英國 GL events

GL events UK 的七個業務單位各自管理自己的供應鏈，涵蓋從國際運輸商到小型獨立營運商等一系列物流合作夥伴。這種供應商的多樣性在將運輸數據整合成標準格式方面造成了顯著的困難。收集、組織和詮釋範圍 3 排放量（涵蓋上游與下游運輸與物流）的數據特別具有挑戰性。每家供應商以不同的格式提供數據，增加了額外的複雜性，使得建立精確的、統一的報告變得困難。

此外，重新計算公司的碳排放基線是一個複雜且耗時的流程。計算範疇 3 的排放量需要使用英國 DEFRA 排放因子進行大量手動計算。但是，由於缺乏來自供應商的標準化數據，GL events 難以產生一致的結果。

「我們花了好幾個小時手動計算數字，而且總是擔心數據的準確性，」Connolly 解釋道。「數據品質問題一直是個惱人的問題，這確實拖慢了我們的報告流程」。

GL events 需要一個解決方案，不僅能簡化數據蒐集，還能確保可靠、可稽核的結果，以符合法規遵循和內部報告。

對永續解決方案以及精確可靠數據的需求，正在不斷改變傳統商業交易的運作方式。GL events UK 執行長 Scott Jameson 表示：「我們開始看見客戶需求的真正轉變。」從價值鏈的源頭到交付後的後續環節，客戶需求涵蓋整個產品線中的各種永續替代方案，包含提供所執行活動的碳影響分析之要求。Blue Yonder 物流排放量計算器在收集這些數據方面則發揮了關鍵作用。」

標準化數據收集的自動化解決方案 

GL events UK 認識到對簡化、可擴展的排放量報告解決方案的需求，於是與 Blue Yonder 合作。物流排放量計算器提供了一個解決方案，旨在自動化和標準化排放量數據蒐集、計算和報告，並提供了幾個主要利益：

1. Time savings by automating data collection and consolidation across suppliers 
Blue Yonder’s solution consolidated logistics data across all suppliers, regardless of size or location, significantly reducing the time spent gathering and formatting information. Instead of manually sorting through disparate data sets, GL events could now collect transportation data in an automated way with a consistent format.

2. Accredited calculations 
The solution ensures that emissions calculations are reliable and adhere to industry standards. Its Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC)-accredited and ISO 14083-aligned solution calculates and reports emissions using an auditable and transparent process. This enabled the company to make meaningful comparisons between suppliers and track their carbon emissions with confidence.

3. Scalable across the business 
The flexibility of Logistics Emissions Calculator made it easy to scale across GL events UK’s multiple business units. Whether a shipment was handled by an international hauler or a local logistics provider, Blue Yonder’s solution supported all transport modes and provided comprehensive emissions data for each. This allowed GL events to gain a complete picture of its environmental impact.

4. Data-driven decision-making for emissions reductions 
With Logistics Emissions Calculator, GL events could not only gather emissions data but also leverage it to make informed decisions. The detailed insights into the environmental impact of its supply chain helped the company identify areas for improvement and implement targeted emissions reductions across its operations.

5. Seamless onboarding and support 
The Logistics Emissions Calculator’s user-friendly interface and dedicated support made onboarding smooth and efficient. GL events quickly integrated the solution into their existing processes, with guidance available at every step of the way. “The team has been fantastic to work with. The solution covers everything we need, and the team was incredibly supportive during onboarding. It’s great to know we’re in the hands of experts,” Connolly said.

結果 

與 Blue Yonder 合作，無論是在永續性還是營運效率方面，都為 GL events UK 提供了可衡量的益處。

1. Transparent calculations that build trust 
The Accuracy™ and Clarity™ features within Logistics Emissions Calculator ensure GL events can provide fully transparent emissions data to its stakeholders. This transparency helps build trust both within the company and with customers and suppliers throughout the supply chain. Stakeholders can now clearly see how emissions are calculated and the quality of the data provided, making the company’s sustainability reporting more robust and credible.

2. Reliable data for impactful emissions reductions 
The data collected through Logistics Emissions Calculator allows GL events to produce detailed reports on carbon emissions for each shipment. These insights are crucial for calculating the company’s overall carbon footprint and identifying areas for improvement. With trustworthy data at their fingertips, GL events can confidently pursue emissions reduction initiatives within their supply chain.

3. Improved efficiency 
By automating the carbon accounting process, Logistics Emissions Calculator eliminated many of the manual steps that previously bogged down GL events’ supply chain team. Data collection, calculation and reporting are now all automated, reducing the risk of human error and freeing up valuable time for other strategic initiatives. This not only improves internal efficiency but also increases the reliability of the company’s emissions data.

結論 

展望未來，GL events UK 計劃繼續其永續性旅程，利用 Blue Yonder 的解決方案進一步完善其排放量計算和報告流程，並在其整個供應鏈中實施有效的排放量減少措施。

透過與 Blue Yonder 合作，GL events 在建立更透明、高效和永續的物流作業方面取得了重大進展。隨著公司的成長及對環保活動需求的增加，GL events 已準備就緒，以滿足法規要求、減少物流供應鏈排放量，並實現長期的永續性目標。
