Desarrollo de un sistema de información para la eficiente gestión de sustancias químicas con base en la Norma Oficial Mexicana NOM-018-STPS-2015

The technologies of the information nowadays are essential in the development of our daily life. They have been reflected in various activities and serve the purpose of integrating various branches of science. Having this in mind, the development team achieved to identify that in the division of chemistry at the technological university of San Juan del Rio, there was the necessity to have a web platform to consult the substances that are in storage. And also provide a tool for the implementation of the official Mexican norm NOM-018-STPS-2015 which has the purpose of identifying the dangers and risks of dangerous chemical substances through the use of pictograms. The software development stages were implemented using XP (Xtreme Programming) being that it’s an agile methodology and it allows to prioritize tasks according to the client’s requirements, using the programming languages PHP 7, MySQL and HTML 5. The acquired result was a web system with the modules of queries, substances information, which was used by students of chemistry engineering who evaluated the platform via a survey, and accomplished a 75% of satisfaction.
