Projects

New regulation Open Options worked with a chemical company to successfully determine the best path forward under new environmental regulations.

Market shift A large service company was concerned about encroaching foreign competition and the shift by its customers towards more “green” practices that could reduce its core business. Open Options planned a successful approach to balance competing interests within the company and help the company remain an industry leader.

Navigating change Open Options helped one manufacturer confirm their plan for emissions compliance in the context of emerging technologies. The strategy needed to address the risk of an alternate technology becoming the market choice.

Navigating conflict and competition A manufacturer’s environmental certification standard was under attack by environmentalists. Open Options helped the manufacturer to understand the consequences of adopting the environmentalists’ standard and also predicted how their competitors would act and react.

Environmental remediation Community leaders engaged Open Options to determine how to successfully advance their demands regarding environmental contamination caused by government actions.

Product lifecycle An established manufacturer turned to Open Options for strategic direction for handling its products at the end of their lifecycle and, specifically, whether to enter the recycling business.
