What is Consulting for Sustainable Manufacturing?
Leading manufacturers have always embraced sustainability through waste reduction, lean manufacturing principles, and process optimization.
Meeting today’s enhanced ESG and sustainability demands from buyers, retailers, and consumers requires a new vocabulary, new metrics, and in many cases some form of complex organizational change. Sustainable manufacturing is much more than just resource efficiency or waste reduction in the plant. It encompasses a company’s extended environmental and social impact and how it is managed throughout the business and value chain.
Sustainability planning challenges we help manufacturers overcome:

Our Hands-On Approach to Sustainable Manufacturing Consulting
Sustainable Manufacturing Consulting Case Study: Regeneron
Regeneron, a leading biopharmaceutical company, sought an independent advisor with subject matter experts to provide scientifically rigorous recommendations for ESG performance in operations, supply chain and manufacturing. Third Partners led a 360° environmental risk and opportunity assessment consisting of discovery and analysis. We then led on-site workshops that engaged over 50 leaders in Ireland and New York to audit the company’s environmental practices in operations, supply chain and manufacturing. Based on the assessment, Regeneron set new ESG goals, established new policies, adopted new technologies and governance mechanisms to take programs to the next level. Regeneron reflected the impacts of this work in their Responsibility Report.
