The Lean Sigma Six methodology could prove to be instrumental in carrying out campaigns from beginning to end, as poor planning and follow-through are often cited as reasons for failure. However, as a company that specializes in furniture asset management solutions, we understand that not every corporation has the bandwidth or the budget to strictly implement pricey, technologically-advanced sustainable initiatives. The simple act of refinishing, remanufacturing or reupholstering existing furniture as opposed to buying new has been proven to save up to 80% in budget costs and 90% in carbon emissions, so it is not hard to imagine the savings a total-building renovation could bring in just by making a few environmentally-friendly and cost-effective changes. We hope that more corporations will makes strides toward a greener, more sustainable future.
