Energy, Infrastructure and transportation, Government and public sector, Canada EMS auditing for an operator of an electricity transmission system in North America

Summary

Over a five-year period, EEM conducted the internal audits of the ISO 14001 environmental management system for the operator of an electricity transmission system in North America.

Approach and Solution

For these mandates, EEM depends on auditors certified by the Association de vérification environnementale du Québec (AQVE), well-versed in environmental management systems for the energy industry. After several years of providing auditing services to this client, our knowledge of the operator’s approach, processes and systems has allowed us to conduct both general and in-depth audits on specific topics.

Results

External auditors provided this client with the benefit of an independent viewpoint on its environmental management performance. EEM also suggested opportunities for improvements, drawing on best practices observed across our many clients, and helped prepare the client for its registrar audit.
