CPI Program Implementation ESP can provide the resources necessary to establish a continuous process improvement program. The CPI program will be designed around your company's activities so improvements that have been identified can be implemented. ESP can provide initial awareness training of what CPI is, how it is implemented and how it will improve the processes, reduce bottlenecks, and add value by reducing waste. More detailed training on some of the CPI techniques and how your company wants to apply CPI can be the first step to your people identifying and applying continuous process improvement themselves. This will lead to a company culture change and incorporation of CPI into daily activities.
Pollution prevention is the technique of eliminating waste generation before it occurs.
Any of your resources, materials or people, which are not used to make your product is a waste. Although P2 was primarily initiated as a method to reduce hazardous and regulated waste, the techniques can also be applied to eliminate unnecessary or wasted actions. Experience has shown that in almost every case, changes that eliminate waste are cost effective and can significantly help companies improve the company's bottom line. Identification of Waste Sources ESP, applying processes and operations knowledge to identify waste generation, uses techniques similar to the CPI techniques to identify changes and provide a plan to eliminate or reduce the waste generated. The identification of wastes is not limited to regulated or hazardous wastes but can include all areas of waste generation applicable.
