IS0 14001 Environmental Management System

Intelex's software solutions have been helping organizations pass ISO related audits and achieve full ISO 14001 certification since 1992. We have developed an Environmental Management System comprised of a set of software applications designed to address each component of a 100% ISO 14001 compliant EMS.
