How can SCS Technical Advisory Services support my site during implementation?
SCS Technical Advisory Services are a suite of consulting services with components designed to fit your specific needs. These components can include implementation guidance and standard support for your Team, webinar trainings, gap analysis, and pre-assessment audit. Together these services are key to supporting your Team during all stages of implementation.

What is a Gap Analysis and how can it support implementation?
Gap Analysis is a tool to determine how your existing water practices support implementation of the AWS Standard. We will review existing programs and practices against AWS criteria and indicators. It will allow your company to determine the best path forward to implement waters stewardship actions consistent with the Standard.

Does my implementation team need to be trained? Do you offer training?
We recommend that at least a portion of your implementation team receive training based on the Standard. We offer a multi-day training schedule, as well as topic-specific webinars tailored to your company’s needs.

What is a Pre-Assessment?
Pre-Assessments are desk review audits with a site-specific scope. The assessment is done at a reduced cost and effort, but still provides major gaps and likely non-conformities at each site that can impact implementation.

What are the fees for each of these services?
Fees are specific to your company’s needs and site locations and the combination of services that best fit your needs. SCS can provide a proposal once we understand these needs.

SCS offers two main types of training, customizable to meet your company’s needs.
