Optimizing a sustainability program is an ongoing, iterative process to assure the initiative is responsive to fast moving developments in sustainability. During the Optimize phase, we work with our clients to address the following key questions:
  • How are we performing against our success metrics?
  • How do we reduce impediments that are holding us back?
  • How can we build and expand on what’s worked?
Our Optimize phase services include:

Tracking environmental performance

As with any other business function, developing and tracking a set of environmental metrics is critical to managing environmental initiatives and making sustained progress against the environmental agenda. Esty Environmental Partners helps companies quantify their environmental footprint, develop a set of environmental performance metrics, and set up systems for regular reporting.

Establishing an environmental advisory board

Environmental advisory boards comprising a mix of external environmental experts and stakeholders can provide critical outside perspective that ensures over-the-horizon issue spotting, advance warning of possible crises, and the ability to recognize fundamental changes to the business landscape. Esty Environmental Partners’ team will bring a world-leading base of experience and a far-reaching set of environmental contacts to bear in helping clients launch a successful advisory panel. We can assist in creating an advisory board for a company that will expand environmental awareness and sharpen initiatives.
