HA!!! You and me both by the same time period. Bet BSI are rubbing thier hands. I enquired if we could just beef up our 14001 as the systems are so very similar and 'they are coming back to me', I resent having to re-write our procdures etc. I have also enquired if they could be audited at the same time as from looking at our system I feel 2 audits would be a waste of money as many of the sections are repeated and could be just amended to include 16000. Bet no money comes our way!!!!!!!!

Hi there, BSi can undertake a combined audit of all your systems. We have recently had a 14001, 9001 and 18001 audit all in 3 days (3 auditors + 3 days = 9 audit days). You are right, the systems are so very similar and its a waste of everyone's time to revisit the same procedures but just looking at different standards. The only problem you may come up against is whether BSi can provide you with a qualified 'integrated' auditor in your alloted timescale. We've had the devils own job finding an audit that can audit both 14001 and 18001 at the same time. If you've already been certified against either 14001 or 18001 you will find 16001 a 'walk in the park'!
