EPE and environmental audits help the management of an organization to assess the status of its environmental performance and to identify areas for improvement as needed. EPE is an ongoing process of collec

In contrast, environmental audits are conducted periodically to verify conformance to defined requirements. Further guidance on environmental auditing is provided in I

While EPE focuses on describing the environmental performance of an organization, LCA is a technique for

Further guidance on LCA is provided in ISO 14040, ISO 14041, ISO 14042 and ISO 14043 (see Bibliography). Relevant information derived from these and other data sources can support the implementati
