Managing Risk In An Uncertain World

Shipping faces a critical challenge. The energy transition is well underway and ocean going zero carbon ships must be in service by 2030. The industry is currently focussed on delivering zero Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by fuelling with renewably sourced ammonia, hydrogen or methanol. But solutions for widespread deployment are not ready yet and ships built today have expected lifetimes of 20-30 years. So, the industry now thinks in terms of ‘readiness’, the ability to ensure that a vessel can use zero carbon fuel once this becomes feasible, either by building new vessels that have this capability from the day they are built, or by ensuring existing vessels can be easily converted.

Electric vehicle (EV) adoption has reached a tipping point. It is now accelerating toward mass market adoption, particularly in states taking proactive measures to encourage transportation electrification. New York and Massachusetts have made transportation decarbonization a priority: in 2021, New York adopted legislation targeting 100% zeroemission vehicle sales for passenger vehicles by 2035, and both states have adopted the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation, which mandates an increasing number of zeroemission medium- and heavy-duty vehicle (MHDV) sales starting in 2025.

No organization’s global supply chain has been untouched by the many unforeseen events that have ravaged the ability to move products from the point of manufacturing to the point of consumption. Public health threats and geopolitical events are just a few challenges to global supply chains—and they all appear to be happening concurrently. Whether you’re talking about business-to-consumer or business-to-business supply chains, the impact of these events has been undeniable. When evaluating their own supply chain risks, organizations should expect the unexpected, and plan their systems accordingly. And organizations need new ways to use data to promote efficiency, visibility, and resiliency in their global supply chains.

It is imperative that nations keep global heating below 1.5˚C – in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. Even at 1˚C of warming, climate impacts on humanity and nature are already extensive and growing. The risk of passing multiple climate tipping points increases rapidly between 1.5˚ and 2˚C. To meet the Paris goals, major and unprecedented levels of carbon dioxide emissions reductions are needed this decade, on a pathway to zero emissions around 2050. The timescales are extremely urgent. Delay is not an option.

Today’s supply chains are driven by the competitive tenets of e-commerce – speed, accuracy and access to a broad inventory – all delivered at low cost. This mandate has driven distribution centers to become increasingly complex and dependent on automation systems, while raising the stakes to threaten critical damage in the event of cost overruns or project delays. Concentrating supplier responsibility for these automation projects with a single, lead provider simplifies vendor management and accountability, enabling companies to approach a single point of contact and avoid juggling delays and charges from multiple contractors.
