Our work

Google’s corporate real-estate organization (REWS) is committed to meeting ambitious climate action goals and needed a way to operationalize reporting. Workshop stewarded discovery and design for a centralized reporting system that not only tracks metrics but also supports actionable insights and cross-functional accountability.

Workshop collaborated with Google’s Real Estate and Workplaces (REWS) team to craft global sustainability standards, ensuring clear guidelines, baseline requirements and performance reporting. The new standards clarify action for teams around the world and help Google stay on track for ambitious goals.

The Apparel Impact Institute (Aii) is committed to decarbonizing the apparel supply chain. They have the vision and resources, and now, they want to get more focused on their strategic roadmap. Workshop stepped in to facilitate a collaborative strategy process with their leadership and stakeholders that will ultimately amplify Aii's scale and impact.

The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) wanted to leverage its influence and resources to combat the prevalence of harmful chemicals in everyday products. Workshop guided the team through a process to identify the most impactful pathways for EDF to make safer products the norm.

Google’s real estate operation (REWS) has dedicated programs for carbon, circularity, ecology and water. Workshop partnered with the REWS Sustainability team to facilitate workshops and develop processes for improved cross-program collaboration. This process is leading to a more integrated approach across key programs and will accelerate progress on shared goals.

The Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute (C2C PII) is renowned for stewarding the “gold standard” certification for sustainable products. But they faced challenges with the underlying data essential for product certification. Workshop partnered with the Institute and took a design thinking approach to develop a comprehensive data platform.
