Efficiency Roadmap
|
45 Days to Cost Savings and a Leaner, Greener Business
|
The Efficiency Imperative
|
As businesses today face an increasingly challenging economy, many are finding that smart efficiency measures aren’t just “nice to have” —they are
critical to financial success.
GreenOrder can generate significant value by helping you answer these questions:
What can your company do to cut costs and, in the process, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other negative environmental impacts?
What should your company do if it isn’t certain where the most effective cost-savings can be found?
What should you do if you already have green initiatives but aren’t sure that you are achieving all that you can in terms of cost savings?

Identify Savings in Energy, Waste, Logistics and More
|
With the Efficiency Roadmap, GreenOrder conducts an independent, cross-functional assessment of your business to identify and prioritize quick wins that can be substantively implemented within the next 1-18 months. Energy efficiency is a core objective, but savings can also be found in the areas of water, waste management, sourcing, logistics, product design and packaging, and everyday employee behavior.
We work closely with a small group of leaders from your company using a sequenced, 45-day process. At the end, you will have a clear picture of the value your organization has not yet captured — and a set of action items to help you start seeing immediate results. |

How the Process Works
|
Pre-Engagement: Gather and organize supporting data
Provide your company with a checklist of data requests, including quantitative and qualitative information necessary to understand and investigate the business’s core impact areas.
|
 |
Days 1-15: Identify core opportunity areas
Look across your business’ operations and market-facing activities to identify the efficiency areas with the highest immediate savings potential (e.g., facilities, transportation, or product design), based on GreenOrder’s expertise and benchmarking against comparable organizations. Consider government or other incentives that can boost savings opportunities.
Deliverable: Identification of core opportunity areas
|
 |
Days 16-30: Develop savings strategies
Develop specific recommendations for how you can achieve savings in your key opportunity areas (based on ease of implementation and total savings potential). Consult functional experts within your organization to ensure that savings strategies are detailed, actionable, and appropriate.
Deliverable: Outline of top savings strategies within each opportunity
|
 |
Days 31-45: Finalize the Efficiency Roadmap
Create a Roadmap for executing on the savings strategies — to establish expectations, organize staff, and track progress. A key feature is a calculation of your anticipated savings and environmental impact in each opportunity area. This data can be used to engage board members, shareholders, employees, and other important stakeholders.
Deliverable: Savings roadmap with timeline, action items, milestones, and estimated impact/savings
