I was talking with a plant leader recently. Good operation. No major issues. At one point, he mentioned that most EHS items run through one person. So I asked, what happens when that person is out? There was a pause. Not a long one. Just enough. You could tell. How much of your EHS program depends on one or two people being available? If that answer isn’t clear, it’s probably worth a closer look.

Some of the Baron team saying "Nice job, LL Bean!"

Most General Managers will tell you the same thing: EHS feels like a never-ending hassle. First comes the struggle to hire and keep the right EHS Manager. Then comes the patchwork of consultants, reports, audits… and it never stops. Baron used to add to that noise, offering dozens of one-off projects like every other EHS consultant. But that approach doesn’t solve the big picture. It’s not sustainable. So we changed the model. Today, it’s simple: a fixed-price, team-based sol

Wouldn’t it be nice if your EHS program ran as smoothly -- AND AS CONFIDENTLY -- as Tesla’s Full Self-Driving? No overcorrecting. No last second scrambling. Just steady progress with the system handling the complexity behind the scenes. While the car handled the road, I recorded this quick story: - One client had a single bad formula in their RPPR spreadsheet. - We caught it. We aligned the NOx and nitric acid usage as the permit required. - We likely cut a week-long DEP audi

Is your EHS setup built to last? Consider this recent example related to NOx and RPPR.

Nine minutes in, the Teams meeting went silent. The EHS lead of a $1 billion coatings maker thanked us—then hung up when she heard we “only” cover New Jersey, New York, and Eastern PA. Her edict? “One national firm for every North American site.” This concept may look flawless in a PowerPoint. But on the production floor it often means parachute consultants, weeks between visits, and leaves site managers without the EHS support they need. We took a different road: regiona

All-Inclusive EHS Subscription Models provide a Hassle-Free Solution for your Never-Ending EHS Demands: The key differentiator from in-house EHS hiring

The Outdated EHS Model Just Failed Another Test Before this facility adopted our team-based EHS subscription service last June, they had an onsite EHS manager, and most compliance responsibilities sat in the EHS department. Production and supply chain personnel weren’t actively engaged in EHS the way they should have been. When an agency inspection happened under that old model, violations followed. That was then. Last week, the agency inspector called asking for the former E
