AVK’S ISO CERTIFICATIONS
AVK has been working with ISO since
1990, when we achieved our first ISO 9001
certification. Since then, ISO documentation
has been integrated into our QEMS (Quality and
Environmental Management System).
The ESG data overview at the end of the report
shows how many of our production companies
that hold the individual certifications. This
overview is based on the description by ISO.org
of each certification.
ISO 9001
ISO 9001 is a management tool ensuring
that helps organisations of all sizes and
sectors to improve their performance, meet
customer expectations and demonstrate their
commitment to quality. Its requirements define
how to establish, implement, maintain, and
continually improve a quality management
system (QMS).
ISO 29001
ISO 29001 defines quality management system
requirements for product and service supply
organisations to the petroleum, petrochemical
and natural gas industries. This document is
written as a supplement to ISO 9001. The
48 | AVK Sustainability report 2022/2023
supplementary requirements and guidance to
ISO 9001 have been developed to manage
supply chain risks and opportunities associated
with the petroleum, petrochemical and natural
gas industries and to provide a framework for
aligning requirements with complementary
standards employed within the industries.
Improper handling of explosives and gasses can
lead to serious consequences for both people
and the environment. For this reason, AVK has
chosen this ISO superstructure (of additional
requirements) in our supply chain for the oil
and gas industry to demonstrate a high-quality
level and proper management of the company’s
processes.
ISO 14001
ISO 14001 is a management tool within
environmental management which acts as the
framework for the environmental performance.
By adhering to this standard, we can ensure
that we are taking proactive measures to
minimise their environmental footprint, comply
with relevant legal requirements, and achieve
their environmental objectives. The framework
encompasses various aspects, from resource
usage and waste management to monitoring
environmental performance and involving
stakeholders in environmental commitments.
ISO 45001
ISO 45001 is an international standard that
specifies requirements for an occupational
health and safety (OH&S) management system.
It provides a framework for organisations to
manage risks and improve OH&S performance.
ISO 45001 utilises the Plan-Do-Check-Act
methodology to systematically manage health
and safety risks. It applies to organisations of
all sizes and can be integrated with other ISO
management system standards.
ISO 50001
ISO 50001 is an international standard
for energy management. The purpose of
ISO 50001 is to specify requirements for
establishing, implementing, maintaining, and
improving an energy management system
(EnMS). The intended outcome is to enable an
organisation to follow a systematic approach
in achieving continual improvement of energy
performance and the EnMS.
