The National Shipbuilding Research Program. Application of Industrial Engineering Techniques to Reduce Workers' Compensation and Environmental Costs - Deliverable H

Abstract

As a sub-task of the NSRP project, Application of Industrial Engineering Techniques to reduce Workers Compensation and Environmental Costs (8-96-3), the NASSCO Environmental Engineering Department performed an investigation of various waste management software. The investigation involved searching for efficient methods of tracking costs and volume of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes using industrial engineering techniques. The hazardous material/waste management software ExecuTrax from Wixel, Inc. was chosen for its capabilities for an optimum management of information. This report describes the logistics of implementing the software at the NASSCO shipyard.
