How BlueMap Works

When gathering information, BlueMap strives to create the smallest possible interruption to our client's operation. Here is how our process works:

We begin by conducting an on-site walk through of your facility and operations. This usually takes a few hours. During our walk through, we like to speak with employees in different departments to get an overall feel for your business.

Once we have identified all your current sustainable practices, we create an internal gap analysis comparing what you are doing versus what needs to be implemented to qualify for being a certified California Green Business.

Then as our next step, we develop and create an application strategy, identifying appropriate products and services, which need to be implemented. We then use this information to draft the appropriate policy/signs/letters that you will need to post in your place of business.

Then we schedule a follow-up meeting where we explain these steps, deliver our report, and discuss how we can best help you implement the recommended changes.

Finally, our team will set up the kickoff inspection by your local green business certification group and you are on your way to becoming a fully certified California Green Business.
