Single Management System Engine
The dynamics of the management system is based on the Risk, Plan, Do, Check Act. Controls are derived from the risk associated with the operations as well the internal and external issues which determine the operational and Organizational plans respectively. The cycle is repeated to maintain conformity and compliance for achieving the intended or ‘stretched’ goals of the organization.
Improve Internal & External Communication
The cycle is driven when an objective is not met. A corrective action method is triggered to improve the plan to generate enhanced controls for the shortcomings; in order to avoid any reoccurrence of the issue or the conditions that led to the deviation.
The point is, standalone discipline risks cannot exist – as operational activities and issues are interconnected. The risk of ‘what can go wrong’ can be triggered by the events of another activity – for example maintenance and production – hence a holistic integrated approach is necessary to add value to the organization’s performance.
