Long Description:

Business Performance Improvement LLC is a sustainable process improvement consulting firm, founded by Brion Hurley. Our mission is focused on “helping businesses and organizations achieve “triple bottom line” performance using Lean and Six Sigma.” We are a 1% for the Planet member, and we volunteer our expertise with local nonprofits.

We are driven by a desire to make the world a better place. The UN Sustainable Development Goals provide a list of 17 major initiatives that need to be improved. We focus specifically on energy reduction, wasted food, and zero waste.

We are a network of consultants dedicated to helping businesses and organizations develop a culture and discipline of process improvement beyond just making money (profits). We focus on practical, hands-on experience and learning, not weeks of training that provides no tangible benefits.

BPI donates at least one solar panel monthly to the nonprofit, Everybody Solar.
