RFID scanning technology and procedures are now available for faster and easier chemical inventory reconciliation, which is performed regularly to ensure the physical hazardous/reportable chemical and gas inventory in a room matches what’s in the CMS inventory.
A site-wide wall-to-wall inventory reconciliation using RFID scanning has started as of August 2023. See the site-wide rollout overview for details. After reconciliation, it is the responsibility of chemical owners and users to maintain an accurate inventory until the next cycle (at least once every two years).
Chemical users will be trained on the new equipment and reconciliation App over the remainder of the year. Old CMS barcodes are no longer required and should not be used.
