Environmental, health, safety and sustainability software company Serenity EHS Inc. has raised $5 million in new funding to expand its operational workflow product offerings on the ServiceNow Inc. platform.

Base 10 Partners led the seed round, which was announced today. Including the new funding, Serenity EHS has raised $5.7 million to date, according to Crunchbase.

Founded in 2019, Serenity EHS offers a management system designed to help customers integrate their existing information technology, human resources and governance, risk and compliance processes on the ServiceNow platform.

Serenity EHS’ software includes support for EHS incident management, enabling any organization to streamline and standardize the management and reporting on any EHS incident. Support for investigation and root cause analysis allows users to perform investigations with support for 5-Whys, Corrective and Preventative Actions and Eight Discipline, common methodologies used to explore relationships underlying a particular problem.

The platform provides sustainability metrics that are said to streamline the tracking of any key EHS sustainability metric and map them to performance benchmarks, corporate or regulatory thresholds or limits. An audit and inspection module helps EHS teams manage all aspects of their audit and inspection programs, while data is also cross-mapped and updated for EHS and environmental, social and governance compliance, integrated with ServiceNow GRC applications.

Serenity EHS became an Elite ServiceNow partner in 2020 and has had early success with name-brand customers in the federal government, manufacturing, retail and energy sectors.

Serenity EHS co-founder Kris Markham sold his first company to ServiceNow in 2015 to help expand its governance, risk and compliance offering. Markham worked with fellow co-founder Peter Oneppo for over four years in the ServiceNow product management organization and future products team.

“We founded Serenity EHS to build on the success we experienced helping companies leverage the ServiceNow platform to drive their digital transformation,” Oneppo said in a statement. “We are expanding what the platform offers to support additional operational workflows tied to EHS and ESG.”
