LiMSS Content Development Introduction The Global Teams of Experts (ToEs) or Global Functions (as applicable) define and document processes, procedures and operational/commercial/design standards which identify minimum requirements and best practice.
LiMSS Global Teams of Experts (ToEs) ToE members A Global Team of Experts typically include the following roles: A ToE leader nominated by the Head of Div./GBU/BA/GSF in cooperation with the RBUs Members representing the Divisions/GSF (in the case of Group standards) and/or the regional organisation and nominated by the GBU/BA/GSF in cooperation with the RBUs A Technical Writer A dedicated resource such as Subject Matter Expert (if needed)
Business Process Owners The Head of the Div./GBU/BA/CSF is responsible for the following: Appoint the ToE Sponsor Appoint the global Team of Experts (ToE) members together with the ToE Sponsor and RBUs Give the ToE the authority to decide global best practice Oversee progress of the ToE Provide senior management support and guidance to the ToE together with Group SHEQ Note: The use of global ToEs to create global standards is best practice. However, the Div./GBU/BA/CSF Head may use alternative methods for creating global standards where appropriate.
ToE Sponsor For every Global ToE a sponsor is appointed by the relevant GBU/GSF. The Sponsor should be a senior manager who is familiar with the ToEs field of activity and be a member of the respective organisation (business process). For regional ToEs the sponsor is appointed by the region. Sponsors play an important role in ensuring that the work of the ToE is aligned with HPO/business priorities, efficient, and that the resulting standards are accepted and implemented by the business. The Sponsor's role is to ensure that: LIMSS is accepted as the ultimate Management System for the Linde Group Content of the developed documents is accepted and implemented by the business within an appropriate timescale The financial and organisational impact to the business caused by new requirements is known, considered and agreed (if applicable) The resources (budget and manpower) are used efficiently ToE members get the necessary support and time for the ToE work Networks are in place to include all relevant businesses in the development Workload caused by implementation of standards is taken into consideration
IMS-02-17-GROUP LiMSS Organisation and Resources 1.12 August 2013 Copyright The Linde Group Distributed by a locally registered Linde company Page 11 of 21 Uncontrolled Copy - do not use after date of printing
Sponsors are responsible for the following: Promote LiMSS and the ToE process by: Demonstrating commitment to the LIMSS ToE process by opening/closing ToE meetings or joining teleconferences where possible Appointing ToE members and ensuring that the most appropriate people are chosen to represent the process Ensuring an expert network is in place into all parts of the organisation to support the ToE Publicly recognising the efforts of ToE members contributing to LIMSS development Mediating where significant differences of opinion exists within a ToE or between a ToE and the business Deliver LiMSS documents to agreed plan for their area of responsibility by: Ensuring that the ToE's work plan is approved and communicated Keeping abreast with the ToEs agenda Defining/approving priorities for development of standards Promote implementation of LiMSS documents by: Ensuring the ToE understands and communicates the impact of any new mandatory requirement (musts) Approving the scope and new 'minimum requirements' of any new standard Ensuring all relevant parties are included in the development, approval and roll out process either by ToE membership or via the network Promoting ToE outcomes at relevant operations or safety peer teams, e.g. MPG operations leadership team Ensuring appropriate change management (including notification to those who are responsible for or support implementation)
Role of the Global Teams of Experts (ToEs) Global ToEs are responsible for the following: Establish global minimum requirements for Lindes processes Review and document best practice Support improvement projects through the creation of operational procedures Provide a focal point for the business to: Evaluate improvements opportunities Participate as experts in major incident investigations Review incidents and identify trends to see if standards need to be written or changed Develop and maintain a Table of Contents for their material and ensure published material aligns with the Table of Contents Write standards, directives and alerts and ensure all published standards are correct. Ensure careful consideration is given to whether a statement is a mandatory requirement or a best practice (including a business assessment of the impact in all geographies) Identify the need for training materials required to support learning Identify competence assessment criteria to be included in the Learning Management Systems Identify key auditable areas and creating, reviewing and maintaining audit questions to be included in Audit Manager Decide if pilot sites are needed to ensure new standards are complete, understandable, workable and suitable

Role of the Global ToE Leader The Global ToE leader will: Chair and facilitate ToE meetings Provide plans for global standards development and report ToE progress to the Sponsor (Business Process Owner) Together with the appropriate organisational unit, nominate corresponding members from GBU/BA/RBU (and Linde Engineering and GIST if appropriate) when there is no ToE member representing these organisational units, to ensure all relevant parts of Linde are represented when preparing drafts, reviewing final drafts, etc. Ensure that all global standards that might influence the quality of medical gases or Healthcares validation of equipment, processes or systems are signed off by GBU Healthcare/Global Quality & Regulatory Affairs as Quality Reviewer Ensure that all proposed changes of Linde Gas minimum requirements for the design of Tonnage plants (ASU, CO2 and HyCO) are communicated to the Linde Gas, Head of GTO Global Operations Determine if a time frame for the implementation of a standard is required, if so ensure this is stated in the Scope Manage the work of Subject Matter Expert (if available) and Technical Writer Provide input into the Global ToE budget and work within the agreed budget Communicate ToE meeting agenda and minutes to the Sponsor Ensure standards and attachments are approved by the Sponsor prior to being published Ensure that the new standard is communicated according to IMS-05-06 : Creation of LiMSS Documents.
The role of ToE members Members of the Global ToEs: Provide source material and content expertise including examples of best practice to the ToE Report related incidents and the results of incident investigations in the BUs they represent to the ToE Review publications, within the scope of the ToE, issued by legislative bodies, international standardisation organisations and gas associations (e.g. CGA and EIGA) and consider needed actions in Linde Review draft documents within the agreed time frame Raise awareness of LiMSS and the ToEs activities in their area of responsibility An important role of those team members representing the RBUs is to ensure that all RBUs have input into the work of the ToE, both for content and to ensure the impact of implementation is considered. Ensuring that all RBUs are given the opportunity to input into the work of the ToE will: Avoid unreasonable or unexpected demands on the regional business Facilitate local implementation
The role of the Subject Matter Expert (SME) A SME can be appointed by the GBU/BA/CSF Head and should be able to allocate the time required for ToE work. The SME will typically: Collect and review source content material such as legacy material, gas association publications, etc. Liaise with ToE members regarding technical/content issues Develop new content together with the Technical Writer
