Integrated Management Systems

There is an increasing trend for organisations to combine all its management systems into one integrated system. ISO 27001 has been produced to harmonize with other standards and specifications such as ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental) and OHSAS 18001 (Health & Safety).
By reducing duplication and providing a centralised, document control system, integrated systems not only help organisations internally, but may also offer cost benefits for the third-party certification audit.
