CLOUD-BASED COMPLIANCE AND INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FOR CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES

Civil, commercial, and domestic construction companies need proactive operations that prioritise sustainability, safety and flexibility to win new projects and respond to changing industry demands. However, managing compliance across several sites with contractors, employees, visitors, and clients is often challenging.

At Integrated Compliance Solutions, we have worked with numerous construction companies and allied providers such as traffic management and earthworks, and we understand the industry’s complexities.

Digital IMS+, our purpose-built cloud-based system, helps construction companies get and stay compliant with ISO Standards and relevant legislation by developing lean, low-burden processes.

Seamless and scalable compliance with construction industry standards

Done well, compliance with ISO Standards can save construction companies time and money while also helping improve business productivity and efficiency, risk management, employee morale and customer satisfaction.

The ISO Standard requirements overlap in sections, which makes it possible to seamlessly integrate multiple standards into a single management system. This minimises the duplication of documents and streamlines compliance.

ISO certification is often a prerequisite if you are applying for tenders. At times, providers will not even look at you if you are not at least working towards getting certified. This is becoming particularly prevalent for government contracts.

Some of the most commonly implemented ISO Standards include:

• Quality Management System (ISO 9001)
• Occupational Health and Safety Management System (ISO 45001)
• Environmental Management System (ISO 14001)
• Information Security Management System (ISO 27001)

Construction companies usually use paper-based systems that require scanning, uploading, recording and so on. Digital IMS+ cuts out most time-consuming tasks, making certification much more achievable while also reducing the impact on the environment.

In addition, our cloud-based system seamlessly integrates with hundreds of other platforms, further simplifying workflow between existing systems.

With a lean cloud-based integrated management system, construction companies can easily acquire additional ISO certifications, maintain their compliance and future-proof their business.
