Why it’s important
We believe that effective Management Systems sit at the core of every business and are a core foundation to sustainable success.
The definition of corporate and operational governance standards and the clear communication of the underpinning processes, procedures and forms used in everyday business is vitally important to achieving success.
Effective Management Systems should:
- Articulate the key policies, standards and processes that define how the organisation discharges its legal and morale responsibilities.
- Define how the business goes to work in a way that enables them to deliver for their customers in an effective and efficient way.
- Be designed in a way that encourages employees to proactively engage with the system as they see it as a key supporting tool in helping them do their job.

Unfortunately, this is not routinely the case. The leaders of organisations often don’t appreciate the opportunities that can be realised by investing more in maintaining or improving their management system controls. Sadly, deficiencies in governance systems are only exposed when something goes wrong or when changes in the organisation expose inconsistencies in how people go to work. It is also often the case that company policies, processes, procedures and forms are not easily accessible. They are held in various locations in company digital solutions making it difficult for team members to find what they need to go to work.
