Corporate Sustainability
Our Approach:
Steven Winter Associates, Inc. (SWA) assists corporate clients to achieve increased sustainability practices and environmental footprint reduction through facility and policy benchmarking and analysis. A focused effort of planning, auditing, analysis, and ultimately implementation of more efficient systems can result in significant cost and resource savings which can be realized immediately and yield benefits over the long-term. This process of analysis draws attention to its business management practices, systems and policies, which when altered can reduce consumption of materials, generate new recycling opportunities, decrease energy, waste and water, and cut costs. In addition, the process often results in cross-collaboration between employees who interact outside of their own departments in order to develop environmental footprint reduction practices, which can result in productive partnerships.
The key audit areas include the following:
- Energy and water consumption
- Waste prevention and recycling
- Travel and transportation
- Operations and maintenance
- Human resources
- Information technology
- Sustainable sourcing
- Financing
- Building and remodeling
In addition, SWA analyzes the impacts of the products and services companies provide, and seeks out environmental footprint reduction strategies. For a free consultation, please fill out form and email it to cs@swinter.com.
