Using separate management systems within the same organisation is inefficient. By Integrating your management systems, your organisation can minimise duplication, align your objectives and probably reduce costs as well.
The aim of an IMS is to streamline processes and avoid duplication of documents and work. In addition it is not necessary for an organisation to have all of the standards incorporated into their business.
For example:
Quality Management + Environmental
Qaulity Management + Health & Safety
Environmental + Health & Safety
Quality + Environmental + Health & Safety
It is important to note that it is still necessary for the system to conform to the requirements of the individual standards. The Third party assessment must still be carried out for each discipline.
Whatever your needs we at Systems Assured Limited can either
develop and build an integrated management system that will satisfy any national or international management systems standard.
- or plan and implement a programme of work needed to integrate current management systems while ensuring conformity to the requirements of the appropriate standards.

Why should management systems be integrated?
- reduce duplication and therefore costs
- reduce risks and increase profitability
- balance conflicting objectives
- eliminate conflicting responsibilities and relationships
- diffuse the power system
- turn the focus onto business goals
- formalise informal systems
- harmonise and optimise practices
- create consistency
- improve communication
- facilitate training and development
