1.
Eco-Impact Report
Our Eco-Impact Report is a benchmark of a client's current environmental impact across several key metrics, including energy efficiency, water conservation, waste management, carbon footprint analysis, and industry-specific operations. We conduct a thorough audit of each client's facility, purchasing patterns, waste streams, and energy use. From this, we identify opportunities to deploy clean or green technologies as well as the potential for savings.
2.
Green Strategy Implementation Assistance
After delivering our Eco-Impact Report, BlueMap can help you implement the green strategies you choose to pursue. Our assistance includes training staff on new practices and technology, brokering clean tech acquisitions, and working with government agencies and utilities to obtain all the rebates you are entitled to. We then come back each six weeks to meet with your Green Team to help keep the momentum up to ensure you capture all potential savings from saving the planet.
3.
Clean Technology Consulting
With the complex range of clean technologies available today, our team can save you time by independently researching the costs, financing options, and payoffs of each. For example we can help you obtain bids for:
• Solar, wind, or geothermal installations
•
Energy management systems and building management
software
•
Wastewater treatment and methane capture systems
•
Energy efficiency upgrades, including lighting retrofits
and HVAC optimization
•
Fuel cell and co-generation installations
•
Bio diesel procurement
•
Fleet and warehouse logistics systems
•
Intermodal shipping options, including transport by
rail.

Marketing and Branding Support
The first step in successfully marketing a company's
sustainability program is to identify the most effective
means to attain the greatest environmental impact. The
next step is telling your green story to the world in
an authentic way. The marketing and branding experts
on our team translate the compiled research data into
marketing-ready material that sends a powerful message
to your clients and partners.

Environmentally Preferred Purchasing / Social Compliance
Programs
BlueMap has found that many businesses often do not
have a complete understanding of their purchasing patterns.
Bringing clarity to spending is one of the first steps
to eliminating waste.
• Do you
know the best cost-effective local alternatives for
your purchasing needs?
• Do you source or sell products
from overseas factories?
• Do you have transparency
into the human rights conditions, product safety, product
quality assurance, or chemicals used within your supply
chain?
BlueMap works tirelessly to dispel the myth that buying
green costs more. We have developed relationships with
a wide range of green product vendors, so that switching
from your typical supplier to a green supplier can actually
be cheaper and offer increased quality. After we quantify
your current consumption levels, we will create a green
purchasing guide showing who you can buy from and at
what price. We can also develop transparent social compliance
programs for your suppliers, agents, or overseas manufacturer.
We understand how to build and implement sustainable
supply chain programs which help our clients manage
risk and decrease costs significantly.
7.
Lean and Green Analysis and Value Stream Mapping
Lean tools are incomparable at reducing waste and putting
businesses on the path to sustainability. We offer consulting
services in implementing Lean manufacturing and Toyota
Motor Company's leadership principles in product and
service environments to effectively reduce waste and
improve performance. We take a two pronged approach
working with front line staff and managers on a specific
waste reduction effort that builds green principles
into the work through practice, and senior management
learning which allows them to drive cultural change
forward. The end result is an energized, engaged, and
committed workforce, significant operational cost savings,
and a springboard toward profitable sustainability through
targeted waste reduction, performance improvement, and
value stream process mapping.
