Integrated Management System - Quality, Environment, Safety (IMS-QES) combines all related components of a business into one system for easier management and operations Quality (QMS/ISO 9001), Environmental (EMS/ISO 14001), and Health & Safety (OHSAS 18001). IMS-QES has been generally used to increase operational performance in manufacturing systems. However, the economic impact of standard approach of IMS-QES remains difficult due to the lack of alignment between IMS-QES objectives and strategic management of the company (policy of IMS-QES) and also the inadequacy between the improvement processes and the cost of losses. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to overcome this limitation. The Framework proposed approach called IM-VCF integrates concepts from IMS-QES, Value Stream Mapping and Cost Deployment tool. It is structured in ten steps. It allows a company to assure proper alignment between IMS-QES policy and business operations and identify the categories of losses. IM-VCF allows analysing critical issues and estimating the potential savings, in terms of cost. A case study taken from the application of the IM-VSF within certified QSE chemical fertiliser port is presented.
