"We make your projects viable." First we determine what constitutes value to the Owner. Second, we define the key objectives and criteria for the Project.
At Viable Value Engineering we assess Projects and make recommendations to stakeholders that help them make informed choices benefiting the project. We then evaluate the program and verify and validate it meets those objectives. The next step is to present alternatives, analyze Life Cycle Costs and show the impact to construction and operational budgets. Value Engineering during the Planning Stage

Good morning! It has been a while since our last post, but the mission is not lost: after closing GenGreen I worked for Rumpke as the Recycling Representative for over 3 years. My job was to work with all of the commercial accounts, big and small, to help set up Recycling Programs!
Together we figured out:
-what was recyclable, how can we educate the staff
-how to encourage them to start utilizing the new recycling containers? -Where can the new containers go that is convenient to the employees using them daily and those responsible for emptying them?!
These programs usually SAVED the companies money (driving it to the landfill was more expensive than recycling it, so we reduced how big the trash container size was and/or reduced how often it was serviced!)
I'm happy to help you set up recycling at your work if: the owner/manager is open to the idea and your work generates recyclables (paper, cardboard, cans, bottles, glass jars, magazines, newspapers, cartons). I'm full of ideas and happy to offer suggestions....typically once it is set up correctly the first time, people quickly get in the habit and are happy to do it!
I did it over 200 times throughout Central Ohio, so I'm sure we can do it too!
