Welcome to The University of Miami Industrial and Research Assessment Center

Through various research, training, and educational activities, the Center focuses on energy analytics and efficiency, improving productivity, enhancing cybersecurity, promoting resiliency planning, and providing training to various small-to-medium-sized manufacturing entities in Florida and Puerto Rico.

We provide no-cost energy, productivity, and waste consulting services to industrial facilities in Florida and Puerto Rico through funding from the US Department of Energy ($1.7M for 5 years). We deliver detailed, professional reports outlining several ways that facilities can save energy and money. Our analysis includes precise engineering and economic calculations of potential energy saving initiatives through improved efficiency, waste minimization, pollution prevention, productivity enhancements, and overall reduction of operating costs.
