Scenarios where a company needs to have a lot of visibility and control over the materials it uses for manufacturing, companies that are generators of polluting materials and companies that need to manage different EPRs in different countries. It is perhaps less useful for smaller companies whose sector is not related or involved in waste management and who do not have much volume or presence abroad. These may be able to cope with a customised development that contains their costs.

  • On the subject of our Business, we need to have Ecovidrio (Ecoembes) declaration included in RDP, as soon as possible. It is urgent for us.
  • The features feed for uploading information to the RDP should be more streamlined and user friendly
  • I would also improve the data quality part, it doesn't really make it clear where the problem might lie.

Alternatives Considered
Propel
A major requirement for us was the ability to have a traditional ECN workflow, with multiple documents changed on the same workflow; most eQMS solutions do not include this capability. That ruled out several solutions for us. We selected Propel primarily because the cost was in-line with expectations and the reporting capabilities were excellent.

These are some of the other Risk Management softwares known of. Although these solutions may not match SAP's offerings as an entire package (as just focusing on the Risk management side for this question) and not fully knowledgeable to their capabilities but SAP Responsible Design and Production provides a reliable system that performs well and provides the data analytics we require.
