The Sustainable Advantage for Small and Diverse Business 

Currently, anyone can claim to be a green business, but a SEMS™ Certified supplier is equipped to deal with environmental,  social and profitability issues. The company can produce training credentials, a sustainability plan with reduction goals and strategies, as well as independent third-party verification that sustainable policies and practices are functional and not just self proclamations.

Participating companies move along a sustainability continuum of continuous improvements. This is a cost-efficient solution to acquire sustainability training, technical assistance and sustainable business certification. Click below to see how the SEMS™ Certification program works.
