PAS 99 : 2006 (INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM)
The Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 99 is the world's first Integrated Management System (IMS) requirements specification based on the six common requirements of the ISO guide 72 (a standard for writing management system standards). PAS has been prepared by the British Standards Institution in partnership with BSI Management Systems. PAS 99 is the framework through which the IMS is managed, and demonstrates that an organisation meets the requirements of multiple standards. It gives confidence to multiple stakeholders such as potential/existing customers, suppliers, communities, and investors.

The PAS 99 covers standards such as Quality Management System (ISO9001:2008), Environmental Management System (ISO 14001:2004), Occupational Health and Safety Management System (BS OHSAS 18001:2007), and Information Security Management Standard (ISO/IEX 270010, amongst others.

TCTS undertook the implementation of the Integrated Management System (IMS) covering. Quality Management System (ISO9001:2008), Environmental Management System (ISO 14001:2004) and Occupational Health and Safety Management System (BS OHSAS 18001:2007) in December 2008. The coverage included the delivery centres at Pune and Chennai and certification was achieved in May 2009.

Common requirements of these standards like risk assessment, identification of legal and other requirements etc, were addressed in an integrated manner, with only specific areas of each standard treated separately. A single document defined as the IMS manual was created, containing a single policy, common objectives, targets, and common procedures. Since there is a unified management review for all standards, it results in a holistic view of the various areas important to the organisation.
