Cleansheet

Resource Cleansheet

Optimizing product, portfolio, and CO2 abatement strategies through environmental and economic transparency and digitally enabled decision making.

Consumer and regulatory demand for environmentally sustainable products is increasing and global CO2 emissions have doubled in the last ten years, but organizations sometimes struggle to make trade-off decisions between driving down CO2 emissions, reducing product costs, and addressing customer value demands.

Resource Cleansheet maps a product or service’s cost and CO2 footprint along its entire value stream and life cycle. Using advanced analytics, proprietary solutions, and benchmarks enables a decision-making process that can guide CO2 abatement strategies.

Our fully integrated solution identifies CO2 emission drivers down to the product feature level and links them with the corresponding costs. This helps to balance emissions with cost impact across the entire product portfolio.

We support short- to long-term CO2 abatement scenario planning by monitoring product-cost impact over time, including market dynamics. Our approach includes:

  • Simultaneous granular calculation of CO2 emissions and product costs based on cost engineering and life cycle assessment (LCA) methodologies
  • Instant impact evaluation on product cost for all identified CO2 abatement initiatives
  • Combines cross-functional levers including engineering, purchasing, supply chain, marketing and sales, and strategic management
  • Widen positive environmental impact through taking the same approach for additional resources, for example water, waste, other greenhouse gases for a fully rounded approach to sustainability
