We recently reviewed how data and analytics can enhance your EHS strategy and just how important it is in the modern EHS workplace. While use cases vary depending on which vertical of EHS your organization operates in, the analysis provided by modern analytics can be seen as a kind of storytelling tool – providing your C-suite guidance through predictive analytics, highlighting trends for staff members managing cross-national sites, or simply providing day-to-day pulse-checks on whether strategic goals are moving in the right direction. Whether your organization is already utilizing an analytics tool or currently looking for one, it’s important to find a tool that fits your organization’s needs and goals.
In this blog, we’ll take a deeper look into Cority’s CorAnalytics solution and answer the following questions:
- What is CorAnalytics?
- What drove Cority to invest in an analytics solution?

Why did Cority invest in an analytics solution?
Analytics is an essential topic in the market right now and we are seeing a lot of innovation. In 2021’s Verdantix survey on EHS budgets, EHS analytics topped the list for technologies planned to be rolled out. Over 70% of respondents were either planning to implement EHS analytics, or already had.
There are a few factors at play here; including increasing data volumes, the rise of predictive analytics, and a growing recognition of the importance of data literacy.
It’s no secret that EHS professionals are expected to work with increasingly larger data volumes, generating more reports with more detail than ever. This will only increase as EHS continues to become digitized; the adoption of mobile technology, wearables, APIs, and other integrations will see data volumes grow. Having more data means more valuable insights, but it also means more data must be managed and analyzed.
The growing movement towards predictive analytics also shows EHS teams are looking for data to create actionable recommendations. In order to make sense of the data we have, and to glean meaning from it, we must know how to interpret and work with it. While data is becoming more prevalent within companies and is heavily leveraged to make decisions, there are still many folks who don’t know how to navigate data and BI tools. With that in mind, many companies are looking for tools that make interacting with data an easy, painless process.
Having the right analytics tool to easily manage, analyze, and store your EHS data will increase your data quality, provide more actionable insights, and improve overall performance.
