New SAP tools offer greater customer efficiency and capabilities in dangerous goods transportation logistics.

Labelmaster has released a set of SAP integration tools for its Dangerous Goods Information System (DGIS) software. DGIS is robust software to manage compliance with hazardous material transport regulations. Customers use DGIS to manage the safety and compliance risks involved in transporting hazardous materials and to drive efficiencies in the shipping process.

SAP focuses in industries where hazmat compliance is most acute, such as the pharmaceutical industry. Using DGIS as a complementary solution to SAP offers customers compliance and efficiency benefits by leveraging SAP’s powerful core systems with DGIS-focused capabilities in hazmat transportation.

Labelmaster partnered with Norstar Consulting Group to develop SAP integration tools. Norstar offers SAP experience and involvement in hundreds of implementations, including many where hazardous material transport was critical.
