Bridging the Gap between Life Cycle Assessments and Operations. Companies are increasingly accountable for their carbon footprint and environmental impacts, but methods to measure and analyse these in a meaningful way have, until now, been lacking. Our mission is to provide organisations with the methods, tools and data to comprehensively assess their environmental impacts. And then to take the next crucial step - feeding the findings into their product life cycles and operational planning to make real and sustainable difference. We use knowledge graphs to track, visualise, analyse and illustrate LCA goals. Our software can model different scenarios quickly and contextualise changes across the product production cycle and supply chains, right down to carbon metrics of individual components and raw materials. Knowledge graphs enable the discovery of brand new relationships within complex processes, leading to powerful new insights unavailable using other tools. This gives us a powerful way to explore alternative materials, suppliers and processes to optimise production to both increase profits and reduce environmental impact. It therefore becomes highly relevant to both the engineering and sustainability teams. Everyone within the organisation sees the direct benefits of this approach. We understand that organisations are on sustainability journeys, and goals and data are constantly shifting. The traditional LCA approach has been disjointed, subjective and fragmented, and reports are often out-of-date or irrelevant before they are even published, let alone digested and actioned. Any tool or method needs to be highly reactive and flexible to be effective. If it can't help the operation of the business, it's value can be questioned - and this will increasingly be perceived as 'greenwashing'.
