The management systems community
BusinessAssurance.com is the world’s first online management systems community. The site is sponsored by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance (LRQA). The sections in this site, and the content in each of those sections, focus on the key business areas that today’s organisations are most interested in. The first section, Climate Change, was launched in May, 2007, followed by Food and Supply Chain . In 2009, Management Systems, Risk Management and an Asia specific section were added. The site also features special event sections, including the November 2009-January 2010 Copenhagen COP 15 section. Each of the six subsections (blogs, podcasts, news, events, resources and standards) offer the audience the opportunity to engage with our section editors on the issues that are driving business strategy in a rapidly changing world.
For a neat summary, see the January 2010 LRQA Business Assurance update.
