ISO 46001 questions

What is ISO 46001?

ISO 46001:2019 is the international standard for water efficiency management systems. It sets out requirements for an organisation to establish a water efficiency policy, review its water use and continually improve its water efficiency.

What is the ISO 46001 certification process?

Your organisation first implements a water efficiency management system that meets ISO 46001:2019. An independent, accredited certification body then audits the system and issues the certificate. CCIS supports you from the gap analysis through to the certification audit.

Is ISO 46001 mandatory?

ISO 46001 itself is voluntary. However, large water users in Singapore must follow PUB’s Mandatory Water Efficiency Management Practices, including submitting a Water Efficiency Management Plan. ISO 46001 helps organisations prepare this plan, and PUB encourages organisations to adopt it.

Can ISO 46001 be combined with other standards?

Yes. ISO 46001 shares a common structure with most ISO management system standards, including ISO 14001, ISO 50001, ISO 9001 and more, so any combination of them can be implemented as one integrated management system.

Is there government funding for ISO 46001?

Yes. ISO 46001 is supported under Enterprise Singapore’s EDGE Grant (Sustainability), which can co-fund consultancy and first certification costs for eligible Singapore companies. Support levels and conditions are set by Enterprise Singapore, and the application must be approved before the project begins. CCIS can advise on eligibility before you commit.
