Sustainability & Advisory

Transform your company’s sustainability vision into measurable impact with our specialized expertise. We guide businesses in building robust, transparent corporate sustainability programs—from carbon baselining and ongoing measurement to compliance and goal-setting.

Foundations for Corporate Sustainability

We deliver the essential building blocks for public-facing sustainability programs, including:

  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions Baseline

    • Establish an initial GHG inventory tailored to your industry, providing clarity on your emissions profile and a foundation for improvement.

  • Continuous Measurement & Verification

    • Develop data-driven strategies to monitor performance over time, track energy project outcomes, and validate progress towards sustainability goals.

  • Energy Project Effectiveness

    • Analyze past and anticipated energy efficiency and renewable energy projects to assess environmental and financial impact.

  • Benchmarking & Compliance

    • Navigate mandatory benchmarking requirements, ensuring your operations meet regulatory standards and align with best practices.

  • Proactive Goal Setting & Performance Tracking

    • Create programs that continuously identify improvement opportunities and benchmark actual performance against corporate sustainability targets.

Carbon Management

Successful sustainability execution requires expert understanding of calculation methods, standards, and practices. Our team helps you:

  • Select the correct baseline year and emissions calculation methodology (e.g., market-based vs. location-based)

  • Apply appropriate reporting frameworks for your sector and scale

  • Identify actionable strategies to lower your carbon footprint, tailored for retail, hospitality, financial services, data centers, and more
     

Scope of GHG Emission Reporting

  • Scope 1: Direct Emissions

    • Track fuel combustion on-site, fugitive refrigerant losses, and company vehicle emissions across all operational assets.

  • Scope 2: Indirect Electricity Emissions

    • Assess emissions from purchased electricity, considering both grid average (location-based) and supplier-specific (market-based) factors. Support goal-setting and supplier engagement.

  • Scope 3: Additional Value Chain Emissions

    • For companies looking beyond direct control, we offer Scope 3 emissions inventories to capture impacts across the supply chain and broader business ecosystem.

Decarbonization Audit

Prepare your business for a low-carbon future with our comprehensive Decarbonization Audit services. As the focus on reducing carbon emissions intensifies, companies must adapt their strategies not only to ensure efficient operations but to meet internal sustainability goals, regulatory requirements, and public expectations.

Achieve Long-Term Carbon Reduction Strategies

We help you develop actionable, long-term decarbonization plans customized to your facilities and business objectives. Through a detailed audit process, we deliver a clear roadmap and timeline for achieving your carbon reduction targets, positioning you as a leader in sustainability and operational excellence.

What’s Included in Our Decarbonization Audit?

Our audit framework helps your organization move toward net-zero emissions by systematically addressing the most impactful opportunities:

  • ASHRAE Level II Energy Audit
    Deep evaluation of your current energy use and system performance to establish a baseline and identify efficiency projects.

  • Comprehensive Equipment Evaluation
    Assessments to uncover low-cost energy-saving opportunities (with under 2-year ROI), capital projects, and multi-year initiatives with direct carbon impact.

  • Electrification Options
    Identify ways to replace fossil fuel-burning equipment with electric alternatives to directly reduce Scope 1 emissions.

  • Onsite Renewable Energy Analysis
    Explore solar photovoltaic (PV) and other renewables to supplement facility power and lower grid emissions.

  • Refrigerant Emissions Management
    Mitigate leaks and assess the switch to low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants to further shrink your carbon footprint.

  • Renewable Energy Procurement Opportunities
    Evaluate options to purchase renewable power, renewable energy credits (RECs), and carbon offsets for residual emissions.

  • Financial Impact Study
    Complete financial analysis covering initial costs, payback periods, and effects on future operating expenses.

  • Net-Zero Roadmap
    A custom timeline and project roadmap to guide you toward net-zero, with prioritized steps and performance metrics.

Flexible, Outcome-Driven Audits for GHG Reporting

Each decarbonization audit is tailored to your specific requirements and end goals, supporting enterprise-wide GHG compliance reporting and sustainability initiatives. Our team also offers turnkey project management, acting as your agent from initial planning through successful execution.

Water Efficiency

Rising water and sewer costs make water management a business-critical priority. Our Water Efficiency solutions help you understand, optimize, and reduce water consumption—typically achieving 20–35% savings for our clients.

Why Focus on Water Efficiency?

Water rates have increased more than 50% in the past decade, often outpacing other utility costs. Establishing a data-driven strategy for building an enterprise-wide water use is essential for managing expenses, conserving resources, and driving operational sustainability.

Water Efficiency Audits & Assessments

Our seasoned engineers perform comprehensive water audits that reveal high-impact opportunities across your properties. We offer three levels of assessments to fit your needs, with Tier 2—our most popular—offering deep analysis and actionable measures for meaningful reduction:

  • Evaluate consumption patterns, infrastructure inefficiencies, and hidden waste

  • Identify tailored projects for cost-effective savings and attractive paybacks

  • Prioritize solutions based on your operational goals, payback criteria, and water conservation targets

Measures Evaluated for Water Savings

When auditing and optimizing your water usage, we consider a full range of strategies, including:

  • Efficient cooling tower management and upgrades

  • Reverse osmosis improvements for process water

  • Rainwater harvesting solutions

  • Condensate reuse and recycling

  • Submetering to enhance monitoring and control

  • Plumbing fixture retrofits for reduced consumption

  • Optimization of dishwashers, ice machines, and swimming pools

  • Process water use review for industrial/commercial facilities

  • Infrastructure leak detection and remediation

Impact and Payback

Water efficiency is no longer just a green initiative—it’s an essential part of controlling utility spend as rates and regulatory pressures climb. Our solutions not only deliver significant consumption reductions but also offer attractive financial returns.
