GL events UK

GL events UK 的七个业务部门各自管理自己的供应链，涉及的物流合作伙伴范围广泛，从国际运输公司到小型独立运营商。供应商的多样性使得将运输数据整合为标准化格式变得极为困难。收集、整理和解读范围 3 排放数据（涵盖上游和下游的运输与物流），尤其具有挑战性。每个供应商提供的数据格式各不相同，这增加了复杂性，使得创建准确、统一的报告变得困难。

此外，重新计算公司的碳排放基线是一个复杂且耗时的过程。计算范围 3 排放需要使用英国 DEFRA 排放因子进行大量人工计算。然而，由于缺乏来自供应商的标准化数据，GL events 很难生成一致的结果。

Connolly 解释说：“我们花费数小时手动处理数据，但总是担心数据的准确性。数据质量问题一直令人沮丧，这确实大大拖慢了我们的报告流程。”

GL events 需要一种解决方案，不仅能够简化数据收集，还能确保在法规合规报告和内部报告中提供可靠、可审计的结果。

对可持续解决方案以及准确可靠数据的需求，正在持续改变传统商业交易的开展方式。GL events UK 首席执行官 Scott Jameson 表示：“我们开始看到客户需求的真正变化。客户需求涵盖从价值链起始端直至交付后服务的全产品范围，要求提供可持续的替代解决方案，并需包含对所交付活动碳排放影响的专项分析。Blue Yonder Logistics Emissions Calculator 在获取这些数据方面发挥了关键作用。”
