IMS - Integrated Management System Consulting
Unify Standards. Simplify Compliance. Strengthen Performance.
At Solving Safety On Site (SSOS), we help businesses streamline multiple ISO standards into one efficient Integrated Management System (IMS). By consolidating your Quality, Safety, and Environmental systems, your business can streamline ISO processes, reduce audit costs, and simplify compliance management while improving operational effectiveness.
Whether you’re managing ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, or other standards, our expert team offers comprehensive IMS consulting to guide you through designing and implementing a fully integrated system tailored to your organisation’s goals - helping you operate smarter, faster, and more sustainably.
Our IMS implementation approach ensures a unified management system that delivers measurable results and supports cost-effective ISO certification.



What is an Integrated Management System (IMS)?
An Integrated Management System (IMS) combines multiple ISO standards, such as ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety), into a single cohesive framework.
Rather than managing separate compliance systems, businesses benefit from integrated compliance solutions that enhance coordination and reduce duplication. A holistic management system like IMS enables businesses to drive performance, align strategy with operations, and support seamless ISO integration across departments.
This approach also prepares organisations for combined ISO certification, reducing administrative overhead and improving consistency in audits and training.
Why Implement an Integrated Management System?
Integrating management systems is a proactive step toward greater efficiency and sustainable business growth. An IMS helps align your strategic objectives with compliance needs and operational performance.

Integrated Management Systems in Australia
In Australia, Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) are a legal requirement for any high-risk work activity. Businesses that fail to comply risk serious penalties, workplace injuries, and reputational damage.
An integrated ISO certification strategy ensures you stay compliant with evolving regulations while improving transparency and collaboration.
Whether you’re aiming to boost sustainability, improve internal coordination, or meet industry demands, integrating your systems is a smart, future-ready move. With expert support from SSOS, IMS implementation becomes not only achievable but highly effective.
Frequently asked questions
Common standards include ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and ISO 45001 (Health and Safety). Integration depends on your business needs and compliance goals.
Yes. Integrating systems allows for combined audits, reduced documentation, and clearer processes, making both initial and ongoing certification simpler and more cost-effective.
You can absolutely integrate your current systems. We assess your existing frameworks and adapt them into one cohesive IMS, preserving what's working and improving what’s not.
Initially, there will be some planning and training. But over time, an IMS reduces the overall workload by simplifying processes and reducing duplication—making your team’s job easier.
This varies depending on the size of your business and the complexity of your current systems. Most organisations can develop and implement an IMS within 4 to 8 months with our structured approach.
Maintenance involves regular internal audits, management reviews, ongoing training, and periodic updates. We offer ongoing support to help you stay compliant and continually improve your system.
