GREEN TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS These solutions providers offer technology that empowers sustainable supply chains
AERA TECHNOLOGY www.aeratechnology.com
enVISTA www.envistacorp.com
MANHATTAN ASSOCIATES www.manh.com
The Aera Decision Cloud platform helps teams use decision intelligence to support sustainability goals, align against ESG targets, and reduce carbon impacts while balancing service, revenue, and cost. ARRIVE LOGISTICS www.arrivelogistics.com The ARRIVEnow technology platform includes a load-matching algorithm that ensures shipments travel on trucks running the most efficient routes possible, which reduces emissions. The company’s private fleet and committed capacity programs are designed to reduce deadhead and the resulting emissions. BREAKTHROUGH www.breakthroughfuel.com CleanMile is an end-to-end emissions management solution for Scope 1 and 3 transportation emissions that gives shippers the framework and support to track, plan, and execute decarbonization initiatives.
enVista conducts EPA-aligned carbon emissions and sustainability analysis, reviewing shippers’ carbon footprint by mode, carrier, account and lane. The report provides insight into total transportation-based emissions, cost to offset and what-if modeling, revealing opportunities to reduce emissions.
Manhattan Active Omni manages direct- to-consumer operations to enable greener choices. The Smarter Pallet Fill algorithms built into Manhattan Active Inventory provide as much as a 7% increase in truck fill ratios, meaning fleet miles traveled can be cut down and carbon emissions reduced. PROVISIONAI www.provisionai.com AutoO2 uses mathematics and artificial intelligence to convert shipping requirements into optimized full loads, generating carbon savings and reducing transportation costs by 5-10%. The technology gathers data from existing systems to generate the optimized shipment configuration and the associated 3-D load diagram. TIVE www.tive.com The company’s “Green Program” incentivizes customers and receivers (those receiving trackers at the completion of a shipment) to return used Tive trackers instead of discarding them. The program reduces electronic waste by renewing and recirculating trackers, extending their useful life and reducing the demand for new device production. YARD MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS yardmanagementsolutions.com YMS addresses the environmental impact of traditional yard operations by reducing unnecessary travel distances within facilities. YMS offers drivers real-time visibility, guiding them directly to the yard spot where the trailer is located. This targeted approach minimizes aimless driving in search of trailers, leading to a reduction in CO2 emissions. The incorporation of GPS technology guarantees that moves are assigned to the nearest driver, enhancing efficiency and further decreasing emissions.
FLOWSPACE www.flow.space
Flowspace’s Network Optimization product determines the optimal configuration within the company’s network of 150+ fulfillment locations. By optimally distributing inventory, merchants are able to keep shipments within nearby zones, minimizing shipping distances and related carbon footprint.
FREIGHTGATE freightgate.net
Freightgate’s cloud-based solution incorporates a carbon modeling feature that helps shippers calculate the carbon emissions associated with their logistics operations. With this data, businesses can make informed decisions aimed at mitigating their environmental impact.
CONCENTRIC www.concentricusa.com
GuaranteedPOWER offerings now include PowerHIVE and energy storage solutions that enable renewable power generation for facilities. A typical GuaranteedPOWER system reduces water consumption, eliminating the need for lead and acid on-site; decreases energy usage; and reduces carbon emissions.
GREENPLAN greenplan.de
Using advanced geotracking and predictive analytics, Greenplan cuts emissions by 10-20% and improves efficiency by 20-40%. These savings empower businesses to pursue green responsibility while boosting productivity.
DRAGONFLY ENERGY www.dragonflyenergy.com
LOG-NET www.log-net.com
Dragonfly Energy’s Battle Born All-Electric APU replaces traditional diesel-powered auxiliary power units in heavy-duty trucks, eliminating idling. This lithium-ion battery system powers in-cabin HVAC, appliances, and electronics while the truck is off, producing zero emissions.
LOG-NET tracks and manages the carbon footprint of multimodal global shipments and contributes to international distribution of goods through patents on methods of calculation and public education.
