Abstract: A system and method for monitoring environmental state that includes a structure element with a base substrate and at least one reflector element integrated to the base substrate, wherein the reflector element is physically configured with at least one response signature that is discretely expressed based on an substance induced environmental condition of the reflector element; and a remote monitor device comprising a transmitter and receiver unit and a controller, wherein the monitor device is configured to interrogate the structure element; detect a response signature corresponding to at least the one reflector element; and map the response signature to a corresponding substance induced environmental condition.

Abstract: Exemplary methods and systems herein provide a central marketplace for a requestor to request a product or service from an internal inventory or external vendor, receive approval for the request, and have the approved request fulfilled. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises method for requesting a product or service comprises presenting, by a computer, a catalog to a graphical user interface of a requestor of a corporate entity, wherein the catalog comprises a product or service selected from a database storing records for an internal inventory of the corporate entity and a plurality of databases affiliated with external vendors that are not a parent, subsidiary, or related to the corporate entity; and receiving, by a computer, a selection from the requestor of a product or service of the catalog. The catalog can be synchronized in real-time or periodically with the external vendors' products and services.
