental, Health, Safety, and Quality Technology – 2021

November 10, 2021. MPG is a premier advisor to the Environmental, Health, Safety, and Quality (EHSQ) compliance & risk management market. We are keenly interested in the rapid development of several trends impacting the industry:

• The Biden Administration has made significant immediate commitments towards global climate change initiatives and EHS-oriented legislation, creating significant tailwinds for EHSQ vendors addressing this growing set of pain-points for customers

• Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting, though not specifically mandated by regulation, has seen rapid adoption as a critical global standard upon which companies are benchmarked

• Industrial Technology platforms continue to move into the EHSQ market, leveraging M&A and partnerships to gain solution capabilities across industrial-oriented categories like QMS, ORM, and worker safety

• EHS software vendors are increasingly seeking to embed learning / training into their platforms as a means to drive more effective and tailored corrective action on reported incidents & hazards, driving a recent wave of M&A activity to converge the two solution types
