In this episode I am joined by Nick Evans of Precision Partners. Nick and I discuss how Precision Partners is offering environmental compliance as a service (ECAAS). We discuss broadly the concept of ECAAS and how it can be applied as a tool in the management of environmental programs and risk, specifically to air pollution control systems and outlet emissions rates. We also discuss the &#34;as a service&#34; model and where it has been applied to other areas within manufacturing (e.g., energy as a service). Finally, we discuss those situations where ECAAS is most appropriate and when it might not be a fit and finish up looking to the future of the service concept.
