Here are some of Effivity's standout software solutions that made this process easier:
1. The Quality Management System ISO 9001 for the Construction Industry
Effivity's QMS for construction played a pivotal role in this company's journey towards success. It allows organisations to deliver high-quality projects by providing products and services from reliable vendors. The organisation can evaluate and accredit possible vendors and re-evaluate any existing ones.
Users can also resolve project specifications, uncertainties, and ambiguities in the execution process, monitor and manage customer complaints, ensure customer satisfaction, and define the processes and method statements in a secure cloud with 24x7 accessibility.
Additionally, companies can manage multiple construction sites via a single account, allowing for better visibility of processes and compliance. They also have a single login to oversee the implementation and certification of ISO 9001. This makes adhering to compliance regulations much easier and more convenient. Document revisions, drawings, and change requests can also be managed remotely.
2. Environment Management System ISO 14001 for the Construction Industry
Effivity's Environment Management System helps companies in the construction industry prevent project delays and terminations by fulfilling strict industry regulations, permitting requirements, and other enforcements related to the protection of the environment. The EMS module can also determine the project's risks by identifying regulatory and legal obligations.
This software also gives companies a competitive edge over those increasingly focused on "greener" practices. It achieves this by tackling recycling, resource depletion, and waste management challenges. The Waste Management module can identify and evaluate activities that generate waste and provide corresponding measures to mitigate it.
Additionally, Effivity's HSE management modules allow companies to control the introduction of environmental pollutants that may affect local neighborhoods, groundwater, soil, and even on-site employees.
3. Health and Safety Management System ISO 45001 for the Construction Industry
Effivity's health and safety management software allows companies to identify project-specific KPIs and use them to pre-qualify subcontractors for safety. The Internal Audit module enhances the organisation's prequalification abilities, especially when conducting due diligence on vendors and suppliers.
