Maybe it will help if I list the audit finding and tell you what I am trying to do to fix it. Then you can tell me if I am going off in the wrong direction or not.
Finding : ISO 14001, section 4.3.1 requires the organization to identify the environment aspects of it's activities, products, and existing services and taking into account planned or new developments or new modified activities, products and services that may potentially impact the environment. Not in all cases has this requirement been met, for example: potential and/or existing environmental aspects/impacts have not even been considered for the Die maintenance CNC machine and the Laser line now in production.
What I did: I went through the whole plant and wrote down everything we use and put it on an environmental Aspects Spreadsheet. I then had the managers of every department fill in anything I left out. Then I went to Quality and got their input/output on each line, part, ect and added anything environmental to the aspect sheet as well. We have a project sheet here that is used plant wide. It is for improvement projects, new projects, everything. It covers every department. I updated that sheet to include enviromental impact considerations and to list any potential positive or negative impacts from the new project. So now you can't even buy new kinds of cleaning supplies without having to fill in the environmental aspects portion of the project sheet.
Is there anything else I am missing to cover this one?
