Integrated Management Systems
Integrated means combined; putting all the internal management practices into one system but not as separate components. For these systems to be an integral part of the company's management system there have to be linkages so that the boundaries between processes are seamless.

We specialize in providing consultancy to client organizations in the certification of their systems to an Integrated Management System (IMS).

An IMS will consist of any two or more international standards on management systems like ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, etc.

An integrated system can result in certification to PAS 99 (a publically available standard on IMS) in addition to certifications to the individual International standards adopted.
