Purpose of Research. The intent of this research assignment is to discuss the topic of sustainability in EU and US companies in their strategic concepts and their actions. It will entail how both the EU and US Company both understand or comprehend the topic of sustainability according to their region. The research involves a critical analysis and assessment to see how much sustainability is used as an empty marketing positioning and communication concept, versus how well it is carried through on all levels in a company and its value chain. Many times in business, sustainability is seen as a voluntary and socially responsible option, so it sits, written in the business plans and theoretical obligations of the company but is never actually implemented or followed through with. The purpose of this assignment is to find out if companies both “talking the talk” of sustainability, and following through by “walking the walk.” In order to conclude these results, the economic “bottom line,” environmental and social performance factors on a theoretical and empirical level must be more closely analyzed. These three categories and how they are used by a business to support the common welfare of the economy and its environment are the basis of what describes how a company is sustainable. Therefore, they are the main topics of research within the research assignment on sustainability and what the questions within the survey are based upon. For a closer look at the exact questions which were used in the survey, the questionnaire can be found in the Appendix. The two construction companies which are analyzed in the primary research are Bautron AG, who is the general contractor partnering with 4 other major companies (From the German speaking EU), and Grant Homes (From the US). These two companies have been chosen in order to compare the sustainability in each company’s residential construction methods of how they build homes. By interviewing each company and documenting their methods of the construction process, it is then possible to interpret how each company views and practices being sustainable in their every day processes. Xxx Xxxxxx, the architect at 4-D Holzarchitekture (one of the five companies working together within the German speaking countries or EU) was whom the interview was executed with in order to collect the empirical data from Bautron AG. The interview was performed, blue prints and specifications were assembled, and the physical construction process of a residential home ...

Purpose of Research. The Early Legal Advice Pilot (ELAP) is a joint project run by the UK Border Agency and the Legal Services Commission. It will test whether providing legal advice to asylum seekers at an earlier stage in the process will get more cases right first time. The provision of legal advice early in the asylum application process was originally piloted between November 2006 and December 2007 in the Midlands & East of England Region. This process became known as the Solihull Pilot or Early Legal Advice (ELA). The project board has decided to run the process again, aided by Legal Services Commission (LSC) contracts, over the Midlands & East of England Region for an assessment period of 12 months.
