Client Reviews on Carbon and Waste Audits

The first month of engagement focused on establishing baseline emission factors for our natural gas and diesel consumption. The team provided a clear breakdown of Scope 1 and 2 sources, which helped us align with federal reporting guidelines. The initial data collection template was straightforward, though we had to adjust the sampling frequency for process emissions. Overall, the framework is solid and the documentation requirements are well explained.

Communication during the setup phase was handled through weekly calls and a shared project log. The initial waste characterization plan covered the main hazardous streams, but the sampling protocol for volatile organic compounds required a revision after the first site visit. The team responded within two business days with an updated procedure. The audit checklist for provincial compliance is comprehensive, though the manifest tracking could be more granular for mixed waste loads.

Returning for a second engagement after the initial ISO 50001 gap analysis. This time we focused on implementing the energy performance indicators and internal audit schedule. The previous recommendations on metering infrastructure were followed, and the new data logging system now feeds directly into the energy review. The team provided updated documentation templates that match the SCC accreditation requirements. The process felt consistent and the handoff between phases was smooth.
