In a nutshell, SciShield has automated and improved the management of laboratory safety compliance and reporting.

"SciShield has advanced the conversation and culture of safety compliance . . . Researchers find the tool easy to use and therefore, easier to conform with safety compliance best practices."

Charles Riordan
Vice President for Research, Scholarship & Innovation
University of Delaware

“SciShield has advanced the conversation and culture of safety compliance requirements on our campus. Researchers find the tool easy to use and therefore, easier to conform with safety compliance best practices. Our EHS team now has a single portal to access safety training and lab inspection records, lab hazards, inventory of certain lab equipment, and more."

“…our support staff spend more time conducting value-added consultative tasks with our customers and less time chasing data by allowing SciShield to do the heavy lifting.”

Shane Solis
Director, Research, Campus, and Environmental Safety
University of Texas, Dallas

“When we began looking for strategic systems to support our laboratory safety program, we expected to purchase something along the lines of standalone LMS or inspection systems that could help us with training delivery and with digitizing our audit function. Had we continued down that path, we would have sold ourselves – and our customers, critically short. Selecting and adopting SciShield as central safety management platform versus adopting only specific training or inspection components has transformed the way we do business from planning to delivery to reporting.

The key to our success with SciShield is the underlying management platform that critically weaves and undergirds the foundation of 3 core areas of any safety program: people, the things they do and the places they do them. Because this is done through smartly designed web-based technology, the faculty and student experience is simplified and streamlined, and our support staff spend more time conducting value-added consultative tasks with our customers and less time chasing data by allowing SciShield to do the heavy lifting it was designed to carry. Today, it’s hard to imagine our team performing at its highest level without the core system support that SciShield provides to us. We look
forward to our key partnership with the SciShield team as we continue to evolve and enhance our safety offering.”

“Using the Inspection and Training Modules in SciShield… gives our team members more time to lead safety initiatives and drive effective change.”

Michael A. Gladle, MPH, CIH
Director University of Delaware Department of Environmental Health and Safety
University of Delaware

“In 2015, prior to using SciShield, our EHS team at the University of Delaware recognized that our existing research safety software no longer met our needs. We (Our EHS team) realized the need for a more robust enterprise system that reduced the administrative burden for researchers, had a great track record of adoption with our peer institutions, and allowed our EHS team to support and serve our researchers through an easily accessible system. We decided SciShield was the system we could grow with well into the future.

Using the Inspection and Training Modules in SciShield, we have seen tremendous acceptance by our research community and our compliance rates continue to improve. Since rolling out SciShield to the UD community we found out how much of an impact SciShield had at reducing our administrative burden. We now spend fewer labor hours finding, sorting, and manually entering data. This gives our team members more time to lead safety initiatives and drive effective change.

The quality of personal service we receive on an ongoing basis, and the level of trust we have built with the SciShield team has greatly enhanced our efforts towards change management within EHS and the research community. With this partnership, our research community has a greater level of satisfaction with on-line trainings and more engaged in resolving issues noted during the inspection process. We now have a reliable system with real-time and actionable data that we need to keep our community safe and reduce risk to the institution. We are looking forward to continue our partnership for years to come!”

“Our faculty and staff have been thrilled to have this system in place, and SciShield has made our EHS staff look like heroes.”

Robin Izzo
Executive Director of Environmental Health and Safety
Princeton University

“Like all of higher education, Princeton University strives to foster a healthy and strong culture of safety, where safety is integral to the work and study across campus. As administrators and partners, we in Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) do all we can to support the mission of research and teaching, and SciShield has allowed us to give our faculty, staff and students the tools they have been missing to track and manage safety for themselves and their lab, shop or workspace.

What’s more, our faculty, department managers and others have found ways to use the system to support their work, not just for safety and compliance, but for managing equipment and SOPs, keeping track of who is allowed to conduct specific activities in the lab, and other functions that we had not even considered. As a result, SciShield is becoming an integral part of their day-to-day management and tasks. Our faculty and staff have been thrilled to have this system in place, and SciShield has made our EHS staff look like heroes.”

Robin Izzo
Executive Director of Environmental Health and Safety
Princeton University

“The inspection analytics provided by the software, which are collected automatically, allow me to focus solely on the data and not on data collection.”

Joseph Passante
Director of Environmental Health & Safety
University of Pennsylvania

“SciShield  has totally changed the way my institution performs lab safety inspections. We have moved from an inspection mindset of showing up to “see what we find” to performing inspections with detailed knowledge concerning the hazards and inspection history of the laboratory. As a result, we can concentrate our finite inspection resources on the labs with high hazards or a history of noncompliance and better reduce risk.

SciShield also provides the Chemical Hygiene Officer with administrative tools to easily track the day-to-day progress of the inspection program freeing up time to focus on program development. The scheduling and messaging features of the software also reduces time spent by the inspectors preparing for inspections giving them more time to spend working with the research community. The inspection analytics provided by the software, which are collected automatically, allow me to focus solely on the data and not on data collection.”

“SciShield has always been willing to work with us to improve our system and tailor it to our needs.”

Heather Pearl
EHS Manager
Calico Life Sciences, LLC

"User-friendliness is a high priority for Calico users who are very tech-savvy and expect the best. Many of SciShield’s features are relatively easy to use, but a bit of a learning curve is required to get fully operational. I still find new features from time-to-time that I didn't know existed or was not certain how to use. Thankfully, your user guides are quite helpful, and your support services and staff are top-notch when we have technical difficulties.

…SciShield has always been willing to work with us to improve our system and tailor it to our needs. I also really like that new features and improvements are added to the system based on the industry's requests. Many have been great additions that we didn't think of ourselves and find quite helpful.

We have continued to use SciShield because your team is always willing to work with us to get our needs met, and you take our requests seriously. For example, your team is currently working on creating an SOP signature function for our training module that will allow us to assign our research staff specific SOPs as training and have easy access to the completed training records. This feature will be very beneficial.

Thank you for the partnership. I have always felt valued as a customer.”

We've worked with other EHS software companies,SciShield is the best. Their support is always available which is rare especially in an era when companies offer limited or mediocre support.

Anne Kogut
Industrial Hygiene Manager
Clemson University

“It’s been such a pleasure working with SciShield and seeing how much SciShield cares and is there for us. We've worked with other EHS software companies,SciShield is the best. Their support is always available which is rare especially in an era when companies offer limited or mediocre support.

SciShield has been a lifesaver now that much of our staff is required to work remotely due to COVID-19. We love the emergency status feature. It’s awesome that you made this feature available to your customers so quickly during this busy time.

SciShield’s Smart Mailer has also allowed Clemson to communicate with our labs to collect PPE donations. We were able to target groups based on PPE inventory including from students. We collected 1,000 surgical masks, 500 N95 makes, boxes and boxes of gloves and gowns. Smart Mailer was such a useful feature, and we could not have donated all this PPE without it.”
