Gain end-to-end visibility of your companies’ supply chain environmental footprint with o9 Sustainability Solutions
For most enterprises, their largest environmental impacts occur within the supply chain. Therefore, the majority of emissions, energy and water consumption, and waste production are outside of their direct control.
With o9, enterprises can take action to gain greater visibility into their impact across the supply chain, and to better manage and improve their overall sustainability performance.
The measurable benefits of a sustainable supply chain
It is essential to think about supply chains as a critical component on the path to a sustainable economy.
Up to 90% of the negative environmental impact of companies lies in their value chains, and the dire effects of inaction are already here. The time to take action is now.

Key capabilities of o9 Environmental Footprint
Source data from o9 and non-o9 applications and integrate business activity and master data from o9 Digital Twin into a central sustainability data hub
o9 end-to-end business mapping processes are extended to embed environmental footprint information covering greenhouse gas emissions (including scopes 1, 2 and 3), energy, waste and water metrics.
Calculate and track environmental footprint for the entire enterprise supply chain.
Measure both the positive and negative impacts of your business activity that result in balanced decisions and a holistic business outlook.
Maintain environmental footprint templates for purchased direct materials including the association of materials using emission factors from life cycle assessment data to enable bottom-up calculations
Derive accurate product footprints to serve multiple needs including reliably reporting product environmental footprint information to stakeholders, integrating this information into the product design process, and linking product footprint metrics to forward planning and decision support
o9’s detailed process modeling capabilities enable manufacturers to develop product life cycle inventories at a deeper level of granularity using combinations of primary and model-based data
GraphCube analytics capability provides for the aggregation and disaggregation of data across the product hierarchy, enabling manufactures to analyze and compare product environmental KPIs across products, product categories and groups, and by financial metrics such as margin contribution
Import emission factors from 3rd party databases, and on a product level from life cycle assessment data to calculate footprints at scale across the entire product inventory.
Compare your company performance to your peers, conduct internal benchmarking to identify sites, and product high offenders to identify best practice gaps.
Improve sustainability reporting, transparency, and performance through holistic steering and standards-based templates for reporting
Build trust with sustainability reporting along multiple standards such as GRI, GHG Protocol, ISO, SASB, CDP, TCFD and more

"So with IBP, what we are achieving now is one single source of truth. Everyone aligns behind one number, with the ultimate accountability for IBP being the general manager. So you take the power out of the functions and give it to the general manager to run the business as they see fit, which is unbelievable."
"We are seeing about a 50% scrap reduction. And that is driven by the fact that we have a line of sight now to our customer forecasts, and we're making decisions to avoid bringing in excess inventory or inventory we don't need."
"Our goal is to achieve 80% of touchless operations. What we mean by that is taking away a lot of the manual operations, enabling automation [...] Through the work with o9, we've eliminated them, and now these manual operations are mostly a thing of the past."
"The o9 platform makes our decision-making much faster. It’s also giving us a better and deeper understanding of the analytics, the cost of decisions, and now when we make those decisions, there’s a much higher degree of confidence that we actually execute."
"o9 is moving the team’s workload and energy away from executing mundane, tedious tasks like determining how many units of each SKU go to each store every single week. We're moving them upstream into preseason planning, into developing strategy, and then the system executes automatically."
