Sustainability Program Development
EI’s sustainability experts will work with you to develop a sustainability strategy in alignment with your business goals. Starting with an understanding of key drivers and opportunities specific to your business, EI will guide you through the process of setting a clear vision and set of goals, development of a well-defined strategy and implementation of measurable sustainability improvements.

Sustainability Audits
Effective sustainability initiatives begin with a clear understanding of how your business interacts with the environment. EI provides comprehensive sustainability audits that can be applied to your entire site or to a select process. After assessing resource uses, waste generation and purchasing practices, EI will deliver a baseline sustainability report that articulately summarizes key points of environmental impact and provides recommendations for improvement.

Waste Minimization
Waste minimization is a cornerstone of environmentally responsible enterprises. Whether you are looking to improve your recycling program, go landfill-free or lower the toxicity and persistence of wastes generated at your site, EI’s team of experienced professionals will provide the support necessary to ensure you reach your goals.

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and Sustainable Product Design
For companies looking to improve the environmental performance of a specific product or product line, EI provides LCA services and support. Our experienced staff can complete or support completion of a product LCA and provide guidance on how to leverage the findings to reduce your environmental footprint. Our team has extensive training and operational experience with SimaPro and the ISO Standards 14040 and 14044.

Energy Assessments
Considering that energy and telecommunications costs can make up as much as 25 percent of an organization’s overall operating budget – utility cost reductions, even the most modest ones, can significantly improve profitability. As energy costs continue to rise, EI is committed to managing those expenses and their associated environmental impacts. EI’s custom tailored assessments will help you pursue economical energy improvements that are environmentally responsible and provide a tangible return on investment.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Reporting
CSR reporting is increasingly tied to the credibility and long-term viability of businesses. With a working knowledge of The Global Reporting Institute (GRI) guidelines, the EI team will support you in authentically reporting Company CSR performance, focusing on those areas most relevant to your operations.
