 Milwaukee E3 Program for City Manufacturers
Accepting Applications Now!
The City of Milwaukee and its partners launched a sustainable manufacturing program for the City’s small and medium-sized manufacturers. This program – Milwaukee E3 (ME3) – is a no-cost program to help manufacturers cut costs while at the same time helping to minimize negative environmental impacts of their manufacturing processes and practices.
If you are a manufacturer located in the City of Milwaukee with between 20-500 employees and are interested in learning more about how ME3 can help you be more competitive and cut costs, send an email to the ME3 Team at sustainability@milwaukee.gov or call (414) 286-8317 for more information.
The ME3 Team includes an array of recognized, local industry experts who have worked with thousands of manufacturers in the state on similar issues: everything from improving energy efficiency, to better natural resource management, to improved logistics, to pollution prevention. The ME3 Team draws from direct experience of saving Wisconsin firms money while improving environmental performance.
Mission:
To improve the competitiveness of small and medium sized manufacturers in Milwaukee by promoting the implementation of cost-effective sustainable manufacturing* practices and technologies that collectively reduce community-wide negative environmental impacts.
*Sustainable manufacturing is defined as the creation of manufactured products that use processes that minimize negative environmental impacts, conserve energy and natural resources, are safe for employees, communities, and consumers and are economically sound (U.S. Department of Commerce definition).
ME3 “Triple Bottom-Line” Goals:
Goal: People: Strengthen local economy
Goal: Planet: Reduce local manufacturer’s environmental impact
Goal: Profit: Improve participant competitiveness through implementation of sustainable manufacturing practices and technologies
