Management Systems Services

Do you seek to manage environmental and sustainable development issues more effectively?

"Five Winds was instrumental in helping to guide Denver International Airport's EMS development to a level that met the requirements of the [ISO] standard and yet still allowed us to meet our operational needs. They augmented our staff as we needed and provided excellent facilitation to meet our overall project goals." 

Janell Barrilleaux, Denver International Airport, Director of Environmental Programs.

The primary benefit of an environmental management system (EMS) cited by many organizations is a more integrated and better organized environment function and a tighter connection between environmental objectives, targets and programs. An EMS's integrated approach to environmental issues brings together personnel from a wide variety of responsibilities and departments to assess every aspect of their operations that can interact with the environment, uncovering new insights into how to drive continual improvement beyond compliance.

Our Management Systems Process:

Our approach is to work with you to design and implement management systems that meet your own unique requirements. We have a firm grasp of the realities of managing environmental, health and safety issues, and have helped many organizations achieve ISO 14001 certification. To support this service line, we have created tools, programs and data-collection techniques that support the implementation of management systems and, in many cases, enhance their effectiveness.  

Case Studies:

We helped the City and County of Denver achieve one of the first city-wide management systems encompassing expansive municipal operations. (learn more)
