The introduction of Annex SL aimed to streamline the approach to designing management systems. Before this, organisations managing multiple management systems would have found themselves duplicating their time and resources trying to fill the requirements of each system. Now, integrating environmental management systems like ISO 14001<\/a> and quality management systems like ISO 9001<\/a> is easier than ever.<\/p>\n Quality management systems and environmental management systems have a number of processes in common. These include:<\/p>\n If you already have ISO 9001<\/a> in place, you can add the necessary procedures required for an environmental management system (and vice versa).<\/p>\n If you have neither system in place, you can implement the two as merged systems, combining all documents that pertain to the same processes.<\/p>\n ISO 14001<\/a> follows almost all the processes that are included in ISO 9001<\/a>, however, there are a few additional elements to consider:<\/p>\n Integrating ISO 14001<\/a> and ISO 9001<\/a> can be extremely advantageous to your business.<\/p>\nWhat is the process involved in both systems?<\/h2>\n
