Supported by ISOvA and the IMS Toolbox, we support organisations across the UK in implementing Sustainability and Environmental Management Systems that strengthen compliance,

Standards We Support

ISO 14001 – Environmental Management System

ISO 14001 is often the foundation for environmental compliance and sustainability governance. AvISO helps organisations build EMSs that genuinely control environmental aspects, legal obligations and risks, rather than creating paperwork for audit only. Using ISOvA, objectives, compliance registers, audits and corrective actions are kept structured and current, reducing audit risk and supporting demonstrable environmental improvement.

ISO 50001 – Energy Management System

Energy performance fails when monitoring, ownership and targets are unclear. AvISO helps organisations implement ISO 50001 systems that turn energy data into actionable decisions, supporting cost reduction and carbon performance. We structure energy reviews, EnPIs and improvement actions so evidence is clear and audits are predictable. ISOvA keeps energy data, reviews and actions organised yearround.

ISO 20121 – Event Sustainability Management System

ISO 20121 is essential where events, venues or programmes are under scrutiny for environmental and social impact. AvISO helps organisations embed sustainable planning, supplier controls and performance monitoring into event delivery. Evidence, objectives and improvement actions are structured so sustainability claims are credible and repeatable, not event‑specific or ad hoc.

BS 6001 – Responsible Sourcing of Construction Products

Where water use and scarcity present material risk, ISO 14046 provides a framework for understanding and managing water impacts. AvISO supports organisations in defining scope, assessing impacts and integrating water considerations into wider sustainability governance. Evidence, reviews and improvement actions are structured so water foot printing supports informed decision‑making rather than standalone reporting.

BS 8900 – Guidance for Managing Sustainable Development

BS 8900 provides a strategic framework for embedding sustainability into organisational decision‑making. AvISO helps organisations translate guidance into practical governance, objectives and performance monitoring, ensuring sustainability is aligned with business strategy rather than treated as a standalone initiative.

ISO 14046 – Water Footprint

SECR compliance is often resource intensive when data ownership and processes are unclear. AvISO helps organisations organise energy and carbon data, align SECR outputs with existing management systems and prepare reports that meet UK regulatory expectations. Using ISOvA, evidence, calculations and review records are maintained centrally, reducing rework year on year.

ESOS – Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme

ESOS compliance can become resource heavy when data, scope and responsibilities are unclear. AvISO helps organisations manage ESOS assessments efficiently, aligning findings with ISO 50001 and wider energy management systems. Using ISOvA, evidence, calculations and actions are maintained centrally, reducing rework and improving continuity between compliance cycles.

Energy audits

Where organisations require targeted energy insight rather than full certification, AvISO delivers structured energy audits that identify savings opportunities and support regulatory or client requirements. Findings are presented clearly and aligned with wider management systems so recommendations translate into measurable improvement rather than one off reports.

b Corp

B Corp certification is a third-party non-governmental certification that rates companies' social and environmental performance, demonstrating that an organisation meets high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency.
