Environmental follow-up, Safety control, Land management

 

Mentol : Control and analysis of Environmental, Safety and Land management data, for extractive industries (classified facilities, control agencies, engineering consulting offices, etc...) engaged into an improvement process, for example in the scope of ISO 14001, or simply of an internal policy.

 
To face growing requirements in this fields, you need to control and diffuse data. 

Based on the latest computer technology, it takes advantage of the Web possibilities, to offer high reliability and flexibility.

> Data organisation

  • Data centralisation and harmonisation
  • Selection of the level of detail
  • Diagram creation, to locate measurement points and indentify the means implemented to limit nuisance
  • Document management


> Compliance control

  • Integration of decrees, standards, specific thresholds
  • Regulatory compliance control
  • Equipment compliance check
  • Competence / job adequation control


> Statistical treatments, technical or commercial documents

  • Statistical analysis and treatments, help for decision-making
  • Graphic studies: graphs of evolution, comparison or correlation, etc.
  • Technical and commercial document generation: summaries, administrative balances, decennial balances, non-compliance sheets, reporting, ...


> Planning

  • Royalty invoicing reminder
  • Task planning
  • Action plan follow-up
  • Automatic e-mail alerts


> Document management

  • Document categorisation and characterisation
  • Evolution follow-up
  • Link between documents and related data
  • Direct access from the application

> Action plan follow-up

  • Progress checking according to fixed objectives
  • Action follow-up
  • Action plan evaluation analysis (progress comparison on several dates, % progress, etc.)

 

> Ask for information

ADVANTAGES
The use of a database allows information to be structured, more homogeneous and easy to process:
  • Paper data digitisation to improve traceability and find information more easily
  • Treatment of data that were ignored until now, to visualise evolution and take adequate steps
  • Alert programming for recurrent tasks
Data centralisation in a single entry format make it possible to define a common language for all involved people.

Thanks to its customisation flexibility, mentol can :
  • adapt itself to your current and future structure,
  • easily include new standards and technical requirements.
In order to fit software to your activity and needs, a customised support is available for set-up and familiarisation.

ABOUT MENTOL
Analysis generated by mentol can be exported to Windows© standard applications (such as Excel©) for more flexibility and freedom of result presentation.

It can communicate with measurement devices or specific software to integrate or export data (particularly to retrieve results from analysis laboratories), after a specific interface has been created.


HISTORY, CREATION
Mentol is an innovative and precursory application in its field. The project was launched in 2004 as regards the Environment part, in partnership with the ENCEM (a French environmental consultancy related to the aggregate producers union) and material producers. Needs expressed in the field have led us to complete it with safety and land management modules.
Today, an aggregate control module is being developed in order to include wil functionalities while taking advantage from mentol technology.

On the cutting edge of technology, mentol has been developed in full web, to offer optimum information sharing and much flexibility. it can also work in SaaS mode, to meet new economic needs (operating cost control), and we have called upon the services of a hosting provider to assure a perfect control of risks and security.

We have chosen to go on working in DELPHI language, in DotNet -a real professional tool for programmers- and to rely on SQL SERVER database management system, which is powerful and robust.
