Cleaner Production Assessment is conducted at volunteer facilities to identify waste sources, causes, and appropriate CP options. These CP options are opportunities that will help the facility reduce waste generation and at the same time, increase its productivity.

CP assessment is an integral component of a CP program that may eventually serve as the foundation for the establishment of an environmental management system within a facility. It is a procedure used to examine industries, production processes, raw materials as well as products, in order to evaluate environmental improvements that could be made, and estimate their costs. However, the effectiveness of the process does not end with this step.  The success of a CP program relies on the implementation of generated CP options, monitoring of their environmental performance, and continued reassessment and improvement of their operations.
