Environmental Management Consultancy
Bywater consultants can help organisations encourage the increasingly important sustainability aspects within their businesses.
As experts in their field, our consultants support organisations to reduce their environmental impact, implement and improve an environmental management system, and achieve and maintain ISO 14001 certification.
Projects that we have helped with include:
- gap analysis to identify where change is needed to match the current system to ISO 14001 requirements
- reviewing an organisation’s carbon footprint with the aim of creating a carbon management programme
- support in reviewing compliance obligations
- EMS audits, either as the auditor or supporting the client’s own auditing processes
- independent assessment of organisational impacts on the environment and sustainability strategies
- development of environmental training programmes
How we can help
ISO 14001 gap analysis
An initial step in the certification process is assessing your organisation against the requirements of ISO 14001:2015 in the form an EMS gap analysis.
Following the analysis our EMS consultant will provide you a written report of the findings which can be used as the basis for an ISO 14001 implementation plan.
Auditing against ISO 14001
Pre-assessment audits, internal audits and supplier audits can assist in maintaining and continually improving your EMS.
We understand the importance of an objective viewpoint when auditing and can undertake the full audit on your behalf or provide support during the audit process.
Developing EMS documentation
ISO 14001 outlines the required documentation for an EMS including a documented scope, environmental policy and compliance obligations.
Our environmental management consultants can advise, provide support, create and update your EMS documentation to ensure it complies the requirements of ISO 14001 and assists in the continual improvement of your EMS.
Environmental management training programmes
Our consultants work with organisations to create a programme of training to develop the inhouse skills they need to manage their environmental challenges and achieve ISO certification.
Many of our consultants are our tutors, providing the benefit of their extensive practical experience across a variety of industry sectors.
Our ISO 14001 courses include our IEMA, CQI & IRCA ISO 14001 Lead Auditor and ISO 14001 Internal Auditor training courses. We also offer IEMA training courses which focus on environmental sustainability and environmental issues.
GHG & carbon reduction
Reducing GHG and carbon emissions is key in the fight against climate change and often brings benefits to organisations in terms of cost-savings, enhanced efficiency and improved stakeholder relations.
Our consultants can review your carbon footprint and support you to develop an effective carbon management programme tailored to your organisation’s aims.
Environmental sustainability
There are growing pressures on organisations to reduce their long-term impact on the environment. Organisations are expected to mitigate climate change, protect biodiversity, minimise supply chain impacts and achieve net zero.
Our environmental consultants can review your organisation’s direct and indirect impacts on the environment and develop a sustainability strategy.
EMS compliance obligations
Organisations are required to evaluate fulfilment of their compliance obligations, including legal requirements, and understand their compliance status.
As experts in their field, our sustainability consultants can provide environmental compliance support including reviewing your compliance obligations and ensuring you are aware of changes to relevant legislation.
