The Chemicals Management Module (CMM), developed by the OIA Chemicals Management Working Group, is organized around seven primary objectives; three levels of performance (foundational, progressive, and aspirational); and with content specific to stakeholder groups (brands, retails, chemical suppliers and other suppliers). The CMM bolsters the chemicals management component of the Higg Index, and can also be used by companies as a standalone guidance tool.
The Chemicals Management Module is a road map for companies to benchmark, establish, build, maintain and improve chemicals management processes, and integrate them with other business processes as part of an overall corporate management system.
