Having been called the best ISO 14001 implementation guide on the market by leading experts, Ford & ISO 14001 is designed to enhance efforts in training, implementation, and tracking performance related to an ISO 14001-based Environmental Management System no matter what the company size or industry.

ISO 14001 establishes universally accepted requirements for environmental management that have been adopted and sanctioned by standards bodies in most industrialized nations. The presence of an ISO 14001 certificate informs purchasers that companies have a general policy to address, among other things, prevention of pollution and compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. Purchasers are assured that a company has a management system to achieve its environmental objectives and targets, and a structure to help it improve the management system through corrective and preventive actions and training.
