Supply Chain Visibility: From Passive to Active

May 24, 2018

With the dawning of the Information Age, always-on connectivity, and IoT with a Gartner projected 20 billion “things” connected online by the year 2020, we have more data than we’ve ever had before and the speed of business is traveling faster than we can keep up. IDC estimates that by 2020, business transactions on the internet, business-to-business and business-to-consumer, will reach 450 billion per day. It’s also predicted that data production will be 44 times greater in 2020 than it was in 2009.

Electric Highways:Accelerating and Optimizing Fast-Charging Deployment for Carbon-Free Transportation

whitePaper | November 11, 2022

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.

Safety in Logistics Operations

whitePaper | February 10, 2022

In logistics operations, the commitment to safety is all too often like the half-hearted embrace we give to an older aunt we occasionally see at family gatherings. We do it because we have to and it’s expected. But we’re not giving safety the full-on bear hug it deserves.

Zero Ready Framework Ensuring shipping can deliver our zero emissions future

whitePaper | November 10, 2022

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.

Resilient Biomanufacturing:Operations and Supply Chain

whitePaper | March 31, 2022

To rapidly scale their manufacturing, our clients need the ability to investigate issues and model the effects of process changes. Foundry integrates data and logic from every stage & every team, from input materials to reactor conditions, and creates a digital twin of the entire development and manufacturing process. This foundation opens the door to virtual experimentation — our clients can use scenario analyses to plan vendor changes, optimize bioreactor yield, and compare quality metrics through time. The net result is a dramatic increase in process development velocity to achieve more consistent yields and efficient ramp-up of new therapies.

10 PRINCIPLES TO DECARBONISE THE OSV INDUSTRY

whitePaper | June 21, 2022

The shipping industry as a whole accounts for 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Decarbonising the maritime industry in line with the Paris Agreement is essential to fighting climate change, and key to facilitating the decarbonisation of many other industries. This requires systemic industrywide change, the complexity of which cannot be understated. Many aspects of the transition to zero-carbon shipping are necessarily long-term endeavours, such as the development of green technology for a new generation of vessels. However, certain shortterm changes can be implemented to help accelerate this transition over the coming decade, until such technological solutions have matured.
