Greener transport through smarter planning

Reducing waste by optimizing product replacements
A global consumer goods company optimized its product phase-in and phase-out process to tackle new product launch challenges. Using advanced supply chain planning and sustainability KPIs, the company improved demand insights, managed inventory efficiently, and automated decision-making. This resulted in reduced waste, fewer transport movements, and better service levels.
Modeling the impact of strategic investments
A leading chemical company embraced circularity by investing in advanced chemical recycling technology, transforming hard-to-recycle plastic waste into high-quality materials. By using OMP's Green Planning capabilities, the company integrated all operations into a digital twin, ensuring precise mass balance and effective emissions management. This comprehensive approach reduced greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% and supported strategic investment decisions.
