 What do we mean by an
integrated management system?
• 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.
• An integrated management system (IMS) is a
management system which integrates all
components of a business into one coherent
system so as to enable the achievement of its
purpose and mission.

Why should management systems
be integrated?
• Be consistent within the organization.
• Improve internal and external communication.
• Avoid duplication and gain cost savings.
• Reduce risks.
• Expose conflicting objectives.
• Identify and rationalise conflicting responsibilities and
relationships.
• Gain a structured balance of authority/power.
• Focus organization onto business goals.
• Create a formalisation of informal systems.
• Harmonise and optimise practices.
6

• Identify and facilitate staff training and development.

 MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• System to establish policy and objectives and to achieve those
objectives.

• Six common elements – Source: ISO Guide 72

• Policy

• Planning
Source: ISO
9000:2005
• Implementation and Operation

• Performance Assessment

• Improvement

• Management Review

• There are no national or international standards for integrated management

systems. 7
What does a system comprise of
?
• The controlling factors through which the
business process is realized.
Remember that:
– A system is a collection of sub-systems.
– A subsystem is a collection of processes.
– A process is a collection of tasks.
– An activity is the smallest parcel of work to
be carried out by a person or group of
people.
– A procedure is just a way of doing things. 8
 Which Management Systems
standards can be integrated?
• Typically:
• ISO 9001 (Quality Management)
• ISO 14001 (Environmental Management)
• OHSAS 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety)
• ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security)
• ISO 22000 (Food Safety)
• ISO/IEC 20000 (IT Service Management)

QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A management system to direct and control an organization
with regard to quality ISO 9000:2005

The ISO 9000 family of standards was revised in December 2015, and comprises of:
ISO 9000 Quality Management Systems fundamentals and vocabulary installation and
servicing
ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems requirements
ISO 9004 Quality Management Systems guidelines for performance improvement
ISO 19011Guidelines on Quality and Environment Management Systems Auditing

10
Environmental Management
• Environmental management is seen today as an
increasingly important aspect of the business process
• There are three types of Environmental Management
System/ Schemes:
• ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard
• EMAS - EU Eco-management and Audit Scheme
• BS 8555 STEMS – Environmental Management Systems –
Guide to phased implementation of an EMS including the
use of environmental performance evaluation.

 A word of caution on IMS
• Before looking at integrated management, you
should consider the management structures
and styles within which it must be embedded.
• You need, therefore, to assess how effectively
and efficiently the organization is currently
managed in a general sense.
• There are many factors which affect how it
operates.

16
Considerations for the Integrated
Management Process
• The extent to which integration should occur.
• The political and cultural situation within the company.
• The levels of competence necessary.
• Legal and other regulatory requirements.
• Clear objectives for the integration project.

17
Publicly Available Specification (PAS)
99
• PAS 99 is a Publicly Available Specification of common
requirements for management systems that can be used as a
framework for an integrated management system.
• Organizations with more than one management system can
view PAS 99 as an aid to achieving a single holistic
management system.
• PAS 99 takes account of the six common requirements for
management systems standards outlined in ISO Guide 72;
guidance document. These 6 common requirements are:
• Policy
• Planning
• Implementation and Operation
• Performance Assessment
• Improvement
• Management Review 18
 Breaking down the structure – a
Decomposition Strategy
Functional decomposition breaks down activities according to
what is done, rather than how it is done, and is probably the most
common strategy.
Role decomposition breaks down things according to who does
what, it can be an easy and useful starting point, but is likely to
constrain improvements if it is maintained.
Subsystems decomposition divides systems first by major
subsystem. This is useful when these subsystems are largely
independent of one another.
Lifecycle decomposition breaks down a system first by the
phases of activity. Again, this is most useful when these phases
are clearly defined and relatively independent. 19
Understanding your business

• Decide on the viewpoint you intend to

take in attempting to describe your
business process. Engineers may have
a particular viewpoint, sales staff may
think slightly differently, administrators
with differing criteria.
• Multi-disciplinary cross-functional
teams may provide the overall
viewpoint which you need 20
Understanding Management Systems
• A QMS does not in itself decide the technical or
commercial specification of a product, but establishes
disciplines that assist in the consistent attainment of quality
requirements.
• An environmental management system (EMS) requires in
the main that an organization identifies and registers its
environmental effects, while promoting continual
environmental improvement, but does not need to
comment on overall environmental performance.

21
Overview of ISO 9001 ,
ISO 14001& ISO 45001
 ISO 9001 , ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 in brief
• ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 are among ISO's most well known
standards ever.

• They are implemented by more than a million organizations in some

193 countries.

• ISO 9001 helps organizations to implement quality management.

• ISO 14001 helps organizations to implement environmental

management.

• ISO 45001 helps organizations to implement Occupational Health and

Safety Management
 Quality management
• ISO 9001 is for quality management.
• Quality refers to all those features of a product (or
service) which are required by the customer.
• Quality management means what the organization
does to
• ensure that its products or services satisfy the
customer's quality requirements and
• comply with any regulations applicable to those
products or services.
 Quality management (cont.)

• Quality management also means

what the organization does to
• enhance customer satisfaction, and
• achieve continual improvement of
its performance.
 Environnemental management
• ISO 14001 is for environmental management.
This means what the organization does to:
• minimize harmful effects on the environment
caused by its activities,
• to conform to applicable regulatory
requirements, and to
• achieve continual improvement of its
environmental performance.
 Occupational Health & Safety
Management
• ISO 45001 is for Occupational Health & safety
management. This means what the organization does to
ensure:
• safety, health, welfare and wellbeing of people when
they are at work,
• to conform to applicable regulatory requirements, and to
• safe and secure environment, free from hazards.
• ensure that people with disabilities or impairments are not
unreasonably prevented from taking job opportunities and
that work processes are adapted to help people with specific
conditions work safely. .
 Generic standards
ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 45001are generic
standards.
Generic means that the same standards can be
applied:
• to any organization, large or small, whatever
its product or service,
• in any sector of activity, and
• whether it is a business enterprise, a public
administration, or a government department.
 Generic standards (cont.)
Generic also signifies that
• no matter what the organization's scope of activity
• if it wants to establish a quality management
system, ISO 9001 gives the essential features
• or if it wants to establish an environmental
management system, ISO 14001 gives the
essential features.
• Of if it wants to establish an occupational health and
safety management system, ISO 45001gives the
essential features for achieving that
 Management systems
• Management system means what the organization
does to manage its processes, or activities in order
that
• its products or services meet the organization’s
objectives, such as
• satisfying the customer's quality requirements,
• complying to regulations, or
• meeting environmental objectives
 Management systems

• To be really efficient and effective, the

organization can manage its way of doing things
by systemizing it.
• Nothing important is left out.
• Everyone is clear about who is responsible
for doing what, when, how, why and where.
• Management system standards provide the
organization with an international, state-of-the-
art model to follow.
Management systems (cont.)

• Large organizations, or ones with complicated

processes, could not function well without
management systems.
• Companies in such fields as aerospace,
automobiles, defence, or health care devices
have been operating management systems for
years.
• The ISO 9001,ISO 14001 & ISO 45001
management system standards now make
these successful practices available for all
organizations.
 Processes, not products
• Both ISO 9001,ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 concern
the way an organization goes about its work.
• They are not product standards.
• They are not service standards.
• They are process standards.
• They can be used by product manufacturers and
service providers.
 Processes, not products (cont.)
• Processes affect final products or services.
• ISO 9001 gives the requirements for what the organization
must do to manage processes affecting quality of its
products and services.
• ISO 14001 gives the requirements for what the organization
must do to manage processes affecting the impact of its
activities on the environment.
• ISO 45001 gives the requirements for what the organization
must do to manage processes affecting safety, health,
welfare and wellbeing of people when they are at work
 Certification and registration
• Certification is known in some countries as
registration.
• It means that an independent, external body
has audited an organization's management
system and verified that it conforms to the
requirements specified in the standard (ISO
9001, ISO 14001 or ISO 45001).
• ISO does not carry out certification and
does not issue or approve certificates,
 Accreditation
• Accreditation is like certification of the certification body.
• It means the formal approval by a specialized body - an
accreditation body - that a certification body is competent to
carry out ISO 9001:2015 ,ISO 14001:2015 or ISO
45001:2018 certification in specified business sectors.
• Certificates issued by accredited certification bodies - and
known as accredited certificates - may be perceived on
the market as having increased credibility.
• ISO does not carry out or approve accreditations.
 Certification not a requirement

• Certification is not a requirement of ISO

9001 or ISO 14001.
• The organization can implement and benefit
from an ISO 9001 , ISO 14001 or ISO 45001
system without having it certified.
• The organization can implement them for the
internal benefits without spending money
on a certification programme.
Certification is a business decision!
• Certification is a decision to be taken for
business reasons:
• if it is a contractual, regulatory, or market
requirement,
• If it meets customer preferences
• it is part of a risk management programme, or
• if it will motivate staff by setting a clear goal.
 ISO does not certify
• ISO does not carry out ISO 9001 ,ISO 14001 or
ISO 45001 certification.
• ISO does not issue certificates.
• ISO does not accredit, approve or control the
certification bodies.
• ISO develops standards and guides to
encourage good practice in accréditation and
certification.
