The Results Group (TRG), a business-consulting firm, has developed a Green Enterprise Maturity Model to help companies reduce their carbon footprint. The tool allows users to assess "green" maturity relative to their industries, execute suitable initiatives and create a roadmap for achieving competitive advantage. The model enables TRG to characterize a company's readiness and capability to seize on new green opportunities. It profiles companies at four levels of maturity: Complier, Dabbler, Consistent Improver and Enterprise Optimizer. Based on a company's maturity and strategic objectives, TRG can recommend green initiatives that boost performance while reducing carbon footprint. Its model-based roadmap allows for innovation and performance improvement across all business operations, including supply chain, customer support and product development. The Green Enterprise Maturity model provides the framework for green maturity assessment and metrics definition, green initiative identification and prioritization, competitive advantage roadmap development, and supply chain and customer support carbon footprint analysis and optimization.
