Enviro-Stewards’ Sustainability Approach
Since our founding in 2000, Enviro-Stewards has been committed to developing sustainability strategies that are as economically viable as they are ecologically responsible. We start by understanding the specific environmental challenges and business goals of each client, enabling us to tailor solutions that are both effective and sustainable.
Our Six-Step Process
Step 1: Discovery & Scope
We begin by meeting with an assembled team of stakeholders from your organization. These stakeholders are typically from areas including upper management, engineering, QA/QC, plant supervision, and operators — the people who know your facility the best.
Step 2: Onboarding & Kickoff
We complete detailed systematic logging of utility consuming and waste generating processes to collect minute-by-minute data, prioritize alternatives, and verifiably quantify potential savings. This audit process typically takes two weeks.
Step 3: Assess & Monitor
We analyze the data and prepare material and energy balances to identify root causes to explain why waste is being generated in the first place. Then we focus on determining how the waste can be reduced or eliminated. We will prioritize the significant contributors to the problem you are trying to solve with corresponding data.
Step 4: Find Opportunities
We will develop a design and technical analysis of practical conservation alternatives that respect Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), food safety practices, and other appropriate protocols for your industry. We will define opportunities to adjust or reframe processes where improvement can be made.
Step 5: Present Findings
We will present comprehensive solutions to your stakeholders and develop the economic analysis, based on the proposed solutions and measurements logged at your facility. Finally, we will collaborate with your team to establish an implementation plan. Implementation plans are categorized and quantified to provide you with clear, feasible, practical, and measurable solutions.
Step 6: Implement & Monitor
The payback period of our opportunities averages 10.5 months. We will collaborate with your team to expedite implementation with our support. Implementation may include engineering design, funding applications, project management, commissioning, and post-implementation verification work.
Our team's approach to sustainability will help you facilitate results that exceed expectations.
Commitment to Sustainability
As a Certified B Corporation, we are recognized for our leadership in sustainability. We are committed to practices that not only benefit the environment but also support our clients and communities in making a positive impact.
