Sustainable operations & production

Emissions, costs, quality, and time: As a first step, we will analyze your company's value creation network from a decarbonization perspective, and optimize it holistically. Only then will we look at your sites and value creation processes. If we realign your entire network in the long term, this includes for example opening and closing or relocating value-creation activities and sites. Our short and medium-term measures include product-to-plant allocation and loading and transport optimization – always with the goal that you will be able to strategically reduce your emissions. 

Each site and each plant has different decarbonization challenges, depending in particular on the level of maturity. Our experts first analyze the specific carbon footprint of your sites and the products manufactured in the plant. This is based on global calculation standards: The GHG Protocol or ISO 14064 for the company carbon footprint and/or product carbon footprint. This enables us to derive recommended actions for reducing emissions on a targeted basis. We also develop measures for different areas and develop a decarbonization roadmap aligned with your COO department's overarching goals.

If we focus on companies' Scope 1 and 2 emissions, the level where actions are taken is of course crucial. Based on a financial and potentials assessment, we can develop a plannable roadmap. Expert teams who think of your decarbonization program at global level are even more important. These experts will implement the decarbonization of operations across all locations and advance it in the long term in collaboration with the plants. Clear responsibilities and coordination of governance and organization also play a major role in successful decarbonization. This includes:  

• Empowering your employees and the organization
• Anchoring decarbonization in the organization and including it in policies
• Ensuring action is incentivized
• Establishing meaningful reporting and KPIs
