Management System Consultancy

Tata's Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS) uses a star rating system to assess the competency of its contractors. This system, also known as the Contractor Competency Assessment, evaluates vendors on a scale of 0 to 5 stars. For high-risk jobs, Tata Steel typically only engages 3-star and above rated vendors. CSMS Star Rating Breakdown:

• 5-Star: 850-1000 points
• 4-Star: 750-849 points
• 3-Star: 650-749 points
• 2-Star: 550-649 points
• 1-Star: 450-549 points
• No Star: Less than 450 points 

Assessment Frequency:

• 3-Star Rated Vendors: Assessed annually
• 4 & 5-Star Rated Vendors: Assessed every two years 

Importance of CSMS:

• Contractor Safety: CSMS is a system to ensure the safety of contractors working within Tata Steel's facilities. 
• Risk Management: It helps manage contractor safety risks effectively. 
• Competency Assessment: The star rating system helps assess the competency of contractors. 
• Compliance: It ensures contractors adhere to safety regulations and standards. 

A Green audit merely provides a 'snap-shot' of what is happening at that moment in time, and doesn't help to ensure ongoing management effectiveness and the proper operation of systems and procedures. As a tool which aids decision-making and management control, a green audit is often carried out as part of an overall green management system.

A Green audit should identify opportunities for improvements in an organization's management, and this will often lead to savings in spending. This is particularly common in the case of 'issue' audits, such as the water or waste audit.
The benefits of Green auditing described so far are largely financial, and can be measured directly.

Environmental compliance audit – evaluates a company’s environmental performance and environmental responsibility practices, whether the company has complied with legal requirements and other requirements such as ISO 14001. It is usually the most comprehensive and, perhaps, the most expensive. 
Benefits of an environmental/Green audit: 

• Protect the environment and natural resources that are vital to your universities. 
• Stay compliant with the current environmental and energy laws 
• Address current or potential future problems that may arise 
• Identify potential cost savings from waste minimization and other activities 
• Show your commitment to environmental protection to your customers.

Basically in NAAC we are doing Green Audit part and Green Certification compliance. Green audit is a useful tool to determine how and where the most energy or water resources are being used, the type and volume of waste generated and can then considerations be given on how to implement changes and make savings. It can create health consciousness and promote environmental awareness, values and ethics.https://youtu.be/LaIfjSvlhMo

A Green audit can enable management personnel to become aware of many green issues of which they formerly may have been less well informed. This is especially the case in organizations with multiple facilities or with large manufacturing operations, where the senior managers and directors are often located at a distance, for example, in the head office.
Managers may not have visited many of the sites where there are obvious green risks and, even if they have, they may not have the appropriate knowledge or training to identify that risks are present. The use of green audits can provide management with the confidence that any actual or potential risks have been identified. However, auditing by itself does not improve green performance.
