Individual consulting and advice
In the workshops the participants in principle learn all the new aspects that - together with their experience and their knowledge of the company - are necessary to carry out a successful ECOPROFIT project. But the successful implementation of CP options is much more effective, if additional individual consulting is carried out.
Especially for the ECOPROFIT award, external support is a key factor. In addition, the work in the workshop can be done much more effectively, if it addresses the existing problems of the participating companies. Typical individual coaching/consulting activities are listed in the following:
o Support in data inventory and analysis (input/output).
o Support in setting up the environmental team (participation in meetings, selection of members, etc.).
o Consulting in planning and implementation of a new waste management system.
o Support in negotiations with disposal companies, classification of waste.
o Material flow analysis.
o Creation/transformation of process optimisation and minimisation options from other/same branches.
o Energy analysis, peak load measuring.
o Legal compliance-check together with local authorities.
o Setting up an eco-controlling system, introduction of environmental indicators.
o Support in test experiments.
o Search in literature and amongst suppliers.
o Environmental review for the Ecoprofit award.
