description The ISO 14001 standard is designed to assist organisations in implementing and maintaining Environmental Management System (EMS), verifying conformance with their environmental policies and objectives and demonstrating such conformance to other organisations via certification by a third party or via self-declaration. It is applicable to organisations of all sizes, types and locations and will be used to improve environmental performance by integrating designated EMS with existing management policies and procedures. The main objectives of Expert System for ISO 14001 (ESISO) are to help the end-users in gaining information on ISO 14000 and EMS and to create EMS documentation as well as to help the application process of the company. CLIPS version 6.04 was chosen for logic based knowledge representation in implementing ESISO. The results show that the reliability of the Expert System (ES) was able to help the end-users to create EMS documentation and to obtain information on ISO 14000 as well as EMS.
