About-IMS

IMS

An Integrated Management System (IMS) combines all aspects of an organization’s systems, processes and standards into one smart system. This merger allows a business to streamline its management, save time and increase efficiency by addressing all elements of the management system as a whole.

A successful IMS cuts the unnecessary hassle and work of multiple management systems. For example, instead of holding audits for each standard , you will only need to hold one. An IMS allows these processes to be combined so that they simultaneously cover all Standard -specific requirements.

The Benefits of IMS

Improving Performance

IMS will have a positive impact on specific management system components and outcomes, such as improvements in quality, safety, risk, and productivity.

Eliminating Redundancies

Implementing IMS enables organizations to align the standards to find common or single management system components. These may include policies, objectives, processes, or resources.

Accountability

By integrating multiple management systems at a time and establishing cohesive objectives, processes, and resources, with the alignment of the systems, one can see improvements in accountability.

Establishing Consistency

The organization can create better consistency in its management systems. By creating consistency, the system will become less complex and, therefore, easier to understand. Consistency will create an improved focus on achieving a common set of objectives that are important to the organization

Reducing Bureaucracy

When multiple management standards are implemented and not integrated, dilemmas can arise because of the inability to streamline decisions because of the layers of hierarchy. When the management systems are integrated, the organization can take a systematic approach. The processes can better accommodate changes. When changes and decisions are easily made, this will reduce bureaucracy.

Cost Reduction

IMS allows organizations to conduct integrated audits and assessments, as well as optimize processes and resources. Integrating systems can help reduce the time it takes to do certain activities, eliminate the amount of time interrupted, and therefore reduce costs.

Optimize Processes and Resources

When viewing standard requirements, do not consider them an added load or task for the organization. Resources can be optimized because they become focused on process implementation and adding value rather than additional system maintenance.

Reducing Maintenance

Having an IMS organization can maintain the requirements concurrently, streamlining the process and allowing the organization to focus on improvements rather than maintaining multiple systems when that is unnecessary.

Integrated Audits

With an IMS, organizations can have integrated audits.

Facilitating Decision Making

Eliminating redundancy and creating consistency within the organization allows for a more complete view of functional needs and performance. This integrated approach also allows the organization to analyze functional and departmental barriers and therefore improve communication and decision-making.

The Most Useful ISO Standard ?

ISO 9001. This is one of the most popular ISO standards for creating, implementing, and maintaining a Quality Management System (QMS) for any given company, regardless of its industry, capital, or size.

ISO 45001. This is an international standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S) management systems. It provides a framework that organizations can follow to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve their OH&S management systems..

ISO 14001. requirements give you a framework, along with guidelines, for creating environmental management EMS for any organization.

ISO 27001. This ISO standard is for information security. Organizations that meet these requirements can be certified by an accredited certification body after they’ve been audited successfully.
