- Manage joint risk

- Focus on integration
It provides a consistent and structured approach to facilitate a focus on integration of collaborative working within operational procedures, processes and systems.

Why implement BS 11000
Every company wants to enhance its competitiveness and performance. At the same time, they want to add value for their customers. BS 11000 will help them do just that, by helping them to share knowledge, skills and resources to meet mutually defined objectives and deliver new and higher levels of value.
Relationship management plan
The Relationship Management Plan (RMP) is a key component of BS 11000. It establishes open, honest lines of communication between collaborators, as well as providing a framework to both document the development process and create a dynamic record as the collaborative programme evolves. Vital to a programmes success, the RMP evolves throughout the collaboration and ultimately acts as an agent to build trust.
BS 11000 will help an organisation:
- Identify how relationship management can help achieve its business objectives
- Evaluate the benefits of entering into a single or multiple partnerships
- Select the right partner to complement its objectives
- Build a joint approach based on mutual advantage
- Develop added value from the relationship
- Measure and maintain maximum benefit
- Develop and execute an exit strategy
