How you can benefit from an energy management system

ISO 50001

Electricity bills are a big cost for business owners. The good news is that improving efficiency can help reduce the cost of electricity bills and bring significant benefits to business people. According to IEA’s 2018 energy efficiency report, energy efficiency improvements since 2000 have prevented a 12% increase in energy use in 2017.

From installing LED lighting to upgrading heating and cooling systems, businesses can implement a range of strategies to lower their energy footprint and at the same time improve property value and reduce operating costs. Other solutions include but are not limited to building sealing and insulation, power factor correction, and improving the quality of supply. This does not mean that you need to change some of your expensive assets. However, before acting, you should understand your energy profile to know which energy reduction strategies will best suit your business needs. This can be provided by energy management systems.

Here are some reasons why you should have an energy management system for your business.

1.) Know Your Energy Needs

Here’s an energy management strategy that will help you understand your consumption patterns i.e. when you’re using your energy most intensely and which kinds of processes or equipment are contributing to this.  You can pinpoint your energy waste with advanced data analytics.

Hence, reduction in your consumption will transform costs to savings and better your consumption patterns. In addition, if your business has operations in different locations, energy management systems will provide benchmarking across your offices/ branches/depots/ shops, etc.

2.) Improve Your Power Factor To Reduce Your Electricity Bill

An energy management system will also show your active and reactive power data which you will need to understand your power factor.

Power factor represents the relationship between real and apparent power.

Power factor is between 0 and 1, and a higher value means higher efficiency.

There are several types of power factor correction equipment like capacitors, static compensators, etc. which are used mainly for reactive power compensation and voltage regulation. Capacitors are generally a good fit in industries because of relatively cheaper installation costs compared to other measures. However, capacitors should be designed and sized properly to avoid the amplification of harmonics (resonance phenomena) generated by disturbing loads such as arc furnaces, welding machines or rectifiers. To avoid this, either harmonic filters or static compensators can be used.

3.) Track Your Energy KPIs To Reduce Your Operational Cost

Building energy performance can also be improved by effective energy management systems. Different business segments have different performance criteria; for example, consumption/m2, kWh/occupant rate for hotels, etc.

The energy management system also enables to set a target value like targeted electricity consumption/month and targeted cost/month so that deviations will be easily tracked and identified.  In addition, an energy management system provides a comparison between the previous and the current situation for energy efficiency assessments and helps to systematically develop KPIs.

4.) Reduce Your Electricity Demand Charge

A demand charge is a part of the commercial bill where a daily charge is determined by the highest power demand (load) observed during a certain timeframe during the day in a specified period. It is usually the maximum demand at a 15- or 30-min interval and calculated on kVA or kW. Your electricity bill will mostly be influenced by the highest demand for used energy at this particular point in time.

One of the main reasons kVA demand charges are being introduced is to encourage customers to improve their power factor. A poor power factor places higher demands on the electricity network. As you can see below invoice, the network demand charge in kVA contributes has the biggest portion of the total electricity bill.

5.) Being Aware Of Your Solar System Health

Owning a solar system will give you a big chance to reduce your electricity cost and demand charges, but it is very important to know if your solar system is working as expected.

The energy management system will send production in real-time, so if there is any failure in your system, you will get a notification and you will not wait for your next electricity bill to take action.

The energy management system will also give expected and actual production values to track your system performance for previous and current periods.

6.) Your HVAC System Is Under Control.

HVAC is one of the biggest energy-consuming equipment and needs to work efficiently.

Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) is generally responsible for a significant proportion of total building energy consumption. A typical system accounts for approximately 40% of total building consumption and 70% of base building (i.e., landlord)

7.) Energy Consumption In Buildings

Load disaggregation option of the energy management system will provide more insight about your HVAC and other energy consumed equipment load details. Reduction in energy use of HVAC can be achieved, and some of the strategies are:

Change or clean your HVAC filters

Identify optimum set points

Identify energy waste times

Kosher Certification in Indonesia

WHAT IS KOSHER CERTIFIED?

For a product to be kosher certified, and to qualify for a kosher certificate, each ingredient, food additive and processing aid used in its production must also be kosher. Additionally, to be kosher certified, the production process must be suitable for kosher requirements and therefore it must be approved by a kosher auditor. Products may be rendered non-kosher if their production lines and equipment are also used to manufacture non-kosher products.

Learn more about Kosher Certification.

KOSHER DEFINITIONS

MEAT & POULTRY

As instructed in the Bible, not all animals and birds are kosher. Common animals that are kosher include: cow, goat and sheep. Common animals that are not kosher include: pig, horse, camel and rabbit. The same applies to birds. Most poultry is kosher. This includes: chicken, turkey, goose and duck.

In order for meat and poultry to be kosher there are additional requirements. These include slaughter in accordance with Jewish law and removal of blood via salting or roasting. This must all be done under strict rabbinical supervision. Retail products containing any animal or poultry derived ingredient are assumed to be non-kosher unless certified by a reputable kosher agency.

DAIRY

Dairy products must come from kosher animals. In countries where the source of milk is guaranteed by civil law (e.g. in the EU and USA), some Jewish authorities allow milk products without full-time kosher supervision. Some communities still require their milk to be fully supervised; and this is known as Cholov Yisroel. Cheese products do not fall under the general dairy category, and require full-time kosher supervision because rennet is often derived from an animal source.

EGGS

Eggs are only kosher if they are from a kosher bird and do not contain any blood spots.

FISH

Kosher fish are species that have fins, and scales that are easily removed. Common examples include: salmon, tuna, sole and plaice. The scales of a sturgeon are extremely hard to remove – hence it is deemed to be not kosher. Common examples of non-kosher fish include: all shellfish, eels, shark, monkfish, huss and catfish. Roe and fish derivatives such as fish oil and gelatine must come from kosher fish.

PAREV

Food that does not contain any meat or dairy ingredients is known as Parev. For a food to be kosher certified as Parev it must also not share production equipment with meat or dairy products when these are produced at a temperature above 40°C. Parev foods may include egg and fish.

On the whole, parev foods present fewer kosher complexities than either meat or dairy foods.

INSECTS

All insects are considered strictly non-kosher. To ensure the absence of insects fruit and vegetables have to be thoroughly inspected and cleaned. Use of pesticides may be insufficient as these may kill the insects but not remove them.

PASSOVER

Every spring, the Jewish people celebrate the festival of Passover for 8 days. During this time Jews may not eat any leaven or fermented food or drink made from the following five grains: wheat, barley, oat, spelt and rye. Jews also may not use dishes, utensils or cookware that have been used for these grains.

Many Jewish communities also refrain from ‘Kitniyot’ during the Passover period. These are legumes or pulses which include corn, soy, rapeseed, peanuts, beans and rice.

Have you assessed your business security risks lately?

ISO 27001 information security management system

There are numerous ways an organization can protect against cyber-crime. Choosing an internationally recognized standard that provides an auditable method of monitoring, protecting and managing information is one option.

Achieving ISO 27001 Certification provides a framework of policies and procedures that will help prevent a security breach and limit the impact of a cyber-attack.

Using experienced consultants, you will be guided through the process, identifying any risks and tailoring the management process to your individual requirements. This will help to keep costs and disruption to a minimum should an incident occur.

Other benefits include:

Customers and business partners will have more confidence in your ability to keep their information safe.

Continuity of supply following an attack.

More reliable systems for storage of information.

ISO 27001 provides for a regular auditing procedure so you can continually improve your processes and keep up to date with the latest security measures to stay one step ahead of the criminals.

Whether you run a small business or a large organization, the need for an IT security risk assessment cannot be ignored. Many people don’t conduct security risk assessments, which increase the likelihood that they’ll experience a data breach. If you haven’t conducted a risk assessment lately, here are five reasons why you may want to do it as soon as possible

1. Avoid security breaches.

Regardless of how sophisticated your system is, you’re never immune to cybersecurity threats. Hackers, malware, viruses, and cyber criminals are always looking to take advantage of any loopholes and weaknesses in your system. Conducting security risks assessment helps identify gaps in your defenses and ensure that your team of experts repairs them before any data is corrupted. By conducting a security risk assessment, you can protect data from being compromised.

2. Protect your reputation.

Without frequent assessments, the risk of security breaches is high. That could affect how prospective clients and employees view your company. With looming security issues, your business seems less trustworthy, which in turn affects the number of people willing to keep doing business with you. With regular security risk assessments, the risk of data breaches is highly reduced, consequently securing your position and relationships with stakeholders.

3. Reduce overall costs and budgets.

Handling the fallout of security breaches and their consequences (such as lawsuits) might eat up a good chunk of your budget. Additionally, using the lowest level of security measures may be inefficient if the security gaps remain uncovered. To avoid wasting a good fraction of your funds on recovery costs, a security risk assessment is a must. The assessment allows you to plan ahead and decide what fraction of your budget is adequate for IT security.

4. Avoid violating privacy and data laws.

In most cases companies that handle sensitive data (such as PHI and PII) are required by law to abide by security and privacy laws (e.g., HIPAA). Failing to conduct security risk assessments is likely to result in a violation of these regulations. In cases where security breaches have occurred, there is risk of legal action being taken against you. To avoid non-compliance, it is important for you to conduct security risk assessments.

5. Increase productivity levels.

Without security risk assessments, most organizations operate with the fear of possible IT security breaches,which reduces efficiency and productivity. Without the proper knowledge and equipment to handle cyber security threats, you and your employees are likely to keep wasting time handling preventable issues. To reduce stress levels related to security concerns for your employees, conduct a security risk assessment today and watch productivity levels increase.

Businesses affected by cyber crime

There have been some high profile cases:

eBay

Hackers managed to access an eBay corporate account to gather user’s personal information.

JP Morgan Chase

A neglected server provided access to contact details for its account holding customers.

Home Depot

Payment systems were infected with malware that allowed hackers to steal credit card details.

Employees’ responsibility

It is not just about server access; employees are much more mobile these days and carry around company information on laptops and mobile phones. Data is stored on removable media which can be copied or lost.

Malware can infect company computers and mobile phones. To protect against these risks, you will need to establish policies to ensure employees know what they should and shouldn’t do.

Steps for a successful risk Management:

Identify Your Information Assets

Identify the Asset Owners

Identify Risks to Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability of the Information Assets

Identify the Risk Owners

Analyze the Identified Risks and Assess the Likelihood and Potential Impact if the Risk Were to Materialize

Determine the Levels of Risk

Prioritize the Analyzed Risks for Treatment

Benefits of Taking QMS Lead Auditor Course in Jakarta through IAS

How to Choose:

First of all, you must find a course that is accepted worldwide, because your personal certificate (in case of successful completion) depends on this.

Courses are normally organized by accredited (approved) bodies like certification bodies (UQAS, JAS-ANZ, etc.) or approved training organizations (IAS ,EAS, etc.) and run by approved lecturers (tutors). However, there are many “approved” and “accredited” organizations, but some of these approvals are only valid in the country where that body is located, or regionally accepted, or accepted in various countries based on multilateral agreements and so on. It is probably a good idea not to invest your money and time into courses that give certificates accepted only “somewhere,” but not everywhere.

As of now, the only globally accepted certificate for Lead Auditors comes from courses that are run by IRCA (International Register of Certificated Auditors)-approved organizations. So, first of all, you must find an organization that runs ISO 9001 LA courses under IRCA accreditation. Note that official ISO 9001 LA courses cannot be organized by person, but only through the above-mentioned organizations or organizations which have a partnership with approved organizations.

The prices of the courses differ greatly from country to country and depend on local market trends. Note also that during the approval process you are usually not paid by the certification body.

Steps  to follow  in  IATF 16949:2016 Internal Audit

IATF 16949

It seems that the internal audit is seen by many as a waste of time, just another box to check to keep up with an organization’s IATF 16949 Certification. The more optimistic of these people may believe that they are simply duplicating what the registrar will be doing when the internal audit could be so much more – a more frequent and a more thorough look at your processes than the registrar could ever have time for. On the negative end, the internal auditors are sometimes viewed as detectives looking for trouble, and employees feel the need to protect themselves by providing false data or hiding important information.

The internal audit process: 5 main steps

The reality is that the internal audit is invaluable to a process owner, bringing fresh eyes to look deeper into the process to find improvement opportunities – helping to create a faster, more effective and more efficient process. Read on to learn the five basic steps to an internal audit, and best practices to help process owners take advantage of areas of possible improvement.

1) Plan the audit schedule.

Crucial to the success of the internal audit process is developing an internal audit program, or audit schedule, and sharing it with the process owners. The IATF 16949 standard requires all QMS processes to be subject to audit during a three-year period, and knowing when each process is scheduled for audit allows everyone to be prepared. The internal audit program needs to take into account the complexity and significance of each process, prioritizing based on past performance, risk, and level of importance.

But, like all good plans, the internal audit program needs to remain flexible. Complaints from customers, changes to processes, and nonconformities – both internal and external – could indicate the need to review and adjust the program.

2) Plan the process audit.

Now that you have a basic outline of your audit plans, and roughly when each process is scheduled for audit, it’s time for the internal auditor to sit down with the process owners and confirm the best time to review each process. The auditor should look back at past audits to determine if he needs to follow up on any concerns or issues, and the process owner can point out any areas he would like the auditor to focus on. The process owner should see a benefit from the audit process – not worry about being “caught” doing something wrong.

3) Conduct the audit.

Before beginning the audit, the auditor should again meet with each process owner to confirm that the audit plan is feasible and that everyone is ready. Then, the auditor can begin to gather the information he needs through employee interviews, observation, review of documents and records, and analyzing key data from the process. The point of this information gathering is to make sure that the process follows what is written in the Quality Management System, and that it produces the desired results. Any areas that do not have evidence of proper functioning should be identified, and – even better – the auditor should make note of any aspects of the process that could be improved.

4) Report on the audit.

Once the auditor has gathered and analyzed the required information, a closing meeting should be scheduled with each process owner to discuss any problem areas in the process, and also any changes that could be made to further improve the process. These findings need to be documented in record form right away for future reference and follow-up. When the auditor shares positive findings and possible improvement opportunities, and not just the nonconformities, the process owner will be more accepting of the results, realize the greater benefit from the audit, and learn ways to improve the process.

5) Follow up on nonconformities or potential improvements.

Of course, identifying problems and areas for improvement is of little value without appropriate follow-up. Once corrective actions have been taken, it is critical to ensure that any problems have truly been resolved. And, if aspects of the process have been improved due to opportunities discovered during the audit, then finding out just how much improvement has been realized will motivate process owners to aim for continual improvement.

The key to a successful internal audit? Focusing on process improvement.

When the internal audit is seen as a way to look for potential improvements to processes, rather than just another box to check to stay compliant, an organization can reap tremendous benefits. Process improvement is a crucial part of any Quality Management System based on IATF16949, and it should be a key focus for any company that wants to implement and maintain an effective, efficient QMS – and realize savings in both times and money in the process. So, don’t think of the internal audit as a waste of time (or worse yet, a search for mistakes); think of it as one of the best ways to continually improve your processes.
