How do we move towards a sustainable supply chain?

Well, it’s a complex question. But, the first step is for companies to truly understand the environmental impact of their global supply chain operations – and Veratrak is working with Lune to make that possible.

“We work with over 100 organisations across six continents, and we’re delighted to be partnering with Lune to help them measure their carbon footprint with full control over the level of granularity, and enable them to take action to reduce their carbon emissions. We all have a part to play in tackling climate change, and at Veratrak, we are committed to offer insightful manufacturing supply chain visibility to our customers to enable sustainable, climate conscious shipping workflows.”

Jason LacombeCEO and Founder of Veratrak

Veratrak is a software company building cutting-edge technological solutions to better connect the healthcare and life sciences industries.

They recently launched The Hub, a supply chain management platform which links systems across pharmaceutical, logistics and contract manufacturing organisations to facilitate collaboration, improve visibility and generate efficiencies across supply chain operations.

And now, that includes environmental impact across the supply chain.

Veratrak has integrated Lune’s API for emissions calculations into The Hub. Now, the carbon emissions of any activity across a company’s supply chain are automatically calculated and made visible within The Hub platform. The emissions calculations are based on industry best practice, compliant with the GLEC framework and ISO 14083.

This means pharmaceutical companies will gain visibility of the carbon emissions across their supply chain using The Hub – making sustainability reporting simple and enabling Veratrak's clients to take action to reduce these emissions.

And, with sustainability reporting regulations heating up and scope 3 emissions within the value chain notoriously difficult to measure and address, this is a huge step forward.

”Lune is on a mission to make every product and service climate positive by default. As a critical partner in Veratrak’s efforts to incorporate sustainability into the core business of life science organisations, Lune’s software allows them to calculate their shipping emissions directly through the Hub platform.”
