Consulting Services
By January 2011, all municipal drinking water utilities in Ontario must have a DWQMS-compliant management system implemented. The management system experts at Springboard are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and tools to empower water utility owners and operators as they undertake this challenging, but very rewarding project. 
 
When considering third party consulting services, it is important to realize that implementing the DWQMS is an internal project.  A successful implementation occurs when a company creates a plan based on the requirements of the Standard and follows that plan.
 
Many organizations do not have the experience in implementing such a system and are not sure how to proceed.  These organizations can follow the example of the Ministry of the Environment when designing the DWQMS and can leverage experts to help them create a customized system that meets the intent of the Standard.
 
When you want to learn a new trade or train for a marathon, you would likely register for a course, learn from experts, or find a mentor to provide guidance and support as you build your skills.  This is the role of our consultants.  We are experts in not only the water industry but in Quality Management System implementation.  This expertise will help ensure that your orgnaization's QMS, a system that will affect your business process forever, is implemented efficiently and effectively.
  
Springboard Management will empower any water utility with the knowledge and skills to ensure its system not only meets the requirements of the DWQMS, but is also customized to suit the organization's operations.  All Ontario water operators will have to "run the race", but we can help your organization perform at your best and finish as winners.
