Supply Chain Carbon Footprint Analysis

Climate change, often referred to as Global Warming, is fast becoming a major issue for business, as well as our communities.

Businesses are recognising the need to become good corporate citizens, as well as prepare for regulatory schemes that may require them to reduce carbon emissions. The difficulty many businesses now face, is understanding where to start.

Recognising this need, Logistics Bureau is now able to assist businesses, with Carbon Footprint Analysis, in the following areas:

Quantifying existing carbon emissions from Supply Chains and Distribution Networks.
Testing alternative methods and modes of distribution, and quantifying the potential emissions reduction.
Developing plans to reduce CO2 emissions, by modifying transport and facility usage in the Supply Chain.

CO2 emissions reduction - carbon emissions audit In this simple example output from a CO2 emissions audit, the level of carbon emissions are quantified at each key stage in the Supply Chain, so that alternative operational models can then be modeled that can target reduced CO2 emissions.

In many markets, consumers are now expecting suppliers to set and achieve CO2 emission reduction targets. Furthermore, consumers are starting to select products, based on the amount of carbon emissions produced in their manufacture. All of this puts even more pressure on businesses to tackle emissions issues.
