ISO 9001 certification functions as an assessment and indicator of a quality management system within an organisation across
all industry sectors. An ISO 9001 certified organisation would have implemented quality management system requirements for
all areas of the business including facilities, people, training, services and equipment.

ISO 14001 sets out the criteria for an environmental management system. It does not state requirements for environmental
performance, but maps out a framework that a company or organization can follow to set up an effective environmental
management system. It can be used by any organization that wants to improve resource efficiency, reduce waste and drive
down costs. Using ISO14001 can provide assurance to company management and employees as well as external stakeholders
that environmental impact is being measured and improved. ISO 14001 can also be integrated with other management
functions and assists companies in meeting their environmental and economic goals.

The Green Mark Scheme was launched in January 2005 by the Building and Construction Authority of Singapore to steer the
construction industry in Singapore in the direction of environment-friendly buildings. It is essentially a benchmarking scheme
that incorporates global recognised best practices in environmental design and performance.

The NEA-SHA 3R Programme was launched on 1 July 2011 to help hotels achieve better waste management and to increase
waste recycling rates. The 3R (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) will help to conserve natural resources and reduce carbon footprint,
which in turn mitigates climate change. Hotels with sustainable waste management reduce costs through improvement of
resource use efficiency and reduction of wastages, thereby cutting down waste handling and disposal costs.
