FourKites, a provider of predictive supply chain visibility, recently announced the availability of a free Sustainability Dashboard to provide customers with visibility into the environmental impact of their supply chain operations. The dashboard allows companies to identify specific areas within their supply chains that are contributing high levels of greenhouse gas emissions so that they can develop more effective sustainability strategies.
“The supply chain is a huge contributor to environmental pollution, waste and inefficiency, but companies now have an opportunity to change that,” CEO Mathew Elenjickal, CEO at FourKites. “Our new Sustainability Dashboard - fueled by real-time logistics data from the FourKites platform - is a powerful solution that will help our network achieve their sustainability objectives while simultaneously reducing operating costs and gaining additional business efficiencies.”
FourKites’ Sustainability Dashboard provides customers with insight into:
Estimated greenhouse gas emissions from freight activity
Modes of transportation - rail, ocean, truck - that are contributing the most and least to emissions
How emission levels and patterns are changing over time
Which lanes have the highest and lowest emissions
