Audits
JUVAC provides its members with the opportunity to learn important information about the waste facilities that its members utilize. Facility audits are scheduled throughout the year so that member utilities can coordinate auditing duties. Once a facility has been audited the information gathered is then shared during at a tri-annual meeting. The information collected and shared among the members pertains to the vendor's location, processes layout, environmental management systems, and financial strength relative to other waste service providers. During an audit report presentation you can expect to learn about:
- Facility information: This will include a history of the facility, its size, specialties, staffing and overall conditions of the site.
- Management information: What the past and current ownership of the company looks like, a history of the company and their best practices.
- Financial information: How
the company is doing financially; Including Dun & Bradstreet
scores, stability, fiscal status, etc. Some facilities are
owned by public traded companies and other are privately
held. This information may vary based upon what is available
due to these factors.
This information is intended for use by the JUVAC members solely as supplement to each company's individual environmental risk management efforts associated with waste management. Each utility will decide independently what it will do with the information contained in this report.
Each presentation is very interactive and relies on the experiences that each member utility brings to the table as a subject matter professional in their respective field.
