AHC Group Consulting Project

GM — BB&L Remedial Program

Since 2004 AHC Group has been helping their clients, General Motors and Blasland, Bouck & Lee jointly, to gain insight into the challenges that organizations face with the management of their environmental liabilities and remedial programs.

Both companies have recognized the importance of reaching beyond their own organizations to seek out the collective wisdom of their peers across a broad spectrum of industries. To that end, AHC Group has co-hosted a series of benchmarking events that was sponsored by GM and BBL and attended by representative of 25 other leading, high-profile companies.

Below is a sample slide from a PowerPoint presentation shown at the last benchmarking session, held in Chicago on September 15-16, 2005. Here we strategically examine and tie together the competing needs of regulatory and financial compliance with the environmental remediation efforts of companies.
