Our philosophy
Our goal is to rationalize both your system & ongoing maintenance
Our process to achieving guaranteed UKAS ISO 14001 Certification has been repeated time after time & is as follows:
01
Initial meeting to gain knowledge of your organization
We will simplify the whole process, remove the mystery & hopefully any fears as well, assessing your Environmental Aspects & Impacts while instructing on the Evaluation of these Aspects.
02
Draft ISO 14001 Information Security Management System (EMS)
Your consultant will produce & email an ISO 14001 documented system specific to you for review.
03
Management System Completion
During the second visit, your consultant will fully explain the system to you, advise & train on the next steps – all documentation supplied.
04
Assistance in implementation
For larger organizations, there will be visits to coordinate & maintain momentum towards ISO 14001 UKAS Certification. For all companies, there will be continuous & free support by email & telephone.
05
Internal Audit of system & training of auditor/s
We will audit all aspects of your company to ensure your system is working for you & your people are effectively working within it. At this time someone from your company will be trained to conduct your future internal audits, leaving you self-sufficient with no need to pay for our services again! The audit can be seen as a “dummy run” prior to the formal UKAS ISO 14001 Assessment.
06
Finalise Information Security Management System
Should our audit identify areas for improvement we will revise your Mgt System as required & assist in the application for your Ext Assessment by a UKAS Approved Cert Body.
07
Representation/Support during UKAS Assessment
The UKAS approved body will not be there to interrogate you; they will merely be looking for evidence that you are compliant with your own system & the ISO 14001 standard itself. This process can be daunting to those experiencing it for the first time – fear of the unknown. Your consultant will use their experience to allay those fears & help you point your assessor in the direction of the evidence they are seeking. ISO 14001 Programme duration is normally 3-9 months and is dependent on the size & complexity of your business/organization. We have fast-tracked to 30 days, but that is exceptional. Multiple ISO Certifications can easily be achieved simultaneously; rationalizing documentation content & minimizing consultation fees. Maintenance: We offer a full range of services if required & including, Internal Auditing, System Revision, and Training, etc.
