ISO 14001 Project Planning and Evaluation
Next week I'm leaving my cosy ISO 9000 facilitator job and going out offering consultancy on 9000 and 14000. My first venture into 14000 is to bid for a contract to put together a plan and costing for a full ISO 14000 certification/registration. As I see it, it's a bit of a catch 22; I won't really know what is required and what it will cost unless I've gone right through the planning stage, particularly to identify all aspects but, of course, I'm not being offered that. The answer is expected from a couple of weeks work. Decision to go/no go will be made on strength of it.
I expect the full planning stage and full
project up to registration would be 2 months and a further 6 months respectively, give or take some.
I see this 'pre-decision' stage as a mini planning phase and would hope it would end up as a practical framework for the completion of the planning phase.
(If that's not very clear, then I guess that's par for the course - I never did this before. I sent myself on a 14000 auditor course and studied the standard.)
Any comments, advice, issues raised, etc, would be appreciated.
Thanks and rgds,
John C
