Bibliographic Detail

Overview
The Integrated Management Systems (IMS) series of books provides practical guidance and advice on integrating the systems operating within an organization. It provides a framework into which additional management systems can be incorporated.
IMS: Implementing and Operating Using PAS 99 provides practical guidance and advice on integrating systems, and shows how this might be achieved, using as an example three of the more widely adopted specifications – quality, environment and occupational health and safety.
Every organization will be starting from a different point so this book is written in such a way that readers can pick and choose what they need to help them to achieve their objectives. The aim of this book is to help you to arrive at that system that will then be right for you and your organization, even though it may not be completely suitable for someone else.
The PAS 99 model is used for encompassing the common elements of integrated management systems using a Plan, Do, Check, Act approach in conjunction with the ‘process’ approach that is most commonly used in ISO 9001:2000. The book takes you through the simple framework and includes chapters covering
Planning
Implementation and operation
Performance assessment
Improvement
Management reviews
This new IMS book gives practical examples and advice throughout, which makes the book very user-friendly.
