USSA Global recognise the benefit of performance driven objectives and understand that to achieve these goals, organisations need solid integrated management systems at its foundation.
Benefits of Integration
Integrated Management Systems provide the framework and structure to deliver outcomes such as:
- Continued reliability and availability of plant and equipment;
- Efficient task execution practices;
- Consistency in product/output quality;
- Legal compliance and stringent governance processes;
- Targeted training and personnel development;
- Cost reduction; and
- Improved health, safety and environmental performance.
The value of the implementation of an integrated management system over stand-alone systems, (i.e. Quality Management Systems, Environmental Management Systems or Safety Management System) is the removal of duplication within business processes.
Fit for Purpose
Our dedicated team of Consultants will work with you to develop an Integrated Management System solution which is specifically designed to meet your organisation’s risk profile, key business objectives and relevant client, national and/or international standards.
USSA Global Integrated Management Systems are developed to meet the requirements of:
- AS/NZS 4801 (OHS Management);
- OHSAS 18001 (OHS Management;)
- AS/NZS ISO 31000 (Risk Management);
- ISO 14001 (Environmental Management); and
- ISO 9001 (Quality Management)
Integrated Management Systems vs. Stand Alone Systems
