SERVICES
We build environmental management systems from the ground up and support their implementation within your business. Our bespoke solutions focus on practicality, using innovative and creative approaches.
It might seem overwhelming to build an environmental management system from scratch, but we are experts at making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. From understanding the compliance obligations that apply to your business to preparing documentation and training your employees, we’ve got you covered.
Environmental Management Systems
Businesses of all shapes and sizes can have an impact on the world around us. It’s not just the multinational fast-food chains and giant oil companies that must take responsibility to minimise their environmental impacts. We all need to play our part.
Planning and implementing an environmental management system (EMS) within your organisation is one of the best ways to ensure your business is as environmentally friendly as possible. At Constantia Consulting, we can help you implement an EMS that will help control your energy consumption, reduce pollution risks, and streamline your waste handling, while keeping your business running smoothly.
- By working with Constantia Consulting, you can:
- Reduce your organisation’s environmental impact
- Save money by lowering your energy consumption
- Reduce waste and how you handle and dispose of waste
- Ensure your organisation complies with the most recent environmental standards and legislation
The most widely accepted international standard for environmental management systems is ISO 14001. It has been adopted by the New Zealand Standards Authority and is used all over the world. It is a highly robust framework that can be applied to a wide range of business sectors, scopes and activities. It is the standard and the starting point for all organisations looking to improve their environmental performance.
Whether you’re a construction company, a small-scale coffee roaster or a large-scale clothing manufacturer, you can make a difference to the planet by certifying your company under this standard. Constantia Consulting are experts at helping you get there.
Carbon management systems
It’s becoming more and more the norm that businesses review their carbon emissions and have objectives in place to reducing their outputs. Increasingly, businesses are needing to provide information to their customers and stakeholders on their carbon emissions and energy usage. This is being driven by an increasingly savvy customer base, who only want to buy from sustainable and socially responsible companies.
Put simply, a carbon management system involves measuring and then reducing the amount of carbon, or greenhouse gas emissions your business’s operations put into the environment. It also means implementing processes to manage, monitor, and mitigate these aspects.
Without a plan, your organisation may fall behind, costing your business more in the long run. Now is the time to act.
By working with Constantia Consulting, you can:
- Save costs, as you find more cost-effective and ‘greener’ alternatives for your energy
- Reduce regulatory risk and ensure you are future-proofed
- Respond to the demands of your stakeholders
- Improve your competitiveness and promote innovation
Audit Readiness
We specialise in assisting organisations in preparing their environmental and carbon management systems ready for audit. We can review your systems in preparation for your ISO 14001 or ISO 14064 audit, as well as other environmental impact assessments that your business might require, such as support consent applications.
Our high-quality, well-researched environmental impact assessments are a crucial planning tool for any project. We can prepare environmental impact assessments for current or anticipated projects and activities at a range of local and regional scales.
