Moving beyond traditional “features and benefits” selling, the BEC uses the 'Sandler Sales' approach, focusing on asking the right questions and finding solutions tailored to your customers’ needs. This results in a shorter selling cycle and a higher closing ratio.

In today’s economy, even governments are seeking additional income, often through fines and fees from regulatory compliance.

At the BEC, our highly trained and experienced team helps you navigate this landscape. We prepare your business for inspections and audits, helping you minimize fines and stay compliant.

As your Sustainability Consultants, we help your organization improve your environmental and social impact by developing and implementing sustainable practices. This includes assessing environmental performance, ensuring regulatory compliance, and promoting resource efficiency.

One of our founding partners was fond of saying to our clients, “Why do you keep throwing money in your trash bin?” His point: Sustainability doesn’t have to cost money; often, it reduces wasted resources, adding to the bottom line.

California’s SB-1383 (SLCP), effective January 1, 2024, enforces sustainability for all businesses with unannounced audits and fines ranging from $50 to $500 per infraction.

This law eliminates the “Good Faith Effort” clause, mandates annual audits and provides strict penalties. Compliance is crucial to avoid fines.

BEC helps you tackle these regulations, offering guidelines, employee training, and documentation to ensure compliance and prepare for audits.

Not only can we provide you with guidelines on how to prepare your business for an audit, and training for your employees that meets the requirements of SB-1383, we even document that training, and remind you when an employee needs retrained.

OSHA and Cal/OSHA have different regulations, with Cal/OSHA being more stringent for California businesses.

At BEC, our OSHA-certified trainers help you meet regulatory needs by addressing three key aspects:

1. Documentation and Plans: Create guidelines and safety plans, including the Injury and Illness Prevention Plan (IIPP).
2. Training: Train employees on safety plans, ensuring they have access to necessary documents.
3. Compliance: Keep all documents accessible and document any violations.

We offer a variety of training methods, including in-person sessions, webinars, and video training. We document employee training and notify you when retraining is needed. Our consultants are available to guide you through incidents or OSHA inspections.

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) manages hazardous and non-hazardous waste. California’s version, the Hazardous Waste Control Law (HWCL), is more stringent.

BEC can help you:

• Understand California HWCL requirements
• Develop a compliant waste management plan
• Train employees on waste handling and emergency procedures
• Conduct regular compliance audits
• Assist during EPA or California inspections

With our expertise in both RCRA and California HWCL, you can ensure your business is fully compliant with all waste management regulations, contributing to the conservation of resources and protection of human health and the environment in California.
