Environmental Management - Validity vs. Greenwashing
The concept of "Environmental Management Systems" (EMS) is getting plenty of positive press these days, but most executives surveyed still don't know what Environmental Management really is and/or how to get it started for their organizations. Independent "Green" activities are good, but at what point is your company able to make a valid statement that it is Environmentally Managed? ISO 14001 is the internationally accepted standard for Environmental Management and by following the basic ISO structure it does accomplish validity and does command industry respect.
Environmental Management - Definition
Simply stated, an EMS is a management tool designed to provide a data-driven understanding of the physical "inputs" and "outputs" of a facility.
Companies who take the steps to develop an EMS typically decide to do it for two main business reasons:
-
Save Money - on resources, energy, raw materials, waste, etc
-
Gain a marketing advantage - appeal to the increasing number of customers who are preferentially selecting Environmentally Managed suppliers.
ISOmatrix has considerable experience with EMS and has simplified the process of development and implementation. Call us.
