About Us
Cost Management Innovators
UMG, founded in 1996, began with a clear mission: to help manufacturers reduce energy costs and improve operational efficiency. Roger Brown, drawing on decades of experience in industrial settings, saw firsthand how overlooked utility and waste expenses could quietly drain profits. His goal was to demystify utility billing, expose hidden cost drivers, and turn complex energy and waste systems into opportunities for savings.
Operating throughout the United States and Canada, UMG partners closely with clients to uncover both immediate and long-term strategies that reduce electricity, gas, and waste costs. By aligning with sustainability goals and leveraging deep analysis, UMG ensures every solution not only cuts waste but optimizes performance—delivering measurable results to the bottom line.
