In the last years several internationally accepted standards such as the ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 series and other function-specific management systems standards have been developed. At the same time, it has become imperative for organisations to continuously improve their overall quality, environmental and safety performance. Therefore, the need to...
An “effective audit” cannot be taken for granted, even though it is performed by trained professionals using proven techniques and in accordance with internationally accepted standards. Recent highly publicized cases in both financial and quality auditing point to the need to further examine the meaning of audit effectiveness, as well as the method...
Integration of function-specific management systems in organizations is rapidly becoming a topic of interest for managers and auditors alike. This is mainly due to the proliferation of management system standards that foster compliance with the stated criteria for quality, environmental, occupational health and safety, social responsibility and oth...

... En el ámbito de la gestión empresarial coexisten dos tendencias complementarias dentro las organizaciones: la implantación de sistemas de gestión a partir de los correspondientes estándares nacionales e internacionales, que facilitan de forma separada el desempeño en cada una de las funciones técnicas asociadas a los diferentes stakeholders (partes interesadas) y el diseño de esquemas de excelencia empresarial que garanticen la satisfacción de todos los grupos de interés implicados (Karapetrovic, 2003); . ...
... En un trabajo sobre la integración de sistemas de gestión, enfocada a la seguridad en la industria nuclear, se identificaron los niveles de la armonización, la cooperación y la fusión (véase la Tabla 1). Los resultados mostraron que una integración plena requiere de la pérdida completa de las identidades de cada sistema de gestión y que la integración no debe restringirse a unos pocos sistemas (Beckmerhagen et al., 2003). ...
... In prior research (Hoy & Foley, 2015), external auditors advocated the IMS benefits on efficiency by avoiding repetition and disruption, enabling the assessment of process interfaces, and offering a unified view of the standalone management systems, allowing a single, one-time assignment of findings to multiple standard requirements.

However, the approach and the purpose of the self-assessment process in nuclear power may be somewhat different than other industries (Beckmerhagen, Berg, Karapetrovic and Willborn, 2003). As with other businesses, competitive edge is certainly one of the drivers. ...
