What is an Integrated Management System?

An integrated management system is a single system designed to manage multiple aspects of an organisation’s operations in line with multiple standards, such as those for quality, environmental, health and safety & information security management.

Most businesses already have systems — either formal or informal — for dealing with these issues. However, what many managers don’t realise is the degree to which they are duplicating processes or creating unnecessary extra work for their staff. Ultimately, safety, environmental management and quality control have many common points, and all work towards the goal of making your organisation more effective and efficient. 

In practice, an Integrated Management System involves merging existing formal systems and implementing specific best practices organisation-wide. 

Benefits of Integration 

In an Integrated Management System, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Successfully integrating your management systems can have a number of very tangible benefits for your organisation, including:

• Avoiding duplication of effort
• Making more effective use of senior management time
• Using resources to implement and manage systems in a more efficient manner
• Achieving more cost efficient certification
• Reducing audit fatigue
