EnMS-Doc Associates together with its Singapore partner Antris Management Solutions hosted a 3-day EnMS Workshop 23-25 April in Singapore.

The workshop focussing on energy management was very timely for the reason in the same week Singapore's New Energy Conservation Act (ECA) came in force on 22 April, just the day before the workshop.

Having a guest presenter, Mr. Winston Tan, Assistant Manager, Energy Efficiency & Conservation Department, National Environment Agency (NEA), the overview of the new Energy Conservation Act was presented. Mr. Tan stressed the point that the prime objective of the Energy Conservation Act has been introduced to assist industries in improving the energy efficiency of their operation and strengthen their business position globally, and elaborated NEA’s position to promote ISO 50001 standard that would play an important role in strengthening the implementation of the act.

Workshop participants were able to have clear understanding of the act, and we were proud to report to NEA that our workshop had provided all the key practical energy management elements that they can now smoothly adapt the requirements of the act with the ISO 50001 class EnMS operational aspects. All participants agreed that the workshop built confidence level to lead their organisation business unit to ISO 50001 Class EnMS operation not only from the knowledge gained but also by the actual experience gained through the practical approach of the workshop.

Throughout the workshop, the sessions were under the framework of “wiki50001.com” compliments of the solution software provider TEAM UK. One of the highlights was in the audit exercise when participants experienced wiki50001 to be an intelligent friend of auditees, compiling all the elements and documentation compatible to ISO 50001 guideline ensuring high level assessment result from the audit activities.

Therefore, the requirements are positive thinking and practical. Any top management will recognise that by performing to the ISO 50001 requirement, it ensures to take superior position in developing sustainability business. In order to take advantage of the requirement for the betterment of business operation and to maintain the established framework, one must at least establish a foundation of documentation. Once going through each item of requirements, there exist responding documents required to support complying with each item.
We have created an analysis table "Documents responding to ISO 50001 requirements" demonstrating applicable documents for requirement item.
Those of you who are interested please download

Once you go through the table you will immediately come to realise that once you have established 12 key management documents as shown below.
This is the reasoning behind EnMS-Doc developed the M333 Set Menu #101"all 12 key management documents in a set" as our feature offering.
The greatest thing about ISO 50001 is once the compatible management documents are in line, they will convert your existing documents related to EnMS operation such as procedural documents, daily journals and data into ISO 50001 documents.

We still see a lot of attentions being placed on certification when ISO 50001, International Standard for Energy Management System (EnMS) is talked about.
