a culture of continuous improvement
For utilities provider, Berliner Wasserbetriebe, utilizing AMCS to assess its environmental impacts makes performance sustainability second nature. Using the software, regular assessment can highlight both minor and significant impacts leading to a low, medium or high need for action. At the end of the assessment, the software automatically delivers a summary to upper management, which feeds into a process of continuous improvement and often provides the basis for strategic decisions. With effective tools for environmental management, AMCS helps implement an efficient EHS management strategy, strengthening internal communication and involving all stakeholders in the process for a more successful outcome.
