Get a quick overview of hotspots, problem areas & potential entry
points for improvementusing
the ECOMAP tool!

Eco-Maps
• Eco-maps are a tool for the visualization and identification of
problems and entry points for improvement in your enterprise.
• They are used in a group setting and they help to get insights from people with different roles and backgrounds.

Eco-MapsHow? (1 of 3)
How to do it? 1. Choose problem area/theme to address (i.e. energy,
water, waste, occupational health and safety,…)2. Draw crude outline of workplace area on paper with
key functions, machinery and facilities.
![Page 18: Introduction to Green Practices](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062515/55c3f2aabb61eb89068b45b7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Eco-MapsHow? (2 of 3)
3. Decide your own symbols, i.e. Star = big problems, square =medium problem, round dot = small problem
4. Put one transparent sheet on top of your drawing – (if you don’t have a transparent sheet, draw directly on the map)
5. Look at the outline, think about problems in respective locations and mark them on the transparency using the symbols you chose
After selecting the problems you want to address, you can start analysing their causes, and finding solutions, for example using the Fishbone diagram.
(You can then replace the used sheet with a new transparent & follow procedure for a new problem area/theme).
