Integrated Management System
An Integrated Management System (IMS) combines multiple management systems into one cohesive framework, streamlining processes, reducing duplication, and enhancing overall efficiency. IMS typically integrates standards like ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety), and others, enabling organizations to achieve holistic operational excellence.
GlobalCert leverages AI-powered auditing to simplify the integration process. Our platform analyzes documentation from various systems, identifies gaps, and ensures compliance across multiple standards, making IMS implementation seamless and efficient.
