CONSULTING STAGES OF ISO 20121 IN SINGAPORE
- The first stage of implementing ISO 20121 is to conduct a gap analysis.
- This involves reviewing the current event management processes, identifying gaps between the current processes and the requirements of ISO 20121, and developing a plan to address these gaps.
- The gap analysis can be done by an internal team or an external consultant.
- The objective of this stage is to identify what needs to be changed to meet the standard's requirements and to plan for the necessary changes.
- Once the gaps have been identified, the next stage is to develop an event sustainability policy that aligns with the requirements of ISO 20121.
- This policy should be developed in consultation with stakeholders, including suppliers, sponsors, and attendees, and should be communicated to all relevant parties.
- The policy should include objectives, targets, and action plans for improving event sustainability performance.
- After developing the policy, the next stage is to implement it. This involves implementing new processes and procedures to meet the requirements of the standard.
- This could include establishing a sustainability team, creating a sustainability management plan, and integrating sustainability considerations into all aspects of the event planning and execution process.
- The implementation stage requires significant effort and commitment from the event organizer to ensure that the new processes and procedures are fully integrated into the event management system.
- To ensure everyone is aware of their roles and responsibilities in achieving event sustainability, event organizers need to train their staff and stakeholders on the requirements of ISO 20121.
- This could involve providing training on sustainability best practices, organizing workshops and seminars, and communicating sustainability information through newsletters and other channels.
- The goal of this stage is to ensure that everyone involved in the event understands the importance of sustainability and their role in achieving sustainability goals.
- Once the new processes and procedures have been implemented, the next stage is to conduct internal audits to ensure that the event sustainability management system is working effectively and meeting the requirements of ISO 20121.
- Internal audits should be conducted regularly to identify any areas where improvements are needed and to ensure that the system is continuously improving.
- The final stage is conducting a management review of the event sustainability management system. This involves assessing the system's effectiveness and identifying opportunities for improvement.
- The review should include an evaluation of the event sustainability policy, the sustainability management plan, and the results of internal audits.
- The objective of this stage is to ensure that the event sustainability management system is continuously improving and meeting the expectations of stakeholders.
