WAVE: Assess provides a five-step process to guide organizations through assessing water use, impact and risk across their enterprise. As a result, participants develop an organizational water profile, priority list of sites exposed to water risks, and list of necessary actions to address risks, challenges and opportunities. Organizations also develop a water policy or commitment statement and disclose the outcomes of finishing the WAVE: Assess program. All participants must seek independent verification through SCS Global Services.

SCS Global Services is the exclusive provider of verification services for our WAVE programs. SCS has been providing global leadership in third-party environmental, sustainability, food safety and quality certification, auditing, and standards development since 1984.

For more information on our WAVE programs, please see our FAQ. You can also learn more by reading our WAVE: Assess Normative Document.
