Breitling in partnership with Capgemini and Salesforce to Automate Carbon Emissions Tracking Towards Carbon Neutrality
Swiss luxury watchmaker Breitling is taking enormous steps forward in carbon neutrality by partnering with Capgemini and Salesforce. The three companies have come together for the automated tracking and reporting of carbon emissions. This partnership will ease the process of following up and reporting about carbon emissions through automation while eliminating the time-consuming effort of manually collecting data.
In line with the partnership, Breitling will utilize Salesforce’s Net Zero Cloud solution to efficiently work on its environmental data and achieve carbon neutrality. The cloud-based solution automates the emissions data collection process, saving time through the eradication of manual efforts, and helps Breitling monitor its emissions with precision and efficiency.
Automation of Carbon Emissions Data Collection
Breitling’s efforts toward lessening carbon emissions are also hampered by very intricate and manual processes of data collection. Getting all the information related to emissions through means of transport, facilities, energy consumption, and supply chains requires a lot of time and can be exposed to errors. To overcome such complexities, it has teamed up with Salesforce and Capgemini to implement an easier process.
The sales force’s Net Zero Cloud solution automates the process of collection of emissions data and reporting. It integrates data from multiple sources and calculates the amount of emissions using clear global standards such as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and organizes and visualizes it in a simple manner using dashboards to clearly view the entire carbon footprint of the company.
The system also enhances data accuracy by reducing the room for possible human error, which will enable Breitling to keep better track of its own progress toward carbon neutrality. This central system streamlines the process of handling emissions data and assures that the reporting remains open and consistent for the corporation.
Emissions Reporting in Real-Time
One of the key features of the Net Zero Cloud solution is its ability to create real-time dashboards that track and report emissions. This allows Breitling to see its emissions data in a visual format, making it easier to monitor progress and identify areas for improvement. The system provides a more streamlined approach to sustainability reporting, which is critical for companies aiming to meet international carbon reduction targets.
This automated system enables Breitling to generate carbon emissions reports much more frequently, with fewer errors and in less time than would be possible for manual data entry. These reports are crucial for the company to track the progress of its emissions reductions, to share updates with stakeholders, and to hold itself accountable for reaching carbon neutrality.
Supply Chain Expansion and Science-Based Targets
Although Breitling has made quite impressive strides in the automation of its tracking, that’s not where it stops for the company. It intends to further expand its carbon-tracking capabilities across its entire supply chain. The company will connect data from suppliers about emissions, thus gaining an adequate view of the carbon footprint across its value chain and acting to reduce such emissions throughout.
In addition, Breitling works to set science-based targets for its emissions reduction. The global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C align with these targets as a framework for the company to reduce its carbon footprint in a way that is consistent with the latest climate science. Using Salesforce’s platform will allow the organization to monitor its progress toward these targets and modify its strategies as necessary.
Collaboration with Employees and Suppliers
Another critical advantage of the Net Zero Cloud solution is that it can be used to drive collaboration within the company and with external stakeholders such as suppliers. The platform is designed to simplify the sharing of emissions data, thus making it easier for employees to access real-time information and suppliers to contribute their emissions data. Such better data sharing will be a fundamental aspect of collaboration and driving reduction in emissions throughout the entire value chain.
If more companies are going to continue down this path of sustainability, more collaboration and an even greater sharing of emissions data are necessary. This is where Breitling, in its leadership of Net Zero Cloud from Salesforce, leads the way for the luxury goods industry and inspires others to walk the same path.
Future Gazing
Breitling has taken its sustainability effort a step further with its partnership with Capgemini and Salesforce. Through the automation of emissions data collection and reporting, Breitling finds it easier to trace and thereby reduce the carbon footprint while ensuring it meets the standards set in the international climate range. Therefore, with a centralized system, it is poised to control its impact on the environment and take bold steps toward carbon neutralization.
In the future, Breitling will take its efforts to the next level by further embedding emissions tracking in its supply chain and setting ambitious, science-based targets for emissions reductions. With this support from Salesforce and Capgemini, the company will easily be on track to meet its carbon neutrality goals and therefore make a significant contribution to the broader fight against climate change.
Conclusion
The collaboration of Breitling with Salesforce and Capgemini succinctly demonstrates automation prowess to achieve climate-oriented sustainability goals. The company is automating its carbon footprint tracking and reporting processes through the use of Salesforce’s Net Zero Cloud solution, thereby ensuring accuracy and improving cooperation both with employees and suppliers. In expanding efforts toward carbon neutrality, the luxury goods sector leader sets a great example for others to follow.
