IMDS  (Interna/onal  Material  Data  System)  

Efficient  management  of  a  huge  amount  of  data  

Easy  overview  on  chemicals  in  parts  

Quick  feedback  and  effec/ve  communica/on  between  suppliers  and  OEMs  

In  1999,  7  OEMs  decided  to  develop  one  common  collec/on  tool  

Challenges   Target  

Web  based   Standardized   Quan/ta/ve  report  Computeriza/on  

Move  from  Paper  to  Electronic  Data  

Fulfillment  of  legal    requirements  with  lowest  effort  

•  The  automo/ve  industry  collaborated  with  EDS  (now  HP)  on  an  innova/ve  new  database

Criteria:  •  Substance  expected  in  automobile  part  or  vehicle    •  Substance  is  regulated  or  projected  to  be  regulated  •  Reportable  threshold  levels  will  be  based  on  the  lowest  level  required  

by  regula/on  or  scien/fic  evalua/on.

•  Within  the  whole  supply  chain,  each  supplier  has  to  enter  the  substance  &  material  informa/on  for  his  component  to  the  IMDS-­‐account  of  his  customer  

•  Results  in  a  more  or  less  complex  “Material  Data  Sheet”  that  is  sent  from  the  Tier  1  Supplier  to  the  car  manufacturer  (OEM)  

•  The  OEM  is  using  the  data  to  check  compliance  of  the  purchased  parts  and  substances  for  internal  requirements  as  well  as  legal  obliga/ons  

•  Each  level  of  the  chain  can  (and  is)  using  the  data  to  check  and  proof  compliance  

•  Data  ownership  (and  responsibility)  is  on  data  creator  site  

•  Data  cannot  be  modified  by  the  reciever  (without  genera/ng  a  new  version  (Data  ID)

IMDS  Func/on  &  Rules  •  Recommenda/on  001  (general)  

–  In  principle,  agreed  to  by  all  par/cipa/ng  OEMs  –  Addresses  rules  surrounding:  

•  Level  of  disclosure,  including  –  Pseudo  substances,  such  as  ABS,  ceramics,  etc…  –  “joker/wildcards”  represen/ng  non-­‐GADSL  industry  confiden/al  substances  

allowed  to  be  stated  within  a  material  up  to  10%  by  weight  total  •  Published  materials  

–  By  IMDS  Steering  Commi`ee  and/or  recognized  industry  bodies  –  Problems  with  individual  company  published  data  quality  &  accuracy  along  

with  accessibility.    ***need  for  lowest  /er  engagement  •  Con/nuing  evolu/on  as  disclosure  needs  expand  

•  Recommenda/on  019  (electronics  repor/ng)  –  Developed  by  mainly  Tier  1  supplier  group  for  collec/ng    compliance  data  &  simplifying    (i.e.  Flat  BOM)  submissions  

•  Material  naming  conven/ons  for  components  <5g      (in-­‐progress)  •  Use  of  ‘standard  material  set’  for  describing  populated  PCB  

IMDS  9.0  /  Recent  Changes  •  IMDS  Updates  in  past  5  years  

– New  look    &  new  platorm  (right  click)  – New  func/onality  focused  on:  

•  Data  Quality,  checks  suggest  correc/ons  (ex.  material  classifica/ons)  •  Data  Ownership,  restrict  unauthorized  copies  •  Allowing  faster  updates  to  flow  from  material  manufacturers  up  through  supply  chain  to  downstream  end  customers  

•  Up-­‐coming  Enhancements  to  focus  on:  – Unified  requirements  (OEMs  &  /ers)  –  Supply  Chain  Confiden/ality  –  Published  data  accuracy  &  accountability  –  Flexibility    for  new  environmental  regs  (ex.  Biocides)

Lessons  Learned  •  Benefits  

–  Well  established  process  across  the  automo/ve  industry  –  Provides  a  consistent  means  of  repor/ng  for  suppliers  –  Reduces  costs  by  having  harmonized  rules  for  fulfilling  various  global  

chemical  regulatory  regimes  •  Issues  

–  Took  5  years,  at  least,  to  reach  data  quality,  and  work  is  on-­‐going  –  Data  is  only  as  good  as  what  is  entered  

•  Must  rely  on  supplier  support  and  informa/on  •  Regional  concerns  with  raw  material  data  

–  Only  applies  to  exis/ng  regula/ons  and  is  not  future  looking  •  GADSL  list  is  based  on  current  &  pending  regula/ons  •  Discussions  on-­‐going  about  expansion  to  include  forecasted  substances  for  

informa/on  purposes.  –  An  inves/ga/on  for  a  given  substance  via  IMDS  can  take  up  to  6  months  

due  to  repor/ng  complexity  in  the  automo/ve  supply  chain  –  Based  on  CAS  numbers  as  substance  iden/fies  and  not  always  provided  in  

regula/ons  

Addi/onal  considera/ons  •  IMDS  is  an  automo/ve  system  working  very  well  for  car  manufacturers  

•  Suppliers  have  indicated  a  need  for  more  mul/-­‐industry  collabora/on  concerning  informa/on  on  chemicals  in  materials  and  products  

•  Drivers  –  Opera/onal  efficiency  –  Compliance  &  Reputa/onal  risk  –  Stakeholder  expecta/ons  

•  Benefits  –  Crea/ng  sustainable  product  development  processes  –  Improved  risk  management  –  Expor/ng  a  global  culture  of  responsibility
