This standard PAS 99:2012 Specification of common management system requirements as a framework for integration is classified in these ICS categories:

• 03.100.99 Other standards related to company organization and management

This Publicly Available Specification (PAS) specifies common management system (MS) requirements and is intended to be used as a framework for implementing two or more management system standards (MSSs) in an integrated way. It draws together the common requirements in MSSs based on the new guidance provided by ISO to standards writers (Annex SL). Annex SL and its appendices provide a high level structure and common text which will be utilized in new MSSs and in revisions to existing standards.

Although PAS 99 is primarily intended to be used in combination with MSSs such as BS EN ISO 9001, BS EN ISO 14001, BS ISO/IEC 27001, BS EN ISO 22000, BS ISO/IEC 20000, BS ISO 22301 and BS OHSAS 18001 it can also be used with other national and international MSSs.

It applies to all sizes and types of organization.

It is not intended for organizations that have based their MS upon a single standard except as preparation for the adoption of additional systems or standards.

Compliance with this PAS does not ensure compliance with any other MSSs.
