What Makes the EHS-Dashboard™ by Higher Elevation Software Different?
Built for Lean EHS Teams with One Site or Many
A single-site organization isn't always small, and a multi-site organization rarely has a large EHS department. In both cases, the team running the program is often one to five people carrying the same OSHA recordkeeping, incident investigations, and corrective actions as a team 10x its size. We build the EHS-Dashboard™ for lean teams. You get incident, inspection, compliance, environmental, and quality workflows in one place, without the system administrator an enterprise suite assumes.
Live in Less Than 3 Months
Most organizations are running the EHS-Dashboard™ in under 3 months. Configuration happens through ordinary use rather than a development project, which is why the timeline holds. Long rollouts are not only a scheduling problem. Every month between signature and go-live is a month your team still runs the program on spreadsheets while paying for software it cannot use yet. We would rather you see value inside a quarter, start with one site or one workflow, and expand from there.
Configure the Software Without Developers
Your team builds forms, workflows, and dashboards without writing code and without a vendor change request. The digital form builder turns existing paper forms and spreadsheets into digital forms with conditional logic, calculated fields, risk scoring, required fields, photos, and attachments. Workflows, terminology, roles, and site structures follow how your organization is actually organized. When a regulation changes or a site adds a process, the person who understands the change can make it that week. You don't need a dedicated administrator or an IT project to keep the software current.
Which EHS Software Fits Your Organization?
Choose Benchmark Gensuite if your operations span many countries and need local-language interfaces at the frontline. You report under CSRD or similar international disclosure frameworks, or run product stewardship and supplier risk in the same system as EHS. You need ISO 27001 specifically to clear procurement.
Choose the EHS-Dashboard™ if you're a mid-market organization or you have a lean EHS team, whether you run one site or many, and you want the full system from day one. You want your entire program in one system, live in under 3 months. Your regulatory focus is OSHA and EPA, not international disclosure.
Why Choose the EHS-Dashboard™?
The EHS-Dashboard™ simplifies how organizations manage EHS and ESG data in one software.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Higher Elevation Software a good alternative to Benchmark Gensuite?
For mid-market organizations or those with lean EHS teams, yes. Benchmark Gensuite can serve mid-market companies, but its a la carte model is built for enterprise programs that expand one application at a time. The EHS-Dashboard™ includes everything at every tier, and most organizations are live in less than 3 months. For global enterprises with CSRD disclosure obligations or frontline teams that need local-language interfaces, Benchmark Gensuite is the stronger fit.
Is the EHS-Dashboard™ by Higher Elevation Software a fit for a single-site organization?
Yes. Our entry tier covers one or two sites with every feature included, and a single site can belong to a lean independent operation or one division of a larger company. You get the same incident, inspection, compliance, and environmental workflows as a 200-site customer, and you can add sites later without switching software.
What do we give up by choosing the EHS-Dashboard™ over an enterprise software?
Multi-language support and certifications built for global procurement. We run in English only and focus on US regulatory frameworks like OSHA and EPA rather than international disclosure regimes like CSRD. We hold a SOC 2 Type I attestation, while Benchmark Gensuite holds ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2, which some global procurement teams require.
