The data is your supplier’s.
The control is yours.
Collect, govern and keep your supply chain data and factors up to date. Without it becoming an impossible job, and with data that holds up under verification.
Don’t let average factors flatten everything.
With average factors, aggregated by geography and technology, every supplier ends up behind the same number: the excellence of those who invested disappears. Primary data captures the real differences and rewards the better performers.
Bluegreen is for you if:
-
Your supplier’s factor doesn’t exist, or your supplier isn’t ready.
For contract manufacturing and long supply chains.
Three ways to build it: entirely from the supplier; in mixed mode, with a template set up by the emission manager and filled in by the supplier; or collected directly, for the more mature ones.
-
Too many suppliers to involve.
Large-scale collection campaigns gather data and factors from a high number of suppliers, keeping everything under control.
-
Many hands on the data, no guarantees.
For multi-site organisations with many functions involved.
Data governance: you delegate collection while keeping central control. Every data point carries with it who uploaded it, the change requests, the validation status and the supporting evidence. Defensible in an audit.
-
Factors change over time.
Versioning keeps your baseline consistent year on year and tracks your suppliers’ improvements. So you can reward the ones who reduce.
Why it actually works
Solving the inconsistency problem works in the supply chain too.
Your supplier’s data comes in as it is, ready for you to validate.
You give credit to your best suppliers.
Impossible with average factors alone.
Governed data is defensible data.
Traceability, validation and versioning hold up in audits and verifications.
From data to reduction.
Solid primary data is the basis of a credible strategy, not just a reporting exercise.
