Specialists in ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 9001, our professional consultants will support you with all aspects of your management systems development, implementation and maintenance
Our experienced consultants can start at the very beginning and help you build a bespoke management system from scratch. This typically involves an initial gap analysis to assess your current status against your chosen management systems standard(s). We’ll agree a timeframe for implementation and provide practical support throughout.
We have extensive experience developing systems for single disciplines as well as integrated systems that incorporate multiple disciplines including environment, energy, health & safety, and quality. We’re proud of our track record in helping our clients successfully achieve certification to their chosen management systems standards, e.g. ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 9001.
We don’t believe in “off-the-peg” management systems; we understand that one size doesn’t fit all and the most valuable support we can provide is in helping you develop a bespoke system that you have ownership of and that meets your specific needs.
Maintenance of existing management systems
When time and resources are under pressure, it can be difficult to maintain management systems to the level you’d like. Whether you operate one or more management systems, we can provide maintenance support to ensure they remain effective.
For more established systems, we’ll undertake a full or partial system review, providing improvement recommendations and highlighting opportunities to update and streamline your system to ensure its continued suitability. We also offer regular on-site support to facilitate progress with management systems requirements.
If you’re operating several individual management systems, we can help identify areas for integration and implement necessary changes.
Internal auditing
If you don’t have the expertise or resource to undertake internal audits, our professional consultants will act as competent internal auditors.
We are registered auditors with practical management systems knowledge and experience, capable of carrying out internal audits in line with your internal audit programme and reporting processes, taking the pressure off you and providing a fresh pair of eyes for your activities and processes.
We can also carry out pre-certification and pre-surveillance audits to give you the confidence that your system is ready to be audited by your external certification body.
Environmental aspects registers
Whether you’re new to the concept of environmental aspects or you want help updating an existing aspects register, we can help. Support can be provided to build an aspects register from scratch, ensuring you understand all the environmental aspects and impacts associated with your organisation’s activities, have robust significance scoring criteria, and a straight-forward method for identifying your significant aspects.
We can also provide a fresh pair of eyes for more mature aspects registers, reviewing and updating them to take account of changes in activities, compliance obligations, progress against objectives, etc., and ensuring aspects are re-evaluated accordingly to identify up-to-date significant aspects.
Testimonials
While Royal Mail has been working with the Company on implementing an environmental management system, I have been very impressed with the quality of their work. What sets them apart from other consultancies I have used is their ability to translate complex environment management systems into bite sized chunks so that our front-line operators can easily understand it.
They have been the key to AEV Ltd recognising and developing the exacting needs of the requirements of ISO 14001. The implementation work has been managed professionally, timely, and more importantly in an understandable manner. They gave us a first-class service.”
The consultant completed a comprehensive internal audit of our ISO 9001-certified quality system and delivered bespoke internal auditing coaching for a member of staff that has proved very beneficial. The work was delivered in a timely and cost-effective manner, tailored to our needs.
They provide us with an annual pre-surveillance audit ‘health check’ of our EMS giving us the confidence that our system is effective and ready to undergo an audit by our certification body. With their help we continue to successfully maintain our certification to ISO 14001.
The service has always been exceptional. Receiving training and auditing services tailored to our specific needs has played a vital role in our successful certification.
I found the gap analysis that the consultant performed for us was extremely helpful and informative and conducted in a professional manner. The report that was supplied at the end of the analysis was comprehensive and had a layout that was easy to follow.
