Tools Support and Strategy
Cawthron’s Sustainable Business Group provides core services for helping businesses on the sustainability pathway. Our main services include:

Operational auditing and certification

Cawthron staff can help you to identify, assess and rank how your business interacts with the environment. This information can be reported as triple-bottom line reports, or can be used for internal management or achieving certifications (organics, ISO 14000, MSC etc). Cawthron can provide environmental auditing, footprint analysis, input-output analysis and life-cycle analysis.

New development sustainability assessments

We assist businesses with developments that rely on natural resources or require resource consents. Cawthron can help both in the development planning and permitting processes by providing expert impact assessment services and overview sustainability assessments.

Strategies for Sustainable Business

Many businesses get trapped in the reactive ‘compliance cycle’ resulting in a prolonged series of compliance ‘crises’. A key component of long-term company value is the ability to be pro-active about environmental management. Cawthron can assist this process by providing specialist advice and tools including certified Environmental Management Systems and Adaptive Management Plans.
