3. WHAT IS ISO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ?
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an
independent, non-governmental international organization
with a membership of 164 national standards bodies that
develops and publishes International Standards that support
innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
Members of ISO are the foremost standards organizations in
their countries and there is only one member per country.
Each member represents ISO in its country. For Nigeria
Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) is that body at ISO.
A management system is the way in which an organization
manages the inter-related parts of its business in order to
achieve its objectives. These objectives can relate to a
number of different topics, including product or service
quality, operational efficiency, environmental performance,
health and safety in the workplace and many more.
A series of Standards have been developed by ISO to aid this
and they are called Management Systems Standards.

4. APPLICABILITY OF MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM IN ORGANISATION
• For some organizations, especially smaller ones, the
Management System may simply mean having strong
leadership from the business owner, providing a clear
definition of what is expected from each individual
employee and how they contribute to the
organization’s overall objectives, without the need for
extensive documentation. More complex businesses
operating, for example, in highly regulated sectors,
may need extensive documentation and controls in
order to fulfil their legal obligations and meet their
organizational objectives.
• MSS are the result of consensus among international
experts with expertise in global management,
leadership strategies, and efficient and effective
processes and practices. MSS standards can be
implemented by any organization, large or small
5. ISO Management System Standards
and Benefits
• ISO management system standards (MSS) help organizations improve
performance by specifying repeatable steps that organizations consciously
implement to achieve their goals and objectives, and to create an
organizational culture that reflexively engages in a continuous cycle of self-
evaluation, correction and improvement of operations and processes
through heightened employee awareness and management leadership and
commitment.
Other benefits of an effective management system to your organization include:
• More efficient use of resources and improved financial performance,
• Improved risk management and protection of people and the environment,
and
• Increased capability to deliver consistent and improved services and
products, thereby increasing value to customers and all other stakeholders.
6. MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AUDIT
• An audit is a systematic Systematic, independent and documented
process for obtaining audit evidence and evaluating it objectively to
determine the extent to which audit criteria are fulfilled
• Audits are a vital part of the management system approach as they
enable the company or organization to check how far their
achievements meet their objectives and show conformity to the
standard.
• In order to help the auditing related to management system standards,
ISO has released ISO 19011 (Guidelines for auditing management
systems) providing specific guidance on internal and external
management system audits.
7. SECTOR CATEGORIZATION OF ISO MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM STANDARDS

8. ISO Management Systems
Certification
• Certification to management system standards is not a
mandatory requirement but rather a voluntary. You can
benefit from implementing the management standards
without being certified to them. However, if you are
looking to get certified to one or more of our
management system standards, then you need to get in
touch with an accredited external certification body
which SONMSC
ISO does not perform certification.
Certification is not the only way to show conformity to
standards (especially to the outside world)
