During a crisis, decision-makers who can easily access the right information at the right time and share it with one another can save more lives and minimize damage to the environment. Throughout history, however, leaders have been forced to make those life-or-death decisions based on inadequate information. It was not until the 1980s that innovative emergency experts brought the latest computer technologies to bear on the challenges of crisis management.Since then, thousands of crisis managers have embraced these new systems, which have proven their value repeatedly during actual disasters. In the past five years, the pace of implementation has accelerated dramatically as a new generation of systems that are easier to use, more powerful and more affordable have been introduced.

Environmental compliance, deploying Environmental Management System and the need to improve and report environmental performance have become important factors in the decision making process of organizations. Environmental aspects should be managed in the same way that a company or public entity manages its core business functions and links the environmental concerns with economic considerations. Every organization is required to recognize the need for a proactive approach to environmental issues, by emphasizing opportunities such as increased employee awareness and operational changes to improve environmental performance. Over time, the systematic identification and correction of system deficiencies lead to better environmental, and overall organizational, performance.

Organizations are increasingly required to take a systematic and proactive approach to managing health and safety, environmental and quality risks. They can succeed through designing and implementing robust management systems that provide clear policies, procedures for planning and carrying out risk assessment and control, and suitable arrangements for monitoring and reviewing performance, leading to continual improvement. Integrating separate management systems for health and safety, environment and quality can offer substantial improvements in business efficiency and quality of products and services, as well as in health and safety and environmental performance.

The overall goal of performance management is to ensure that the organization and all of its subsystems (processes, departments, teams, employees, etc.) are working together in an optimum fashion to achieve the results desired by the organization. Achieving the overall goal requires several ongoing activities, including identification and prioritization of desired results, establishing means to measure progress toward those results, setting standards for assessing how well results were achieved, tracking and measuring progress toward results, exchanging ongoing feedback among those participants working to achieve results, periodically reviewing progress, reinforcing activities that achieve results and intervening to improve progress where needed. Note that results themselves are also measures.
