Integrated environmental and quality management system

ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 IMS

Implementing an integrated management system?

EQMS

ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 share the same high-level structure, simplifying the overall approach to consolidating requirements and creating a robust set of easily implemented integrated management system manual and procedure templates.

For organizations looking to optimize their management systems and improve overall operational performance, implementing an integrated management system is a strategic approach that aligns various business functions under a unified and efficient structure that captures the 2024 climate change amendments.

What is an integrated management system?

An integrated management system combines ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 as a framework to create a single, auditable integrated management system, allowing organizations to adapt more easily to changes in regulatory requirements, customer demands, or market conditions. When changes need to be implemented, the integrated nature of the system ensures that updates are applied consistently across all areas.

The integrated management system templates adopt the key concepts, principles, and structure of ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 and are designed to be implemented to function within current business practices and serve as an effective tool to help your business grow and improve.

An integrated management system (IMS) brings a range of benefits, including improved efficiency, cost savings, better decision-making, enhanced compliance, and a more streamlined audit process. By consolidating multiple management systems into a single framework, organizations can eliminate redundancy, reduce administrative burden, and enhance their overall performance across quality and environmental disciplines.

For customers in Australia and New Zealand, please note that the requirements of AS/NZS ISO 9001:2016 and ISO 9001:2015, and AS/NZS ISO 14001:2016 and ISO 14001:2015 are exactly the same. Our integrated environmental and quality manual templates are compatible with these standards.

What is an IMS manual?

An IMS Manual (Integrated Management System Manual) is a comprehensive document that outlines the structure, policies, procedures, and processes of the integrated management system. The IMS manual serves as a central reference that provides an overview of how your organization manages its processes across different disciplines within the integrated system.

The IMS manual specifically describes how the management system has been developed in alignment with an organization's products, services, processes, and activities, and the internal and external issues; and the risks and opportunities within the context of your organization.

With an integrated management system manual, organizations can ensure they are meeting multiple compliance requirements simultaneously. The IMS manual plays a critical role in guiding employees, auditors, and managers in maintaining compliance with various standards, improving processes, and ensuring the ongoing success of the integrated system.

What are the benefits of an IMS?

Stakeholders, customers and interested parties expect your business to demonstrate its commitment to managing its environmental impact by implementing and maintaining the tools and techniques that enable risk management throughout the business. Work with your suppliers and process owners to assess and limit the environmental impact of your products, services, and operations.

The integrated manual templates allow all types of organizations to implement the processes needed to achieve customer satisfaction, enhance sustainability, and satisfy the needs and expectations of workers, regulators, and other interested parties.

By combining the best practices from ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, an organization can enhance its overall performance, reduce redundancy, and meet customer expectations and regulatory requirements. The integrated system fosters continuous improvement, sustainability, and helps organizations achieve their strategic goals more effectively.

How do you implement an integrated management system?

We suggest you use the familiar Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) methodology to implement an integrated management system. The integrated manual and procedures allow you to concentrate on effective implementation rather than dealing with the structure of document design and combining multiple requirements.

The integrated management system policies and procedures should be edited consultatively and implemented, communicated, maintained, and controlled using a document control system to ensure that quality assurance practices and environmental sustainability goals are managed together to maximize their effectiveness while minimizing the administrative burden and resource consumption.

Once implemented, the integrated management system helps businesses better develop their policies, establish appropriate objectives and targets, implement processes to achieve policy commitments and take the required action to address risks and improve performance.
