ISO 14001 Examples of providing a strategy for determining the scope of an EMS

I see such variability in certification bodies’ policy about the scope of an environmental management system (EMS) that I recommend contacting your potential certification bodies in order to ask their opinion about your potential choices for the scope.

If this toy manufacturing company has a brand, perhaps it is better to certify all factories, in order to use that in the marketing effort. If this toy manufacturing company has production units working for cost-sensitive clients (B2B) and production units working for demanding clients (B2B) perhaps these latter units are candidates for having an EMS.
