What are the advantages of the cloud compared to the well-known handbook? The manual was a household name in old versions of standards for management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 55001, ISO 22301, ISO 50001 : quality manual, safety manual, environmental manual, etc. With the advanced variant being the QHSE manual. New versions of the standards came and it is now documented information'.

In the meantime, the paper folders (the manuals) had left the department manager's closet. All procedures, instructions, forms, .. are now on a central disk or on the intranet. After it became clear that everyone can access it -and edit it- the folder was given read access for most people or the files were saved as PDFs.
But IT developments are moving fast: workflow management, on all devices, collaboration across the entire platform, insight into user behaviour, etc. And that immediately available and usable in the cloud. (Just for fun, put this cloud solution as a trial online once every 60 seconds ....). And take a look at the Metaware concept.

What's next? Unleashing artificial intelligence on your management system .. The first developments are already underway.

We list the differences below.

Immediate action ? With our colleagues from Meta-audit.nl , we deliver with one annual subscription of the management system platform (min. Proware + Infoware Bronze) certifiable example documentation (ISO9001/27001/NEN7510) included.

And in a digital quality system, it is all so much easier to find for the 'ordinary user'. A risk profile is also immediately transparent (for those who are allowed to see it).

Nevertheless, the QHSE manager can still find all documents standard-oriented (and immediately sees that there are still old references among them).
