Hashtag /definitely/ helped Bee do a bit of research for his lil presentation. I know I used the internet to figure out the framework lmao

It's funny when you look up "what defines a good person" the ai kinda gives you a little list with fraggin suggestions of praise to give a good person. Then if you look up "What defines a bad person", it gives you like, factors for it and a list for signs of a toxic relationship and a couple hotline links. Oddly wholesome from google ngl

Also can glimpse a bit of depresso expresso Star. Mah dude has dealt with so much scrap that having a bit of an "im so done with this" scrap attitude be lingering

Chapter 10: Bee's Good Guy Crash Course

Starscream had found himself upon the floor in the odd room the Malto’s put together. He wasn’t about to trust that questionable berth. Splayed out with his wings against the cool stone, where no hidden restraints could pop out at him, was preferable. He’d made sure to check. 

Starscream had just spent the last groon or so picking apart every centihic of the place, in fact. No cameras in the posters, or that ugly lamp. Nothing amiss with the storage underneath the berth. The pillows as they’d been called still looked suspicious, but he hadn’t been able to prove how yet. The doorframe definitely harbored a means to seal him inside at their leisure, he just needed to make certain not to aggravate them to such a point. Prove that he could stay put voluntarily.

Starscream stared up at the fake little stars in thought. Could those possibly conceal turrets like those implemented by G.H.O.S.T.? They were rather small, but so were the humans, and their weaponry. He had tested one, and it seemed innocent enough, but that did not speak for all of them. The bots, nor the Malto’s, would trust leaving him alone in their little bunker without some insurance. They had to have some form of security. Even if it did only look like a ridiculous clubhouse for sparklings. 

His wing twitched as he felt the distinct vibrations of pedsteps through the floor. That was far more trustworthy than his audials which seemed to be constantly glitchy as of late. But whose were they? As they rhythmically made their way towards him, he calculated the pace of the stride with the weight. It was Bumblebee.

“Why are you on the floor?” The bug gestured a servo to him with an air of judgment.

Starscream remained silent for a moment as he glanced over at the mech, “What do you want?”

Bumblebee’s optical lids and doors dropped in annoyance, then he straightened with a slight roll of his helm. “Weeell, we had our time to get situated. So now, I thought–since the kids are either occupied with school or going out to find new cave springs–I could get you started on your good guy training! As I’m sure the Terrans could tell you, I’m a great teacher. And I put together a lecture on the dos and don’t of not being a garbage person!”

“Lucky me.” Starscream said sarcastically with a toss of his servo which promptly flopped back down with a thunk. Did he really have to listen to this scout?

Bumblebee groaned and stepped closer to stand over the seeker with his servos on his hips. “So get up! I’m not rolling my whiteboard in here for you.”

Starscream glared at him before pushing himself onto his peds with his own little noise of complaint. Allowing himself to be commanded by this bug was insulting. Yet there seemed no avoiding it given the circumstances, and at least it was something to do.

“Thank you.” The bug stated flatly as he turned to lead the way toward whatever annoying presentation he had planned.

A crate was pulled out in front of the aptly named “whiteboard”, which the bug told Starscream to take his seat in. One side of the board was labeled “pillars of being a good person”; Empathy, Consideration, Accountability, Prudence, Temperance, Justice, Fortitude. The rest was split into two sections detailing the aforementioned “dos and don’ts” in green versus red marker. 

Do: be kind, be patient, be understanding, be selfless, be compassionate, be respectful, be honest, be loyal, be helpful. 

Don’t: be rude, be selfish, be aggressive, be greedy, be spiteful, be insensitive, plot against your friends, want world domination, steal, be controlling, hit people, ignore people, manipulate people.

Those seemed rather personal, ridiculous, and quite debatable.

Bumblebee had retrieved a stick to point with, and tapped it on the red side. “First, we’ll go over what you shouldn’t do. For instance, you were rather rude a minute ago–”

“How?”

“Wha–what do you mean how?? You were giving me all this sass for no reason, didn’t answer my first question, and acted like a disgruntled teenager!” The bug counted on his digits. 

Starscream crossed his arms. “That’s an exaggeration. And what makes you believe you are even worth my respect?” Bumblebee looked just about ready to explode, but Starscream smirked with the thought that if the scout did decide to start a fight, he could point to the stupid little board that admonished hitting people. 

“DUDE! I’m the bot that was trusted to watch over you! Do you know how much I did in the war? I definitely kicked your tailpipe more than once!” The scout pointed the stick at starscream angrily before slumping backwards dramatically. “Ugh…just- regardless, being respectful to people isn’t something you should think they need to earn.”

Starscream laughed, “That’s cute. So you say that you really did just throw the Prime on your pedestal out of nothing but sheer reverence? He did nothing to prove his position worth your confidence?”

  “No! Optimus is an awesome leader, and ticks literally every box on the Do list! He’s done thousands of things to express why he’s a Prime–”

“What about Megatron?”

“He–...Megatron proved his conviction to us when he changed sides, and continues to prove it.” The bug had begun to avert his gaze. “He’s changed for the sake of our people. Optimus believes in him, so I do too. You still have a way to go to get to that point.”

“Ah, so all I have to do is betray everything I’ve stood by for practically my entire functioning, and destroy the Allspark–for you to think me worthy of your respect? Hah! Does that not go against your standard of loyalty? Megatron didn’t do scrap for our people. And that Prime is hardly a saint.”

Bumblebee ex-vented as he rubbed his optics. “…Let's just move on. Trust is the thing that needs to be earned. Shown by actions. Like not being a power hungry crazy person, or plotting world domination, or betraying your friends for your own selfish goals–” The bug abruptly stopped with a cringed expression before continuing– “Uh, yeah, so you should work on y’know, thinking about others and stuff.”

Starscream suddenly noticed his optics glitch and he shook his helm. Right. That was why the bug hesitated. Was Bumblebee actually afraid of him, after all that talk? He should be. A dozen morbid thoughts flashed through Starscream’s processor. The bug had some nerve acting as if he were so perfect.

The lightning flickered through his wings in a subtle warning, “Oh yes. Think about others, hm? What do you think I’ve been trying to do? Ah, right. I am the power crazy lunatic who wants to rule the world, purely for my own pleasure.” Starscream growled dangerously as he put a servo to his chassis before tossing it aside. “Can you honestly blame me for finding myself the only trustworthy candidate for the role? Or aspiring for something better than these pitiful state of affairs? Any friends I may have had, are dead, or betrayed me first. You know nothing, bug.”

Bumblebee scrutinized him with his optics as he actually seemed to be thinking about his next words. “Maybe not…” He tested the stick in his servos. “You’re not exactly the most easy to read mech, Starscream. But even if you really want to think you’re the hero somehow in that twisted processor of yours, we’re gonna have to get this stuff down.” He tapped the board, then added mockingly, “You came here with pure intentions of being redeemed, didn’t you?”

Starscream’s wing twitched, then he crossed his stabilizing servos and poised his posture. “Of course.”

“So how about you actually listen to your teacher for a second, ‘kay? Cool. Great.” The scout brought his stick to point at the first word in his list of pillars. “Empathy. The ability to relate to others on both an emotional and intellectual level. It’s like when you see someone get hurt, and you feel it too, and therefore–should be inclined to help them! It's all about that connection and understanding, that then leads us into Consideration. Which is being mindful of others’ feelings. You need to be empathetic towards someone who's in danger or struggling, and considerate of how your actions affect those around you. So, imagine I’m your partner on a mission, and I don't know, a building collapsed on me or something. You could either leave me there and run away to save your own plating, or pull me out of the rubble to safety. What do you do?”

Starscream’s processor blanked with an echo of static. There were too many variables that would need to be considered in that hypothetical. There wasn’t enough information. Even so, obviously he wouldn’t save an Autobot, that’d be foolish. Rescue the enemy on some naive basis of…empathy? A mech should be able to take care of themself. It would probably be the bug's own fault if he found himself in such a situation. Then who was Starscream to take his opportunity to prove himself capable of fixing his mistake? Saving useless mechs who can’t keep themselves online, would only lead to getting himself killed needlessly. Then how would that be helpful?

He could probably discern what response the scout wanted, but instead a different question escaped his intake. “Would you save a Decepticon in such a scenario?” The rampant hypocrisy amongst the bots irked him. 

“Well–” Bumblebee shifted as he hesitated to confess the obvious answer– “Look, I’m not talking about war, I’m talking about just in general. It doesn’t have to be me that you envision, it could be basically anyone. That's supposed to be the point.”

“If it is merely anyone, then why should I care?”

The scout ran a servo down his faceplate, “Fine. What if it was uh…Skywarp?”

Skywarp’s mangled frame, caught crushed between splintered shards of a once mighty structure, shattered by the Autobots. Skywarp leaking energon with only their helm and a servo free from their predicament. Barely conscious as they called out for Thundercracker in the carnage, who they’d never see again. Skywarp, being painfully quiet for a rare moment in their functioning, before screaming at Starscream for not looking for their brother harder. 

A clapping of servos faded in from a chaotic symphony of explosions and voices, into what they were. Bumblebee was trying to get his attention. 

“Hey! Hey, where’d you go man? You good?” The scout was next to him and centihics away from prodding him with that stupid stick.

Starscream smacked it away and snapped, “I’m fine. Of course I got Skywarp out–a lot of thanks that got me!” His optics flashed red as the memory of Megatron’s fusion cannon sending him crumpled down against the wall, while Skywarp watched, glitched in his processor. 

“Helping people isn’t about getting praised for it!” The bug snipped back as he grumpily retrieved his lost stick. “It’s about doing the right thing, and showing that you care about the people around you… You don’t regret helping them, right?” When Starscream couldn’t respond, Bumblebee continued. “...How about we go to the next topic?”

Starscream stared blankly. He didn’t care. He didn’t have a choice. This was stupid.

“Right…” The scout began awkwardly as he slowly raised his stick to point at the board again. “The next one is… Accountability. Taking responsibility for your actions. Which plays on the Consideration one, because as you consider others’ feelings, you can take yourself accountable when you hurt someone. Like how what you did hit Hashtag pretty hard, and you can take responsibility by acknowledging that. As well as y’know, try to make it up to her. Meg–uh…Oh Primus what’s a better example…? Let’s just focus on the point that to be a good person, you need to recognize when you mess up, and then do something constructive about it.”

Starscream was hardly listening. This whole thing was just a huge guilt trip. Set for the scout to shame him for what a horrible person he was.

The bug just kept talking. 

“Prudence is the act of being reflective, and objective when you’re making decisions. The reflective bit ties with the Accountability one in that it’s about you being aware of the effects of your actions, and that requires looking back on them and deciding what could be improved. The objective part is about not letting your biases, or anger, affect your decisions. Whiiiich goes into Temperance, that means controlling your passion in a way that doesn’t allow yourself to lash out at others. Like how you were getting a bit feisty earlier and snapping at everyone’s favorite teacher!” Bumblebee straightened a bit before pointing the stick at Starscream in some feeble attempt at scolding him. “Not cool. But, I know that might have been a bit fast, so how about another hypothetical! Let’s say, you accidentally broke the kid’s speaker because you hated the music or something. What do you do when they find out, or even before?”

“Plant the evidence where it could incriminate someone else.” Starscream responded immediately without much thought. 

The bug’s faceplate scrunched. “No…You’re–you’re supposed to take accountability. Tell them you did it, say you’re sorry, and either repair it or get them a new one.”

“Why put such a stain on your record–or risk them not accepting your peace offering–when you could simply frame someone else and let it be their problem? Openly admitting fault seldom gets you in anyone’s good graces.” Starscream rolled his optics at the absurdity.

“First, back to the empathy thing, you shouldn’t pawn your problems onto other people. If you are worried about the consequences, then you shouldn’t want to inflict it on someone else. Second, it’s again, not about getting on people’s good sides or praise or anything like that.”

“What is it then? Is it so you can congratulate yourself on how oh so virtuous you are for DoInG tHe RiGhT tHiNg, after they break your servo? It is either them or me. I do not apologize for being a bit selfish on the matter. Your morals are moronic.” 

Bumblebee put his servos together and brought them to his faceplate, then pointed his digits down. “...What about breaking a speaker is some life or death situation?” He let his servos fall. “Dude. No one’s going to do that over a little mistake.”

Starscream stared at him with a raised optical ridge skeptically. That statement was extremely doubtful. Mistakes could be deadly, no matter how insignificant. Even if such a thing may not seem like it would warrant such a response, it never stopped Megatron when he was in a mood. The bug could say that now, but he could not promise that for anyone in the future. Even himself.

The bug got a rather odd expression at his silence. “No one here is ever going to do that. We talk things out. That is how we deal with things in this team. We practice the Temperance and Prudence rules! Keeping our anger in check to manage our decisions in non-violent ways! With the exception of a bit of rough-housing–They might still be mad, but they would appreciate honesty. Your way would just make things worse, not better. Especially if they found out anyway. No one can be perfect, but you still gotta put forth that effort.”

Starscream rested his faceplate on his propped servo with bored optics, “Sure.”

“I’m serious.” The bug put a servo on his hip, “As long as you try, that still counts for something. And we help each other. I’m still a bit guilty of having those occasional moments where I’ve made more reckless decisions. It happens.” He shrugged, “You really just have to make sure to avoid those big ones.”

Avoid the big ones? What scale were these bots weighing their decisions upon? How was Starscream supposed to know what was large or small in their optics? Instances that he felt could be disregarded after proper punishment, seemed to linger for them. Destroying that device in the hypothetical, was apparently a low level offense, but that hardly grazed the range of circumstance. He didn’t have vorns to navigate this place. 

Starscream was glaring hard at basically nothing. This redemption angle of this ordeal was going to prove precarious… He didn’t understand why his way was wrong. It had always been how things worked, as far as he could remember. Perhaps… not with Skyfire, but he was different. They had been partners, equals. The power scales here were hardly clear.

The bug had been talking again.

“–guess fairness can be subjective sometimes. I’m sure you're thinking about some backhanded rebuttal already.” Bumblebee actually looked a bit disappointed when Starscream said nothing, and continued with his doors tipping downward. “...But the Justice pillar also ties in with our last one to wrap up today’s lesson, Fortitude. Which is the courage to stand up for what you believe in. To step in when you see something you know is wrong. Basically the complete opposite of the bystander effect! For instance, if you saw someone you care about being held accountable for something that wasn’t their fault–you’d come to their defense.”

Starscream thought of his trinemates again. “It is not so simple.”

“Well…for you, maybe not. But! If you keep these pillars in mind, and really try and implement them, it could get easier right? Practice?” Bumblebee’s vocalizer squeaked with his grin that was full of doubt. “Maybe?”

Starscream studied him for a moment. The bug had seemed to put in a significant amount of effort. As well as being perhaps a bit more self-aware than he thought, for a moment. The scout was certainly odd, but…he meant well. Something could be appreciated about that. Occasionally. 

Then, Starscream stood from the crate and turned to make his way back to his sparkly little quarters. He was still tired, and the assault on his audials he’d just endured did nothing for the ache in his processor. There were decidedly far too many things to think about.

Bumblebee was silent for a moment before calling out to him, “Okay yeah, good talk! I’ll get back to you on the practice exercises, so we can take a break for now!” 

Starscream put a servo up in acknowledgement before slipping into solitary. The idea of getting the last word was appealing, but he didn’t have the energy. Despite the fact that the small room wasn’t entirely comforting, it would at least be a reprieve from regulating every other mech around him every Primus damned nano-klik. 

Starscream stood there in the middle of the room a moment, as his optics drifted to one particular poster. The seekers soaring into the skies, away from a burning city. He approached it. Stared it down with vacant optics and tense servos.

Then ripped apart every scrap of those wretched structures. Until only the sky and his seekers remained. 

A foolish dream, really.

[yourtoradorasextendedwarranty]

hi! read your long public transit rant that you responded with to someone a while back. i partially disagree ! and im making it your problem <3

ill try to account for your arguments being made specifically in the american context but i will fail becuase i am tired and ill and europe ian and silly and am responding from my memory of reading it 10 minutes ago now

firstly: you claim introduction of buses would necessitate widening of roads, would risk bus breakdowns, and would create a harmful reliance in rural areas. 1. a person in a bus means a person not in a car. if i remember correctly in america an average car trip will involve 1.2 - 1.6 people in the car? a bus then needs to carry around 4 passengers to take up less road surface ! public transit is regularly suggested and implemented by people smarter than i as a measure against congestion. the roads will not need widening. 2. breakdowns, while potentially impactful are... such an edge case? sure, even if the average american is, say, even 1.5 times heavier than any european country. that simply doesnt matter? even if it was a problem, theres no way american buses wouldnt be ordered from an american firm, where a Tiny portion of the environmental benefits can be traded for a bus that is up to that task. 3. the first thing id like to say is: no one would Ever, ever here, suggest public transit to 100% replace cars. especially in rural areas, people will simply continue to have cars. taxis and ridesharing services may shrink, but theyll always be there in a pinch. most times transit is advocated for, it isnt in rural areas anyway. one of the main trouble points with cars is the large necessity for parking space in cities, and that in many places, the average car trip is comedically short, and is only taken for lack of a better option. both are problems transit easily solves, alongside myriad other benefits. removing this large parking requirement can allow for greater density, better land use, and easier transition to walkabilty, which is usually the ultimate goal.

secondly, you discredit bicycles. obese people wont ride + disabled people cant

even if the currently obese do not ride, the presence of the possibility means future generations will not be so obese, but frankly, there is little reason why the current population couldnt start. as for the disabled: there are always other options? thats the point. they can always have small electric vehicles within allowances to use bike paths, or even keep their car (which also isnt very disablity friendly!!)

3. trains. fu ken love em. you say: too expenisive to maintain, and no political will (to many obstacles), and no money 2 build

first, as for the money: yes! you are right ! amercia has no monry for anything! not healthcare not road maintenance not science ! thats not the trains fault ! but the humble asphalt road is far worse. its attacks on your nations budget are multipronged: a. car dependency leads to the need for quite a few, and alongside zoning laws, creates very many low density suburbs that must all have city funded services, including the roads. so low density, that many wealthy culs de ballsack are actually a net loss in tax revenue ! with less asphalt (and better zoning) cities would readily have more money to spend, by way of having to maintain smaller utilities networks, which service the same or more people ! 2. asphalt road is cheap to build and a bitch to maintain. so much so, that it is a constant drain on treasuries, to such an extent that more constantly needs to be built to try and scrounge up more tax revenues to pay for ehat is already there.google "growth ponzi scheme".

2. maintenance! thats simply not true. a high initial investment is needed for trains, yes, but maintenance? generally, a wellbuilt track's maintenance schedule involves a semiregular visit by and engineering car to ensure the track is intact, which is a few salaries and a pitance of electricity, and a track replacement every few decades, which is considerably cheaper than what and asphalt road seeing similar ridership would need.

3. no political will

yes !!! yess!! thats why we advocate !! save for bumfuck nowhere, alaska and wyoming as a whole /j there is scarcely anywhere that wouldnt benefit from expanded transport ! but there are entities that wouldnt! unfortunately for americans, these entities have money! there js no transit, because automaker lobbies dont want you to have it!!! thats why you advocate !!

if yku bothered to read i love you

good night

i am literally always corrext except when i m not whi h is never btw

I'm not going to lie to you when I said I skimmed to this. And the reason is because you clearly need to go back and read my post.

The United States actually has some degree of public transportation. But the post that I was responding to in one of those posts, did not state that we would have to widen the roads if we introduced buses. We actually already have public buses. In most cities. Hell since it is even have trolleys. Some I'm actually have both. My statement was more towards if we got rid of vehicles which they wanted to outside of public transport, We would have to increase the amount of buses. That would facilitate a need to make wider roads in general. Unless you created an entire fleet of short buses, which would in turn actually make things worse as far as traffic.

You are so vastly underestimate the size of the United States in the amount of money that it would be required to maintain public infrastructure such as public transportation across states. Also you ignore the amount of damage that it would need to be done to upend a lot of different locations especially those of rural types. What's more, American natural disasters have to be taken into effect in regards to this maintenance. And further still the initial investment needs to be able to happen.

So what I would strongly suggest is doing yourself a favor and reading into the abject failure that was the high speed rail that California was supposedly attempting to make and has spent I think north of a billion dollars on and if not even gotten an entire mile done. So I would go back to my post, whichever one it may be, reread what I said with an open mind and try to understand where I'm coming from. Because it sounds like you read what I wrote while trying to come up with a rebuttal. Rather than attempting to understand what I was explaining.

[rubiisangry]

Hi Tumblr Im still alive!!?

Was watching a bit of the Teen Titans cartoon and thought of a Danganronpa superhero AU. (hope you like reading cuz its ALOT)

• Basically the survivors are the heroes (in their respective games: Thh is a group, Sdr2 is a group, V3 is a group)

• The blackends (which is a banger group name btw) are the villains (minus a few)

• The victims are other helpful side characters maybe. Or the damsel in distress?

• Idk where Kiibo fits in tho :(

• Maybe he can join the V3 heroes because there's only 3 survivors in that group and I like Kiibo :)

• Same with Sakura and Nagito. Because their murders weren't actually *murders* technically they wouldn't be blackeneds. Maybe a different type of villain (solo villains although I dont really see that for Sakura)

• Gonta is staying a Villain tho >:)

• Idek how I'll do that, he's so kind but I'll turn him evil somehow...

• Also kaede isn't a killer either idk what to do with her

• All characters are around 20 - 22 (V3 being the youngest, Sdr2 being the oldest of the range) because why tf would you send children into battle???

• They all have different backstories as to how they have their powers or abilities or skills, although I wanna implement similar lore to their canon backstories.

• Yes this is another AU I made specifically with Fuyupeko in mind

• I just love the villain turned good because of 1 specific person trope (Fluttercord im looking at you)

• Also I think it'd be really funny if Peko becomes a good guy just in the background, off screen if you will (for the heroes)

• Like Fuyuhiko and Peko talk their differences out in private and one day Peko just comes over to hang out and everyone is like 😱

• Anyways idk about what superpowers to give everyone. Likes like over 40 characters in Dangan, there's too many 😭😭😭

• Obviously Junko main villain

• I feel like she's the type to do everything in the Background so even the villains don't really know who she is at all (except Mukuro obviously and maybe Tsumugi)

• Also the Future Foundation is a Superhero training academy and hopes peak is part of government organisation (basically flipped from canon)

• That probably has to do with Hajimes lore idk

• Highschool friends Komahina anyone? Falling out Komahina anyone? Friends to enemies to lovers Komahina anyone?

• Komaeda maybe has powers like Jinx (luck related and shit idk)

• He basically has superpowers in canon istg

• Obvi like in DC some heros and villains don't have powers, like Robin and whatever the bald one is called.

• Idk who would/wouldn't have powers tho.

• To keep going about the Fuyupeko thing (because I'm obsessed) I think they'd still have grown up together, still be part of some form of criminal organisation (which ig would be a pretty big lore drop in a superhero AU), and still have the whole Personal Servant thing, but at some point they have some form of misunderstanding or they get separated which leads them to get manipulated into disliking one another or something idk.

• I like to think that the different hero/villain groups are scattered all across various cities in Japan based off of their respective game obviously. Idk if I'd do fake ones like in many Superhero comics or actual irl Cities (although I'm probably never gonna make. Anything out of this lol)

• Danganronpa THH heroes are called "Bold Obliques" (Its part of the name of the English font used in Danganronpas title) and the villains are called "The blackends"

• They'd basically be the "main cast" even if im a Sdr2 girlie at heart.

• The classic Makoto vs Junko story based off of the OG but its Superheroes instead of murder games.

• Although I do think in a hypothetical grand finale the 3 main teams join against her and beat her up or some shit idk

• Also I think I might merge THH and UDG together. Just because compared to the other 2 there's far less villains (there's only 3 😭)

• So maybe the Towa group is working with the blackends or something. I might have to think more about it.

• Also I'm still not entirely sold of the killers being the ONLY villains thing. Maybe some victims will as well (not Sakura or Chihiro tho) considering hifumi basically was an acomplice to Celeste and Sayaka was the one trying to kill Leon in the first place.

• The THH hero base is a massive mansion because lets be honest without Togami the team is NOTHING.

• Its like batman but he's a blonde asshole

• The Sdr2 Heroes are called "Neo World Fighters" and the villains are called "The Remnants" (duh)

• I STRAIT UP CANT THINK OF A GOOD HERO TEAM NAME 😭😭😭

• Anyways these guys have more villains compared to the THH heroes (It's 5 v 5 until Peko leaves technically only 4 since Nagito is basically his own villain)

• Plus Chiaki is like the supporting tech hero, who stays at the base and gives useful info. The NERD character if you will 🤓

• Or maybe she's a helpful AI?

• Actually I think I like the Idea of Usami filling that role instead.

• I do like the idea of Hiyoko and Ibuki being villains.

• Tbf almost everyone in that group were war criminals in canon so they technically (by my logic) can ALL be villains 🤷‍♀️

• I think I'm pretty comfortable with the current setup for them tho maybe possibly maybe...

• Um I think their super cool hero base is a really shitty apartment or something

• Or maybe its a luxurious apartment with cool gadgets and secret rooms and stuff

• Although I've been basing different groups off of different DC hero's that I know (which isn't many) and I said I got inspired from the Teen Titans cartoon, so maybe their base is on an Island... Like Jabberwock but small? Idk maybe the penthouse is cool? Maybe something else idk?

• The V3 Heroes are called "The V3s" (??) and the villains are called "The Inmates"

• Also, because I can, "DICE" is its own organisation. Idk if its good or bad yet tho. But Kokichi is NOT a damsel in distress unfortunately.

• Um Shuichi, Maki, Himiko and. Kiibo is a tiny group

• I might add kaede to the group aswell

• Then the group name makes NO SENSE WTF 😭😭😭😭

• Compared to the amount of villains its basically even (5 v 4)

• ALSO Their main villain is Tsumugi who is the "head" of the Inmates so basically its even

• Anyways their Headquarters is a building with a big dome as one of the roofs. Like the game get it? (I'm so good at this)

• Its almost midnight and I'm going insane writing this, it's been 2 hours

• As I said Junko is the main Villain

• She runs a massive Villain organisation that basically has hired other organisations so she's really powerful or something (idk how it works I'm not a criminal)

• The thing is nobody actually knows her name she just goes by Monokuma with the bear and stuff to her minions

• And to the general public they don't even know she's the big bad guy she's just some influencer or something whos hiding in plain sight 🫢

• Isn't that fun?

I should go to bed maybe. I might try to elaborate on things further concerning different lores for the games and also figuring out everyones powers/lack thereof and LORE. Or I'll forget about it in a few days (the most likely answer)

man this mod is adorable. Im excited to see the subway boys as parents if you choose to implement that

I'm glad that you think so! We actually filled out all of the dialogue prompts regarding submas having children so, yes, you can become parents with them. Whether or not they're good at it.... well.....

We tried to keep things as realistic as possible between them while following the same kind of prompts found within the parenting dialogue for the vanilla characters (which... includes more awkward things like how they would hint at wanting a second child... ;;>.>)

For Ingo, we thought would have a better time being a parent than his brother, since he's the customer service representative between them and would be more experienced in taking care of others/children. Emmet..... would try his best! He would struggle more with things.... he's not the the best with people in general, let alone children. Emmet is more used to taking care of Pokémon and has a lower tolerance for usual child things like making messes or not following whatever rules he sets (they're babies... they can't read or understand him...) and he gets frustrated about that. That's not to say that Ingo doesn't have his share of struggles, either! They love their children, but they both get terribly worried and stressed about them.

The both of them do enjoy being uncles to each other's children, though! They always talk about each other and make sure to visit often (.... pretend children ever actually leave the house in Stardew lol).

You can see all of the parenthood related lines under the readmore! ("OneKid" indicates the farmer having one child, with "TwoKid" indicating having two children)

  ▲ Ingo ▲

"OneKid_0": "Our little conductor has been quite curious as of late! [Kid Name] has been running around at full-steam! Even Chandelure has not been able to keep up with them!"

  "OneKid_1": "I hope you don’t mind if I take [Kid Name] with me to the station sometime! Emmet has been wanting to show them how a steam train works! Of course, they won’t quite understand the complexities of a locomotive just yet, but I’m sure that he would allow them to sound the whistle! Since [Kid Name] already enjoys the sound of a wooden train whistle- well- I can’t wait for them to hear the real thing!"

  "OneKid_2": "I have noticed that our little conductor seems a bit lonely as of late.... Do not worry, my dear. [Kid Name] is happy and healthy! Though, I can’t help but think they are missing something..... I’m not sure what. Perhaps it will come to me at a later time. For now, they seem content with playing with the Pokémon! Why, Excadrill has been attempting to teach them how to dig outside! Which.... leads to the problem of them tracking mud everywhere…. Ghuugh… I’ll see if Garbador can help with cleanup."

  "OneKid_3": "[Farmer Name]... our little conductor has been having an issue falling asleep at night. They have become quite the troublesome Noctowl.... On top of that- when they do sleep, they are like a Snorlax. I cannot get them to wake! I feel as if [Kid Name] has inherited my sleeping habits, as I do make it a habit to be up quite late during work hours and, well, you know how I can get in the early mornings. Perhaps a visit to Dr. Harvey can give us an idea how to adjust their schedule! They are still growing and need a proper schedule!"

  "TwoKid_0": "It fills the firebox that is my heart with joy seeing [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] play together. They have certainly become their own two-car train. Much like myself and Emmet when we were kids.... [Kid Name] cares a considerable amount for [Second Kid Name]. I should perhaps take them to see Emmet."

  "TwoKid_1": "[Farmer Name]... are you alright with our little conductors leaving home someday? Of course, it’s in the far off future.... but, I cannot help but worry about what's to come. Why, alongside my brother, I went off on a Pokémon journey just like most other children do when they reach the age of 10, of course others start a bit later in their teens... To travel and see the world with Pokémon... it is a life changing experience. You learn a lot and are never alone. No matter what tracks [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] choose in life, I will support them every step of the way. I will always encourage them to aim for greater heights! Aah... apologies, my dearest..... Emmet may be right about my hairline if I keep worrying about unplaced tracks."

  "TwoKid_2": "[Second Kid Name] has become quite fussy with their food as of late. Why, they keep feeding Garbador the vegetables you have worked so hard to grow! Perhaps there is a texture they dislike..... It is quite the problem. I also believe [Kid Name] is hiding their food as well...... Uuugh... I hope Emmet and I were not like this towards Drayden when we were younger. Though. I wouldn’t doubt it if we were!"

  "TwoKid_3": "I noticed today that [Second Kid Name] was upset about something. I was about to check up on them when [Kid Name] stepped in and cheered them up! I can’t help but be proud of them both... I hope that they continue on these tracks, with no end terminal in sight! Sorry dear, for derailing a bit..... I can’t help but miss my own brother at times! Our children both remind me greatly of when we were little conductors ourselves! Though, I know I can see him anytime, as his tracks are right around the corner! Perhaps I should plan to take them both to visit their favorite uncle!"

▽ Emmet ▽

  "OneKid_0": "I am Emmet. I've never expected to be a father. I will be the best! Yup! I will make sure [Kid Name] is verrrry happy! I am nervous, though. What if I mess up? Is this what Drayden felt? If it is, then it is not a nice feeling. Nope."

  "OneKid_1": "I am Emmet. I have to pay attention to [Kid Name]. I do not want Eelektross or Galvantula to accidentally shock them. That will be verrrrrrry bad! They are not used to Electric-type Pokémon. Joltik should be okay though. They do not conduct their own electricity... and if they do accidentally exert it, it is like a static shock. I may be immune to paralysis now, but I remember static not being that bad. A kid can handle it. I did. I'm fine now. Unstoppable, even! Eelektross will have to learn to be verrrry gentle though. But do not worry darling. [Kid Name] will be okay! Worst case, I'll protect them!"

  "OneKid_2": "[Kid Name] seems lonely. They play with plenty of Pokémon. But they have no one to share their experience with.... I can't imagine growing up like that. I am Emmet. I was always a two-car train with Ingo. I think it would be verrrrrrrrry lonely without him. I wonder if we would have been okay with only our Pokémon.... That makes me rather sad to think about. Nevermind. Maybe I'm projecting. I am Emmet. [Kid Name] is [Kid Name]. Maybe they would be better with a sibling. Maybe they're fine as they are now. It is what it is."

  "OneKid_3": "I am Emmet! I will be taking [Kid Name] to see Ingo at the station! It will be verrrry exciting for [Kid Name] to learn about trains! Ingo is a verrrry good Uncle! Yup! However, he spoils [Kid Name]..... That is not good if he accidentally praises them for breaking a verrrrry important rule..... [Kid Name] will be on their best behavior! Yup! It is verrrry important at the Railroad to follow all safety checks and operating procedures! Follow the rules. Safe driving. Follow the schedule. Everybody smile! Check Safety! Right, [Kid Name], you will be verrrry well behaved! All aboard!"

  "TwoKid_0": "I am Emmet... I am verrrry happy to have [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name]. I love them verrry much. They have become a two-car train. They look out for each other. However, they are trouble makers..... They get into everything. Yup. Galvantula has tried to help, but she has her Joltiks to worry about. [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] are our little Joltiks."

  "TwoKid_1": "[Second Kid Name] keeps on pulling on Archeops' tail. He is being verrrrry patient with them. But he cannot fly away, as he is not good with flying. So he is stuck with [Second Kid Name]... [Kid Name] keeps leading themself into trouble. I found them hiding in a laundry basket. Yup. They made a mess everywhere. Durant has been helping with finding them, as they run around everywhere. They have a lot of energy! Too much energy…. They are a speeding train with no end in sight!"

  "TwoKid_2": "I am Emmet. I am getting verrry annoyed at Ingo. He says I can be a bit too hard on our kids.... But there are rules that [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] must follow! Safety checks are verrrrrry important. Especially around our Pokémon. They may break the rules. Or plan behind my back. Thinking that I am not watching…. But I see them. They are verrrrry quick learners though. I cannot stop them. I should apologize to Ingo for teasing him about his hair. Having [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] has made me verrrrry worried for their safety! I just want them to grow up to be the best! Yup! But it is verrry difficult! Because they do not follow any rules!"

  "TwoKid_3": "[Second Kid Name] has become verrrry competitive. They think everything is a game..... Do you think [Second Kid Name] will be a good Pokémon Trainer? The tracks of becoming a Pokémon Trainer are verrrrrry far away. I went on a journey with Ingo when I was 10! Just like everyone else! Yup! If [Kid Name] and [Second Kid Name] decide to go on a Pokémon Journey. I will miss them and worry about them everyday. But I know they will be the best! With you by my side, [Farmer Name], I know I will be okay with our little Joltiks leaving to pursue their own dreams. But for now. They need us! They are toddlers! Verrrrrry troublesome toddlers...."

Why do you need to join ISO 9001, 14001 & 45001 Internal Auditor Training

 In today’s competitive and compliance-driven business landscape, organizations are expected to maintain high standards in quality management, environmental responsibility, and occupational health and safety. ISO standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 have become essential frameworks to help achieve these goals.

But implementation is only part of the story. To ensure continuous improvement and compliance, internal audits are vital — and that’s where trained internal auditors come in. Whether you're a professional seeking career growth or an organization aiming for operational excellence, enrolling in ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 Internal Auditor Training is a strategic move.

What is Internal Auditor Training?

Internal auditor training equips individuals with the skills and knowledge to:

·        Plan and conduct internal audits

·        Evaluate the effectiveness of a management system

·        Identify non-conformities and areas for improvement

·        Report audit findings clearly and constructively

When the training covers ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety Management), it provides a comprehensive understanding of how to audit an Integrated Management System (IMS).

7 Key Reasons to Join ISO 9001, 14001 & 45001 Internal Auditor Training

1. Boost Your Career Prospects

Being trained as an internal auditor adds significant value to your resume. Organizations prefer candidates who understand ISO standards and can perform audits, especially in industries like manufacturing, construction, IT, and healthcare.

2. Ensure Compliance and Avoid Penalties

With increasing regulatory scrutiny, companies must demonstrate compliance with health, safety, and environmental standards. Internal auditors play a key role in ensuring processes meet these requirements, reducing the risk of fines or legal action.

3. Drive Continuous Improvement

Audits aren’t just for ticking boxes. A skilled internal auditor helps identify process gaps, inefficiencies, and areas for improvement. This leads to better quality products/services, safer workplaces, and reduced environmental impact.

4. Strengthen Your Organization’s IMS

Integrated training helps professionals audit multiple systems simultaneously. This reduces duplication of efforts, saves time, and provides a holistic view of the organization’s performance.

5. Prepare for External Certification Audits

Well-conducted internal audits prepare the organization for successful third-party certification audits. You can spot issues before an external auditor does — improving the chances of achieving or maintaining ISO certification.

6. Empower Cross-Functional Knowledge

Training exposes professionals to various departments such as quality control, safety, HR, operations, and environmental compliance. This cross-functional exposure enhances collaboration and system thinking.

7. Stay Updated with the Latest ISO Practices

ISO standards evolve. Training keeps you current with the latest versions and requirements of ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001. You’ll learn not only theory but also practical insights, case studies, and best practices.

Who Should Attend This Training?

·        Quality, Safety, and Environmental Professionals

·        Operations and Production Managers

·        Compliance Officers

·        HSE Executives

·        Consultants and Trainers

·        Any professional involved in internal auditing or ISO implementation

Conclusion

ISO Internal Auditor Training for ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 is more than just a certificate — it’s a stepping stone toward personal and organizational excellence. Whether you aim to enhance your career or help your company achieve sustainable compliance and performance, this training is a must.

ISO 22000 Certification: Ensuring Food Safety Across the Global Supply Chain

Food safety is a critical concern worldwide, affecting not only public health but also the reputation and success of food businesses. In response to increasing consumer awareness and regulatory requirements, organizations are turning to internationally recognized standards to ensure the safety of their food products. One such standard is ISO 22000, which provides a comprehensive framework for food safety management systems (FSMS). ISO 22000 certification demonstrates an organization's commitment to producing safe food, maintaining consumer trust, and complying with global food safety regulations.

What is ISO 22000?

ISO 22000 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization. First published in 2005 and revised in 2018, it sets out the requirements for a food safety management system that integrates key elements like interactive communication, system management, and prerequisite programs (PRPs).

The standard is applicable to all organizations in the food chain—ranging from primary producers and processors to transporters, retailers, and food service providers. It can even apply to suppliers of equipment, packaging, cleaning agents, and other food-related services.

Key Components of ISO 22000

ISO 22000 combines the principles of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) with ISO’s high-level structure used in other management system standards such as ISO 9001. The key components include:

Interactive Communication: Effective communication among all stakeholders, both internally and externally, is vital for identifying and controlling food safety hazards.

System Management: A structured FSMS ensures consistency in food safety practices and continual improvement.

Prerequisite Programs (PRPs): These are the basic conditions and activities necessary to maintain a hygienic environment, such as sanitation, pest control, and equipment maintenance.

HACCP Principles: ISO 22000 incorporates the seven HACCP principles, including hazard analysis, identifying critical control points, establishing critical limits, monitoring procedures, corrective actions, verification, and record-keeping.

Risk-Based Thinking: ISO 22000 emphasizes identifying risks and opportunities that can affect food safety, supporting proactive prevention strategies.

Leadership and Commitment: Top management plays a crucial role in establishing a food safety culture and aligning the FSMS with the organization’s strategic direction.

Benefits of ISO 22000 Certification

Enhanced Food Safety: The primary advantage is the assurance that food safety risks are systematically identified and controlled, minimizing the likelihood of foodborne illnesses and recalls.

Regulatory Compliance: ISO 22000 aligns with global food safety laws and regulations, helping organizations meet both local and international requirements.

Improved Credibility and Market Access: Certification enhances the company’s reputation, builds consumer trust, and facilitates access to global markets where ISO 22000 is recognized.

Operational Efficiency: The structured approach to risk management and documentation helps streamline processes, reduce waste, and improve efficiency.

Customer Satisfaction: By ensuring product safety and consistency, organizations can meet and exceed customer expectations, leading to improved loyalty and brand value.

Integration with Other Management Systems: ISO 22000’s compatibility with ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) makes it easier for organizations to develop an Integrated Management System (IMS).

Steps to Achieve ISO 22000 Certification

Gap Analysis: Assess the current food safety practices against ISO 22000 requirements to identify gaps and areas needing improvement.

Top Management Commitment: Senior leadership must be actively involved, providing resources and support for implementation.

Training and Awareness: All relevant personnel should be trained in food safety principles and ISO 22000 requirements.

System Development: Establish the FSMS, including documentation, PRPs, hazard analysis, CCP identification, and control measures.

Implementation: Put the system into practice, including record-keeping, monitoring, and corrective actions.

Internal Audit: Conduct audits to verify the FSMS is functioning effectively and complies with ISO 22000.

Management Review: Regular reviews by top management ensure the FSMS remains suitable, adequate, and effective.

Certification Audit: Engage a third-party certification body to audit the system. If compliant, the organization will receive ISO 22000 certification.

Challenges in Implementation

While ISO 22000 offers significant benefits, organizations may face certain challenges, such as:

Resource Allocation: Implementing a new FSMS can require substantial investment in time, training, and infrastructure.

Employee Engagement: Ensuring all staff understand and follow food safety procedures consistently can be difficult, especially in large or decentralized operations.

Documentation Burden: Maintaining comprehensive records and documentation requires discipline and ongoing effort.

However, these challenges can be effectively managed through careful planning, leadership involvement, and a phased implementation approach.

ISO 22000 vs. Other Food Safety Standards

ISO 22000 is often compared to other food safety certifications like FSSC 22000, BRCGS, and SQF. One of its key advantages is that it is globally recognized and not limited to a specific region or market. While FSSC 22000 builds upon ISO 22000 with additional requirements, ISO 22000 alone provides a robust foundation for any organization committed to food safety.

Conclusion

ISO 22000 certification is a powerful tool for any organization involved in the food supply chain. It ensures that food safety hazards are identified and managed proactively, builds consumer confidence, and supports compliance with regulatory and customer requirements. In an industry where the cost of failure is high—both in human and business terms—ISO 22000 offers a structured, internationally recognized path to consistent, safe food production. With rising consumer expectations and regulatory scrutiny, obtaining ISO 22000 certification is not just a best practice—it's a strategic necessity for long-term success in the global food industry.

Partner Training: Key to Your Brand’s Success

Today, building a sustainable partner ecosystem is crucial to a brand’s success. In this interconnected business landscape, initiating and maintaining a stable business partnership has become a mature process. It is no longer limited to just contract signing. In the tech domain, for many organizations, channel partners, resellers, value-added resellers, distributors, and integrators are the crucial extensions of their internal business development, marketing, and support teams.

Hence, to unlock the real worth of your partnership, you need a stable partner enablement strategy. So, what exactly is partner enablement? Ideally, partner enablement refers to helping and equipping your partners with the necessary knowledge, tools, resources, and support needed to effectively sell, market, implement, and support your products or services.

Is partner enablement negotiable?

The answer is No. It would be fatal for any organization to negotiate on its partner enablement efforts. When executed properly, the benefits of partner enablement programs are multifaceted and directly impact the bottom line.

Let's look at some vital benefits of a structured partner enablement program.

Improved sales efficiency and performance: When your partners are equipped with the right training, relevant product knowledge, compelling sales collateral, and strategies, it becomes easier for them to close deals faster. It helps them promote your brand efficiently by becoming your leading brand advocates.

Widened market reach: One of the crucial strategies for a brand’s success is its market penetration. Usually, partners have access to niche markets, geo territories, and customer segments at the local level. This helps the brand expand its footprint and introduce offerings into the new market.

Enhanced Brand Representation & Consistency: With well-trained partners, brands can convey the right brand messaging and value proposition. This ensures a consistent customer experience across all channels, strengthening your brand reputation and fostering trust.

Improved Customer Satisfaction: Addressing customers’ concerns at the right time effectively leads to higher customer satisfaction. A trained partner makes this look simple and fast. This creates a positive feedback loop, benefiting both you and your partners.

Competitive Advantage: In various industries, such as manufacturing, PC hardware, and retail, a well-trained partner or supplier network often leads to an unbeatable competitive advantage.

How to develop an effective partner enablement program? You need the right training partner! The partner enablement program is not merely delivering content. It is more about developing genuine understanding, ensuring consistent brand representation, and enabling partners to become your brand extension.

A proficient training partner will help you craft tailored training programs that resonate with different partner needs and leverage innovative learning methodologies. With the help of ongoing support, the training partner is pivotal in transforming raw information into actionable knowledge.

This helps in partner retention, enhancing sales effectiveness, and improving overall customer satisfaction. Without the right training partner, enablement efforts risk becoming fragmented, ineffective, and ultimately, a missed opportunity for significant business growth.

The Road Ahead:

With the changing business requirements, the landscape of partner enablement is constantly evolving.

Some of the key trends to consider ahead:

Increased Ecosystem Complexity: As partner ecosystems grow, the need for robust support and tailored enablement becomes even more critical. AI-Driven Personalization: AI will play a growing role in delivering personalized training, content recommendations, and coaching to partners based on their specific needs and performance. Digital-First Enablement: Emphasis on self-service digital platforms, virtual training, and immersive learning experiences to provide just-in-time support. Data-Driven Insights: Leveraging advanced analytics to gain deeper insights into partner performance, identify high-value collaborators, and optimize resource allocation. Focus on Deeper Relationships: Beyond incentives, organizations invest in building stronger, more collaborative relationships with partners, fostering a true sense of mutual benefit.

Conclusion:

As we move into an AI-driven era, partner enablement becomes a strategic initiative. With the help of the right training partner, the brands need to invest in equipping, empowering, and engaging partners.

In an attempt to make partners an influential brand extension, brands need to invest steadily in partner enablement. In a world where collaboration is key, finding and nurturing the right partner enablement strategy is truly the key to unlocking shared success.

Choosing the Right ISO 14001 Consultant in Singapore: A Comprehensive Guide

Finding the right partner to guide your organization through the ISO 14001 certification process is crucial for success. In Singapore, the landscape of environmental management is evolving rapidly, making expert assistance more valuable than ever. This comprehensive guide will help you navigate the selection process for an ISO 14001 consultant in Singapore, ensuring you choose a firm that aligns with your specific needs and goals. When it comes to a proven track record and deep local expertise, consider IMS Consultancy.

ISO 14001 isn't just a certificate; it's a commitment to improving your environmental performance, reducing your ecological footprint, and demonstrating corporate social responsibility. A well-implemented Environmental Management System (EMS) can lead to significant cost savings, enhanced reputation, and improved stakeholder relationships. However, achieving certification requires a thorough understanding of the standard, meticulous documentation, and a systematic approach to environmental management. This is where a specialized consultant becomes indispensable.

So, what should you look for in an ISO 14001 consultant in Singapore?

1. Experience and Expertise: The consultant should possess extensive experience in environmental management systems and a deep understanding of the ISO 14001 standard. Look for a firm with a proven track record of successful certifications across various industries in Singapore. Ask for case studies or client testimonials that demonstrate their capability. A consultant with a strong technical background in environmental regulations and best practices will be invaluable.

2. Local Knowledge and Regulatory Acumen: Singapore has its own unique environmental regulations and cultural nuances. A consultant with a strong understanding of the local regulatory framework, including the Environmental Protection and Management Act (EPMA) and other relevant guidelines, can ensure your EMS is not only compliant with ISO 14001 but also with local laws. This local expertise can save you considerable time and potential compliance issues down the line.

3. Tailored Approach, Not a One-Size-Fits-All Solution: Every organization is unique, with its own environmental impacts, operational processes, and business objectives. A good consultant will not offer a generic template but will instead take the time to understand your specific context. They should be able to design and implement an EMS that is tailored to your organization's size, industry, and environmental risks, ensuring it is practical, effective, and truly adds value.

4. Comprehensive Service Offering: Consider whether the consultant offers a full spectrum of services, from initial gap analysis and documentation development to employee training, internal audit support, and assistance during the certification audit. A holistic approach ensures a seamless and efficient certification journey.

5. Strong Communication and Collaborative Style: The certification process is a collaborative effort. Choose a consultant who communicates clearly, openly, and proactively. They should be able to explain complex concepts in an understandable way and work effectively with your internal teams. A consultant who fosters a strong working relationship will make the entire process more efficient and less stressful.

6. Post-Certification Support: ISO 14001 is an ongoing commitment. Ask if the consultant offers post-certification support, such as assistance with annual reviews, internal audits, or maintaining compliance. A long-term partnership can ensure your EMS continues to evolve and improve.

7. Cost-Effectiveness and Transparency: While cost shouldn't be the sole deciding factor, it's important to get a clear and transparent breakdown of fees. Be wary of consultants who offer significantly lower prices without clear justifications. A reputable consultant will provide a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, deliverables, and associated costs.

How an IMS Can Save Time, Cost & Effort in ISO Management

In today’s competitive business landscape, managing multiple ISO standards—such as ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety)—can be complex, time-consuming, and resource-intensive. But what if you could streamline your compliance processes, reduce costs, and boost overall efficiency?

This is where an Integrated Management System (IMS) becomes a game-changer.

What is an Integrated Management System (IMS)?

An Integrated Management System is a unified framework that combines two or more ISO standards into a single, coherent system. Instead of running multiple parallel systems, IMS allows businesses to manage all their compliance obligations through one set of policies, processes, and objectives.

For example, you can integrate:

ISO 9001 ��� Quality Management

ISO 14001 – Environmental Management

ISO 45001 – Occupational Health & Safety Management

How IMS Saves Time in ISO Management

Time is one of the most valuable business resources. IMS can significantly reduce duplication of tasks and streamline compliance activities:

✅ Centralized Documentation

You don’t need separate manuals and records for each standard. One documented system covers all.

✅ Combined Audits

Instead of separate internal and external audits for each ISO, integrated audits reduce audit frequency and preparation time.

✅ Unified Training & Meetings

Conduct one management review meeting, one internal audit, and one training session covering all systems.

✅ Faster Decision-Making

With all data and KPIs available in one dashboard, leadership can make informed decisions faster.

How IMS Helps Reduce Cost

Implementing and maintaining multiple ISO systems can be expensive. IMS significantly cuts down both direct and hidden costs:

🔹 Lower Audit & Certification Costs

Integrated external audits are more efficient, reducing certification body costs.

🔹 Reduced Administrative Burden

Less paperwork, fewer templates, and unified policies minimize man-hours and overheads.

🔹 Optimized Resource Utilization

Staff can focus on value-adding tasks instead of juggling multiple systems.

🔹 Minimal Compliance Risk

With standardized processes, the chances of non-conformities are reduced, saving costs associated with penalties or rework.

How IMS Reduces Operational Effort

IMS leads to a more streamlined, efficient, and resilient organization:

✅ Aligned Objectives Across Standards

Your quality, safety, and environmental goals are aligned under one strategy.

✅ Better Risk Management

A holistic view of organizational risks improves mitigation planning and reduces disruption.

✅ Consistent Process Improvement

Cross-functional teams work more efficiently under a single process map, improving productivity.

✅ Improved Communication & Culture

When everyone works toward shared goals, employee engagement and accountability increase.

Real Business Benefits of IMS

Organizations that implement IMS experience:

Up to 30% faster audit completion

20–40% reduction in document preparation time

Cost savings of up to 25% on ISO-related activities

Increased customer confidence and stakeholder trust

How do the ISO consultants improve the information security management system?

Why do companies often need professional support from ISO consultants? The common reason to hire these experts is to achieve compliance by minimizing system errors. To accomplish an ISO standard, companies need clear guidance on the process of meeting the ISO requirements. Also, a professional conduct of internal audit and readiness reviews is necessary. When it comes to improving the information security management system, the ISO 27001 standard comes to mind. To accomplish compliance, the existing system flaws should be reduced. ISO consultants take responsibility to ensure zero non-conformity. The following blog speaks on their role in improving the data security management operations.

How do the ISO consultants work on system modification for ISO 27001?

1. Initial Gap Assessment - They evaluate your current information security practices against ISO 27001 requirements. This helps to identify missing or weak controls. Gap analysis is necessary to spot compliance risks and mitigate them. The professional consultants prioritize actions based on threats and business needs, which they have determined.

2. Create a Roadmap to Certification - They develop a custom implementation plan with a timeline, milestones, and roles and responsibilities. This turns ISO 27001 into a manageable project, not an overwhelming checklist.

3. Design or Strengthen the ISMS - Consultants help build a structured ISMS that includes policies and procedures (information security, access control, asset management), risk assessment and treatment plans, and security controls aligned with Annexe A (now aligned with ISO 27002:2022)

4. Implement Security Controls - They help you apply controls like encryption and access control, backup and recovery, physical security, awareness training, and supplier risk management. All tailored according to an organization’s size, tech, and risk level.

5. Document Everything Properly - ISO requires documentation for better decision-making. A consultant helps to ensure that all required policies, records, and logs are present. They also check if everything is formatted and maintained correctly. They also reduce any chance of over-documenting, as that is time and budget-consuming.

6. Support with Internal Audits & Monitoring - Consultants either train your team or perform internal audits, corrective actions, and help set up KPIS and metrics to monitor security performance.

7. Train Your Team - The professional consultants determine whether the employees and other stakeholders understand and value the standard or not. Hence, they often suggest training. They provide information security awareness training, risk mitigationor process-specific sessions, and most importantly, executive briefings to build a security culture.

8. Prep for Certification - Finally, the consultants help their clients with a pre-audit checklist, certification body selection, and fixing non-conformities throughmock audits. The consultants even support their clients during the actual audit to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Things to remember while contacting consultant professionals?

Before contacting ISO consulting professionals for achieving success with certification, companies often make the mistake of making decisions in haste. An ISO consultant for information security management systems should have enough experience and relevant industry knowledge to conduct each phase of a certification. A minimum of 5 years of experience in the field, coupled with certifications in project management and audit, would be necessary. Top Qualities that you must consider for hiring a consulting expert - 

Proven experience with ISO/IEC 27001:2022

Strong background in IT security, risk assessment, and controls implementation

Familiarity with NIST, SOC 2, or GDPR (if relevant)

Ability to help with ISMS implementation, documentation, training, and internal audit prep

Certified ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor

Before hiring professionals, make sure you ask them about their experience and check their portfolio.

Why Real-Time Inventory Tracking is Essential for Modern Business Success

In today's hyper-competitive marketplace, businesses must embrace tools that optimize operational workflows while enhancing responsiveness. An Inventory Management System (IMS) with real-time inventory tracking capabilities is no longer a luxury—it's a strategic necessity. Real-time visibility into stock movement not only mitigates the risk of stockouts and overstocking but also strengthens the supply chain and drives profitability.

The Critical Need for Real-Time Inventory Tracking

Manual inventory methods, spreadsheets, and periodic stocktaking are outdated practices that often lead to errors, delays, and misinformed decisions. In contrast, real-time inventory tracking automates stock monitoring by continuously updating inventory levels as goods are received, moved, or sold. This dynamic system ensures that businesses always have an accurate snapshot of their inventory, empowering them to make informed decisions at lightning speed.

The agility afforded by real-time tracking is essential for businesses dealing with fast-moving goods, omnichannel retail, and complex logistics. It allows teams to forecast demand, optimize reordering, and minimize the holding cost of inventory. Moreover, with precise data at their fingertips, companies can swiftly identify discrepancies and prevent costly inventory shrinkage.

Key Components of a Real-Time Inventory Management System

A robust real-time IMS is an integrated solution that unifies multiple functions across procurement, warehousing, order fulfillment, and sales. Core components include:

Barcode Scanning and RFID: Automated identification technologies allow for accurate tracking of product movement throughout the supply chain.

Cloud-Based Software: Enables seamless access to inventory data across locations and departments, ensuring transparency and cross-functional collaboration.

Analytics and Reporting Tools: Provide actionable insights into stock turnover rates, deadstock, seasonal demand trends, and supplier performance.

Inventory Alerts and Automation: Customizable notifications signal low stock levels or abnormal activity, prompting immediate action.

Enhancing Business Efficiency Through Integration

An advanced IMS integrates effortlessly with eCommerce platforms, ERP systems, and point-of-sale (POS) software. This synergy eliminates data silos, accelerates order processing, and supports omnichannel operations. When orders are placed, the system automatically adjusts inventory levels, notifies warehouse staff, and updates financial records—without human intervention.

The real-time nature of the system enables just-in-time (JIT) inventory practices, where businesses hold minimal stock while fulfilling orders efficiently. JIT strategies reduce carrying costs and free up capital for other operational needs. This lean approach is especially beneficial for small and mid-sized enterprises looking to scale without bloated inventories.

The Role of Inventory Management Services

Adopting a sophisticated IMS is only part of the equation. Businesses must also invest in specialized inventory management services to maximize the system’s potential. These services include strategic consulting, process audits, software implementation, and ongoing support.

Partnering with a provider of inventory management services ensures that the system is customized to the unique needs of the business. Experts analyze inventory flow, identify inefficiencies, and design scalable solutions tailored to current and future growth. Additionally, they offer training programs that empower staff to use the system effectively, minimizing errors and enhancing productivity.

Furthermore, outsourced inventory management services offer real-time monitoring and analytics support, helping businesses track KPIs and continuously improve inventory strategies. This proactive approach ensures long-term sustainability and competitive edge.

Benefits of Real-Time Inventory Tracking

The advantages of real-time inventory tracking are multifaceted:

Enhanced Accuracy: Reduces data entry errors and provides precise inventory counts at all times.

Improved Customer Satisfaction: Prevents stockouts and backorders, enabling timely deliveries and better service.

Cost Reduction: Eliminates excess inventory and associated storage costs.
