Abstract: The invention is directed to a computerized system and method to allow manufacturers to ensure that their products are free of environmentally undesirable substances, such as toxic elements and chemicals, and thus comply with government substance regulations. The computerized system allows manufacturers to integrate substance information that is relevant to government substance regulations into an overall product lifecycle management system that makes this information immediately available to product design, manufacturing, purchasing, quality assurance, sales and regulatory personnel, thus facilitating production of environmentally compliant products.
