Hi All
Can someone summarise for me what a business needs to do in order to sucessfully achieve this accreditation please?
I'm just after bullet points at the moment for a meeting I have later this week.
Thanks
DHM

Quite hard to summarise as standards are quite in depth but in general:
- Complete a gap analysis of where you are now where you need to be to achieve the standards.
- Leadership commitment - absolutley key and vital.
- Management reviews with Leadership atleast annually.
- Lifecycle analysis of products and services you use.
- Control of outsourcing (contractors, services).
- Look at external and internal issues that affect the organisation (i.e. PESTLE analysis, climate change)
- Context of organisation - what are the needs and expectations of interested parties.
- Management system processes and procedures.
- Policy commitments.
- Communications, awareness and competencies.
- Environmental impact assessments.
- Understand compliance obligations (Legal, customer requirements and what needs/expectations of interested parties then fall into a compliance obligations). Understanding where you are with compliance obligations i.e. RAG status.
- Carrying out internal audits of compliance obligations and ensuring that you audit each of the standards in a three year period.
These are all of the top of my head but there are great summary documents available on the internet.
