Publication number: 20180300682Abstract: Embodiments herein include a computer-implemented method of a web application platform stored on a memory. The web application platform is executed by a processor coupled to the memory. The computer-implemented method of a web application platform includes receiving a parts list as an input and comparing attributes of the parts list with data standards. The computer-implemented method also includes producing material of concern data for the parts list based on the comparison of the attributes and evaluating the material of concern data against at least one preset material of concern list.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2017Publication date: October 18, 2018Inventors: Sandesh Swamidas, Harish Shivarudra Gowda, David J. Grulke
