ISM - ISO 9001:2000 - ISO 14001 compliance with Amos2 Quality

The international code and standards applicable to management systems in the shipping industry are ISM, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001.

There are many crossing point between the standards, hence, any combination of these systems leads to a more efficient way of managing safety, environmental issues and quality.

• ISM Code focuses on the safe management and operation of ships and pollution prevention.
• ISO 14001 provides the elements of an effective environmental management system.
• ISO 9001 is designed to ensure that customer requirements for quality are met.

These three standards (and several others) may be integrated into one management system. Amos2 Quality manages the crossing point between Standards with the "QA Standard management module” .

A document that meets multiple standards can be linked to each of them without the need of writing it multiple times. Besides printing the Organization’s Quality Manual, it allows printing the documents grouped and catalogued by Standards" . Lets keep in mind that the standards are constructed very similarly and have many common elements. With Amos2 Quality you can implement a management system that addresses safety, quality as well as environmental management without redundancy or duplication of effort.

QA: What about the TMSA? Yes, Amos2 Quality allows you to effectively implement the TMSA.
