After only eight months of trading United Asphalt has achieved third party accreditation for Quailty, Environmental and Health & Safety Management, to ISO9001, ISO14001 and OHSAS18001 respectively.

In addition to this the business has achieved National Highways Sector 14 scheme approval for Quality Management in Highway Works.

Thanks to IM&SS for their help in achieving this.

Management Systems

Organisations choose to implement management systems for a variety of reasons. These range from the desire or need to

• Define company processes and methodologies, to capture best practice, improve training and business performance, to
• Formalise statutory or regulatory compliance practices, to reduce business risk or comply with permits and permissions, to
• Gain commercial advantage or prove the integrity of your products and services or improve your company reputation from accredited Quality; Safety or Environmental management systems - either standalone or integrated

The important thing is

• Systems should be appropriate to the organisations size, complexity and most important, its needs
• It should be written in a way that it remains compliant, but at the same time, is both practical and easy for the staff to follow, and be to a standard that you as Owners and Directors of the business feel comfortable will fit with your company’s culture and aims
• The aim of the management system should be to make you run your business more efficiently
• Accredited systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and BS OHSAS 18001 should add value to your business, not create a burden that you have to bear

IM&SS has many years of experience in developing and implementing management systems and specialise in integrated them. This is where two or more of the above subject areas are combined into one system.

We design and help you implement a management system that allows all disciplines to be addressed, either from the start, or by bolting on critical elements as you require them. This can include amalgamating existing systems where they already exist rather than re-inventing the wheel.

We are different due to our range of systems knowledge and experience; we have implemented systems as both business managers and consultants, and in both cases obtained the required accreditations to international standards.

To find out more and to discuss your specific requirements give us a call or see below for a brief summary of the process.

Do clients keep asking for ISO this and BES that…………

Are you tendering for new projects or completing contractor or supplier questionnaires to become an approved supplier and the letters ISO or BES probably stare out at you every time.

The lucky ones of you will tick ‘yes’ and include a copy of your certificate. Well done! The rest of you will leave it blank and be thinking to yourself, I know this is something we really should address some time soon.

It’s easier than you think to get started and make a difference to your business. Yes it depends on your business. But generally it’s 5 or 6 easy steps to get your business on the road to a management system and achieving the required ISO accreditation or standard.

Step 1 - Give us a call and we will meet you for an informal discussion

Step 2 - Gap Analysis - We carry out a review of your workplace activities, processes

  and management structure and identify any holes

Step 3 - Plan & Produce - We agree an action plan, develop your management system

  structure and produce the documentation

Step 4 - Implement - We train your staff and they start using it

Step 5 - Audit & Review - We audit the system to ensure successful implementation                  and agree any further actions

Step 6 - Certification - We arrange your external audit which will lead to certification.

The level of involvement by you and your teams can vary depending on your resource availability, their knowledge and experience, and your desired timescale. We will work in partnership with you, but this process must be a two way street for you to maximise the benefits.
