United States and International businesses who manufacture and distribute into a global economy are facing new conditions which challenge not only their reputation and prosperity but threaten their very ability to sustain. These conditions include new comprehensive ways of viewing your place in the eco system, an emerging consumer population with new views on which products and businesses they will choose to support - - or boycott, and new teeth in regulations such as REACH which have the potential to slam the door on your product distribution capabilities in early 2009.
The GoodBye Chain Group and Quantum Compliance Systems announce the formation of the Green EcoSystems Group (GESG). GESG provides a proprietary People, Process and Tools approach that is second to none. Pioneers in product environmental compliance, we know that leadership in the executive suite and the field are key to successfully meeting today’s and the future mandates of environmental regulations and, where applicable, the law. With the right combinations of people, process and tools, organizations can succeed in meeting all environmental dictates. GESG is uniquely equipped to define, explain and assess an emerging comprehensive view of the life cycle of materials from their extraction from the earth to their ultimate disposal and return, as illustrated below:  What this illustration identifies is that, throughout this eco system flow, there are opportunities to improve profitability through reduced life cycle cost of ownership, enhance ecological performance, reduce energy consumption and take the high ground in terms of ecological reputation (GREEN) in the eyes of an increasingly informed and concerned consuming and regulating public. Failing to achieve these benefits is not just a loss of opportunity - - it may result in the loss of markets and even the right to continue in business. |

REACH |
|
|
|
Driven by proactive European Union regulatory mindsets, regulations are requiring affirmative registration as a condition for shipping and selling manufactured products. A current “ticking clock” is represented by REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals). This requires pre-registration by 12-1-08 which earns an 18 month “grace period” during which manufacturers provide rigorous compliance demonstration. Most companies have not met those pre registration requirements, and will face a requirement to prove compliance in 2009 - - with no grace period. This REACH regulation alone could bring an exporting manufacturer to its virtual knees, and it is just the tip of a regulatory iceberg which is going to require new attention at the top of your company’s decision pyramid - - no longer “just” an environmental department problem. |
