Medgate Launches EHS Professional Edition for Mid-Market Organizations

Toronto, May 17, 2017 -- Medgate Inc., the global leader in enterprise-grade, SaaS-based Environmental, Health, Safety, and Quality (EHSQ) risk and information management solutions has introduced a new packaged solution that brings powerful EHS process automation capabilities to meet the business and program needs of mid-market organizations. This new solution brings 32 years of industry best practices into a rapidly deployed SaaS platform that is easy to use and ready to go for companies whose complexity of operations warrant enterprise-grade software, but require a solution designed for smaller scale operations.

To compete in today’s ever-changing regulatory environment, organizations can no longer rely on spreadsheets, legacy applications or point solutions, particularly when demands continue to increase on already-stretched EHS resources.

Beyond the benefits of automation and risk mitigation, effective EHS programs are a competitive advantage. Until now, organizations looking to move to an advanced EHS software solution have found that although highly functional, some enterprise systems were too complex and costly for their needs. On the other hand, mid-market software simply offered ‘less for less’ or promised low cost and simplicity only to push a large configuration and customization burden onto the user.

This unmet market need is now addressed with Medgate’s EHS Professional Edition.

“Medgate has grown to be the leader in serving enterprise-scale clients, but we began to see a major gap in the market for serving EHS professionals in mid-market organizations,” said Medgate Director of Product Management, John Easton. “With our true SaaS platform, purpose-built workflows and rapid deployment approach, we saw an opportunity to bring the power of Medgate to an entirely new market. We studied the competitive landscape and have further refined the offering to bring something very unique for this market in Medgate’s EHS Professional Edition.”

Available immediately, the solution provides Medgate best practice workflows out-of-the-box, with simplified configurability to meet unique business needs. The solution covers:

• Event Management
• Findings & Actions
• Audit & Inspections
• Risk Assessment
• Employee Portal for any device
