Statement of Work (SOW) Title: Safety Data Sheets on-line
I. Background
The Phoenix Indian Medical Center (PIMC) is 125 bed facility located in Phoenix, AZ. This hospital provides direct patient care with an ICU, ED, Medical Surge unit, and outpatient services. This facility serve the Tribes in the greater Phoenix metropolitan and as the referring facility for all the Tribes in Arizona.
OSHA requires employees to have access to MSDS/SDS. An automated system would allow access from any available computer. It would also allow increased access from laptops and smart phones.
Purpose / General Description
A. Improve safety of staff and patients by ensuring increased access to the most current information on the hazards of the chemicals on hand at the Phoenix Service Unit (PSU). This information will be provided via a web based Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)/Safety Data Sheets (SDS) program that provides a multitude of services including managing MSDS/SDS and creating a custom labels that comply with Federal OSHA safety requirements for secondary containers.
B. Ensure regulatory compliance. Improve compliance with the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard by managing SDS and Labeling of hazardous chemicals.
Environmental Rounds has identified these items to be deficient numerous times. Regulatory requirements are being updated regarding the Hazard Communication Standard. The new system is known as the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), will go into effect in 2015 and 2016. GHS requires all MSDS be replaced with SDS and a new labeling system be implemented for secondary containers with hazardous chemicals. Several years ago, PSU listed all chemicals in used by departments. This included NIH on the 5th floor. The list took about 6 months to compile. Many of the chemicals listed were duplicates used in different departments. The listing also included items like test strips, each color spray paint of the same manufacturer, correction fluid, and pharmaceuticals that OSHA exempts (drugs that are in pill or final form).
The total number of items on this list exceeded 3000. Environmental Health and Safety along with several other departments believes this inventory will be less than 1000 hazardous chemicals when these other chemicals are removed. To comply with OSHA and manage this new GHS system will be a daunting task for each department and will require hundreds of man hours.
Patient care and staffing related duties restricts Department Managers from devoting time to update and manage their SDS for their departments. Updating and managing SDS requires using multiple search engines or requesting updates from the individual manufacturers;
collecting them for binders in each department; indexing them; distributing them, backing them up with scans or secondary binders; and ensuring employees have been trained. From a risk management perspective, it is better that supervisors/managers with limited time available, focus on working with staff using the most dangerous chemicals to ensure they are using them safely than to spend time requesting and searching for updated SDS; updating binders; and archiving old MSDS no longer used (OSHA requires maintaining these for 30 years). Additionally, labeling of secondary containers will change with GHS implementation. Improper labeling of products including labeling with a permanent marker, and lack of hazard warnings has been cited during our environmental rounds. The new secondary labeling requirements will require name product, signal word (Danger or Warning), pictograms, and precautionary statements. Being able to conform to these requirements will require extensive time and may not be done adequately.
Therefore, having a system to simply create a custom label for secondary containers to print to commonly used labeling systems like Avery would be cost and time effective while increasing.
II. Period of Performance / Place of Performance
The period of performance shall be a base period of 12 months plus four 12-month option periods as follows:
The primary place of performance is Phoenix, AZ.
The place of performance is at the Government’s site. No contractor personnel has the authority to work off-site under this contract, unless approved in advance by the Contracting Officer.
