Expertise and Analytic Tools

The carbon footprint of your organization, supply chain and products can represent a business opportunity or threat. To understand how carbon will impact your business, you need an effective Carbon Business Strategy.

The first step in developing a strategy is to map out the unique business drivers behind your GHG efforts. These drivers can include stakeholders — regulators or industry groups, community or non-governmental organizations, investors and customers. Or you may be motivated by business goals such as product and supply chain energy efficiency, work process efficiency, or cultivation of alternative energy sources. Understanding your organizational drivers enables you to determine the types of carbon information and the analytic capabilities that you will need to execute an effective strategy.

Your strategy and data management needs may include:

• Carbon Asset or Liability Financial Analysis
• Production Scenario Planning for Managing Carbon Caps
• Production Forecasting
• Reductions and Energy Management Project Analysis
• Supply Chain Transportation Analysis
• Alternative Energy Analysis
