Implementing ISO 50001 Energy Management

ISO 50001 energy management is not one size fits all. The way you use, manage, and monitor your energy consumption and carbon emissions is specific to the way you operate. We know you’re at a different stage with your energy management to your peers and competitors. That’s why we offer customized packages to help you achieve energy efficiency as swiftly as possible.

An ISO 50001 package can include only the products and services that your business needs. We can help you cut the cost of unnecessary products and services and overcome the particular challenges you face; we’ll help you shape an ISO 50001 Project Plan with the systems you already have in place; and we’ll make sure you put energy efficiency first so you can meet mandatory targets and compete properly in your market place. 

1. Get commitment and support from senior management.
2. Engage the whole business with good internal communication.

1. ISO/IEC 2000-1 Service Management system certification should be hassle-free. You’ll be appointed a BSI Client Manager, a trusted expert with relevant industry experience to your business, who can guide you through the process.

   The steps to ISO/IEC 20000-1 certification:

   1. ISO/IEC 20000-1 gap analysis

   An optional service which takes place before your assessment visits. We’ll take a closer look at your existing information security management system and compare it with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 20000-1 standard. It’s a really cost effective way to check if there are any areas you need to work on before we carry out a formal assessment.

   2. Formal assessment

   A two-stage process. First your BSI Client Manager will review your organization’s readiness for assessment by checking if the necessary ISO/IEC 20000-1 procedures and controls have been developed in your organization. We will share the details of our findings with you so that if we find gaps, you can close them. Next, if all the requirements are in place, we’ll assess the implementation of the procedures and controls within your organization to make sure that they are working effectively as required for certification of ISO/IEC 20000-1. 

   3. Certification and beyond

   When you achieve certification you’ll receive your BSI ISO/IEC 20000-1 certificate which is valid for three years. Your BSI Client Manager will visit you regularly to make sure your system doesn’t just remain compliant, but it continually improves and adds value to your organization.
