Regulatory Compliance EHS

I. STATEMENT OF WORK

A. SCOPE

It is the intent of this Request for Proposal to solicit proposals from firms qualified to provide

environmental and workplace health and safety information management systems and

implementation services for the East Bay Municipal Utility District (the District).

The District’s Regulatory Compliance Office (RCO), which is comprised of multiple work sections

including the Environmental Compliance Section (ECS) and the Workplace Health and Safety Section

(WHS), currently relies on outdated and unsupported data management systems—including Microsoft

Access, Excel, and various physical and digital files—to track critical Environmental, Health and Safety

(EHS) information. These tools are inefficient, difficult to scale, and increasingly unsustainable.

Microsoft Access, in particular, is no longer supported and is declining in industry use, raising serious

concerns about long-term accessibility and business continuity. Only a limited number of staff are

familiar with the existing systems; if they become unavailable, there is no institutional support or

backup, placing the District at risk of non-compliance. Many of the reports generated from this data

are legally required and time-sensitive; failure to meet these deadlines could result in regulatory

penalties.

The data being managed includes, but is not limited to, hazardous waste manifesting and reporting,

industrial hygiene data, worksite audits, injury tracking, and leading indicators used to proactively

identify and mitigate regulatory risks. Much of this data is spatial in nature, and in some cases, it is also

temporal or tied to employee-specific or task-based exposure and medical histories, which adds

further complexity. The current systems lack the ability to handle this depth and diversity of data. The

District is seeking a modern, modular Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that would allow for

centralized storage, facilitate statistical analysis, and support more informed, data-driven decision-

making. Such a system should, ultimately, save time, improve compliance, and reduce costs for the

District.

A modern, centralized system should:

Streamline workflows by allowing staff to access the same real-time data from anywhere,

eliminating bottlenecks caused by siloed Access and Excel databases and locally stored files.

Improves data searchability and reference by allowing users to quickly locate manifests by

generator site, waste stream, transporter, date, or EPA ID number—something that is slow and

cumbersome in Access.

Facilitates regulatory reporting and internal audits with automated generation of manifests,

summaries, and reports that are formatted for DTSC, EPA, or internal review, eliminating time-

consuming manual formatting and cross-checking.

Enables trend analysis and tracking across time and locations, helping staff identify waste

reduction opportunities, recurring compliance issues, or transporter inconsistencies.

Additional scope of work details may be found in the Supplemental A document.
