By making it easier for organisations to trade, SGS helps to add value to their businesses. It has harnessed the power of the Internet through a major investment in technology, which will place at the customer's disposal, an innovative, efficient and unique way of transacting.

SGS is pleased to announce the introduction of its Web-enabled Services – providing direct access to the broad range of services via the Internet. "No more faxes, no more paper filing, up-to-date status reports, and more!" says David Springett, Business Manager for this initiative within the UK.

A vast number of services are now available on-line through http://www.sgsonsite.com/redwood. In a few simple steps, a customer account can be created and inspection and testing orders immediately begin to be placed online. The status of your orders can be tracked and inspection and testing reports can be viewed online in the customer's private and secure account.

Direct notification by email to the company's desk, of order status changes are made, with inspection and testing reports electronically housed and archived in the customer's own secure "warehouse" with facilities to trend specified data and to forward automatically to counter-parties and colleagues. All provided in a user-friendly and efficient format. More information about the full range of functionality for SGS Redwood Services is easily accessible on the homepage at http://www.sgs.com/redwood
