Green Strategy

From our unique Eco-Impact Report to sustainable supply chain programs and long term clean technology implementation assistance, we tailor our services to each client's unique needs. These typically include:

1. Eco-Impact Report
2. Green Strategy Implementation Assistance
3. Clean Technology Consulting
4. Marketing and Branding Support
5. Employee Training
6. Environmentally Preferred Purchasing / Supply Chain / Social Compliance Programs
7. Lean and Green Analysis and Value Stream Mapping
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.

4. 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.

5. Employee Training
BlueMap offers half and full day training sessions for employees and executives. In these sessions, we:
  Present the implementation steps outlined in the Green Strategy Implementation Guide
  Provide motivational information about the purpose and effect of sustainability program
  Conduct employee engagement exercises.

We also answer any questions your employees may have about the program, and challenge participants to get personally involved in the sustainability effort.

6. 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.
