Too Many Standards? Learn to Integrate Them
Juggling Multiple Standards
Question: If you're implementing multiple quality standards, how can you avoid duplicate efforts without sacrificing the effectiveness of each system?
Answer: Organizations that succeed will learn and use the mantra: "Integration, Standardization and Linkages".
Integration saves money! Not only does it reduce external audit costs by 25%, it also increases internal efficiency.
Omnex is pleased to present a one-hour webinar overview that discusses the integration of ISO 9001:2000 or ISO/TS 16949:2002, ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007 into a single integrated management system, hosted by Omnex founder and CTO, Chad Kymal. This integrated approach will allow you to save both time and money by focusing on a single management system to fulfill all your management system requirements:
- many quality-oriented organizations adhere to multiple standards with overlapping requirements
- integration saves time and money by avoiding the confusion of multiple standards, reducing costs for implementation and reducing auditing costs by 25%
- integration fails when different groups within the organization take responsibility for separate standards, when middle managers attempt to maintain control of isolated systems or when there's a general lack of understanding about specific standards
- integration succeeds when standards are aligned, when processes are implemented accordingly, and when processes and requirements are audited together
Chad has authored an article for Quality Digest titled, "Juggling Multiple Standards". Please feel free to review this article to see for yourself how integrating management systems can benefit you.
