Since its inception in 1999, eCAP® has been implemented for more than 100 clients throughout North America. When trying to determine the top benefits of eCAP, we asked our clients what they thought and four top benefits were mentioned: file organization, fixed cost structure, technical expertise and preservation of institutional knowledge.
Employees leave companies. Companies hire new employees. When an employee leaves a company that knowledge base, what is between their ears, leaves with them. To lessen the transition and the loss of knowledge that invariably happens during employee turnover is another key element of the eCAP® system. Documenting methodology, data collection points and emission factors is a function of eCAP®. The web page is a tool that allows the seamless flow of information from August Mack's environmental compliance consultants to our clients management staff. Process diagrams, report filings, worksheets, etc. are maintained on the Web site and provide a step by step historical record of facility inspections reporting functions and day-to-day corporate environmental compliance activities. This regimented effort reduces and eliminates that loss of knowledge that occurs when employees leave. It's a hallmark of the program.
