Because data + design + differentiation = market success

Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) are important diagnostic tools to help you understand your products’ environmental impacts. And there are many firms – and many tools – available to help you do them.

But the ERM LCA goes beyond simply documenting your products’ impacts. The ERM approach, honed by experts performing hundreds of LCAs over the last two decades, also includes:

  1. Development of a custom model to assess the unique aspects of your product’s supply chain;
  2. A roadmap for reducing the impacts that are identified during the assessment;
  3. An optional publicly facing Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) verified by the program operator;
  4. A price elasticity study (so you can understand the improved price point your product can capture with new environmental benefits attached to its value proposition);
  5. An understanding of the competitive market position that
    a newly designed, lower-impact product can own;
  6. Corporate sustainability experts to help you leverage your data to meet sustainability reporting obligations; and
  7. A directional narrative for owning the new market position.
