ISO 9000 is a family of standards for quality management systems. ISO 9000 is maintained by ISO, the International Organisation for Standardisation and is administered by accreditation and certification bodies.
ISO 14001:2015 specifies the requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to enhance its environmental performance. ISO 14001:2015 is intended for use by an organization seeking to manage its environmental responsibilities in a systematic manner that contributes to the environmental pillar of sustainability.

ISO 27001 specifies the management of Information Security. Applicable to all sectors of industry and commerce, it is not confined just to information held on electronic systems, but addresses the security of information in whatever form it is held.
ISO 50001 is the international standard that is designed to help organisations to establish the systems and processes necessary to manage energy efficiency, use and consumption. The overall objective of the standard is to reduce workplace environmental impact and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs.
The integrated management systems we provide are hosted online and updated by us free of charge. In addition, they include all of the inbuilt systems you would require to run a successfully compliant and efficient quality system (including Problem Reporting, Document Management, Certifications and Training). All of our systems are fully protected and hosted within managed data centre servers ensuring ultimate protection and minimal (if any) down time.
We only assist our clients in gaining a UKAS accredited certification, as without UKAS you may as well print the certificate yourself.
Upto Date Information
All of our consultants are fully aware of the pending changes to OHSAS 18001 / ISO 45001. (changes expected in Q4 of 2016) and can happily guide clients through the transition.

I met Emma when I used to do sub-contract work for her father Dr Terry Russell, (who sadly is no longer with us). Since his recent unexpected death she has taken over the role of MD at Quality and Environmental Consultancy Ltd. Her training, background and experience make her well suited to run the consultancy with its worldwide range of clients in a wide variety of industry sectors. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
