Challenge
Delivering a comprehensive environmental management system that has a very specific scope is challenging. We had to determine appropriate coverage and ensure all stakeholders understood the requirements. Timely and frequent updating of procedures and policies is key to ensuring the successful delivery of this engagement.
Solution
Understanding the scope and the client’s requirements is key to the successful delivery of this project. Communicating the requirements of the EMS to a wide range of stakeholders has been vital to the success. We’ve provided EMS documentation that can be used across the client’s business, bi-annual updates to the legal register, and achieved successful external audits to meet the requirements of the ISO14001 standard.
