ecoPortal® – Smarter Management Systems

Have you ever thought of how much time, money and effort has been invested into establishing, implementing and maintaining your QEHS management system and how these investments returned?

And have you ever thought of how visible and effective your management systems are? (Despite these efforts…)

Most of the QEHS management systems we have seen end up being a ‘folder on the shelf’ with minimal engagement from both staff and management. This leaves them as ‘living dead’ buried alive under a paper pile, enabling auditors to tick the box, sometimes with or without comments.

Some believe the reasons behind this are simple; “…it is an art of management system experts, who play with their toy, but they do not let others close to the playground”.

Many times we have said operating a management system is not rocket science. We believe that with the engagement and commitment of management and staff paired with a good interface making things visible, motivating and intuitive, QEHS management systems can achieve larger success than ever.

All you need for a successful and effective management system is engagement, collaboration and culture development rather than bureaucracy. NECS being a proud ecoPortal® adviser has the tool to protect the investment we mentioned and keep your management system pulsing with your everyday activities.
