Seller's Description:
Very good. [8], 291, [9] pages. Glossary. Acronyms. Index. Minor spillage soiling at foredge. The author was the Director of Environmental Quality Office at the Ford Motor Company. From 1995 to 1998 the Environmental Quality Office led Ford's initiative to become the first automotive company to have all of is manufacturing plants certified to the ISO 14001 environmental management standard. He also led the Rouge Heritage 2000 Initiative. In 2000, the 600-acre, $2 billion Ford Rouge Center near Dearborn, Michigan, underwent major redevelopment, laying the groundwork for sustainable manufacturing at one of the world's largest and oldest industrial icons. Numerous pilots of advanced environmental concepts were constructed and a new assembly plant with the nation's largest ecologically inspired living roof was planted on the massive industrial building. About 454, 000 square feet of assembly plant roofing is covered with sedum and other succulent plants. The roof reduces stormwater runoff by holding an inch of rainfall. Also, the living plants absorb carbon dioxide as part of photosynthesis, so oxygen is emitted and greenhouse gases are reduced. In 2004, the 10.4 acre Ford Truck Plant green roof was recognized in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest living roof and helped jump-start the early North American green roof industry. Redevelopment of the 1917 complex formed the foundation for the company's vision of balancing lean manufacturing with environmental sensitivity. Ford Motor Company has saved millions of dollars since becoming the first automaker to certify all of its manufacturing facilities worldwide to the ISO 14001 international standard on Environmental Management Systems in 1998. Ford & ISO 14001 chronicles the successful strategy developed by the automaker to achieve compliance in more than 140 manufacturing sites worldwide, while maintaining a focus on bottom-line lessons that can be applied to companies of any size. Includes dozens of sample documents. 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. It includes an entire sample EMS manual and dozens of system documents that users are free to adapt in their own company, potentially saving thousands of dollars and countless hours of development time. 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.
