Developing meaningful metrics and measuring performance is crucial to any business.  If you have nothing to benchmark against and no credible way to chart progress, you won't be able to identify problems or gauge the effectiveness of solutions.  This holds true whether your measuring financial performance, regulatory compliance, or sustainability indicators.

At Tim Goodman & Associates we know this to be true.  We also recognize that there is significant cross-over between financial, regulatory, and environmental indicators.

Tim Goodman & Associates can help your company select the appropriate metrics and tools for measuring your company's progress in sustainable materials management initiatives. Some of the services we provide in this area include:

• Traditional cost - benefit analysis
• Sustainability indexes for both internal operations and for supply chain vendors
• Material flow accounting/life cycle analysis
