Environmental Management Project Descriptions
DPRA conducted a review of Environmental Management System implementation at three representative facilities for a multi-facility, distributor of scientific instruments, equipment and supplies. The assessment was conducted in order to establish a baseline for EMS implementation within U.S. facilities and to determine actions required to conform to ISO14001. DPRA prepared an Assessment of Environmental Management Systems report detailing strengths, weaknesses, recommendations and an Action Plan presenting actions to address gaps identified in the assessment phase.
DPRA completed a comprehensive Assessment of Environmental Management System Requirements in August 2002 for the Southwest Area of the U.S. Postal Service. The assessment aimed to review environmental systems as they currently relate to USPS organization, operations, and management approach, consistent with ISO14001. Strengths and weaknesses associated with existing environmental initiatives were identified in conjunction with recommendations to achieve conformance with ISO14001 and suggested performance measures to demonstrate appropriate implementation. DPRA developed Action Plans to assist the USPS with implementation of high priority recommendations. Ten Action Plans were provided to the USPS with each providing a methodology to address gaps identified during the EMS assessment to conform to ISO14001 and to ensure that organizational environmental goals and objectives are fulfilled. Action plans were presented in order of recommended priority for implementation.
