The Challenges
Regulation
Evolving Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) regulations and penalties bring new responsibilities and added costs to businesses for compliance and reporting.
Costs
Relentless cost pressures on organisations mean that collaboration is moving up the corporate agenda and historic barriers are falling away.
Healthcare
Healthcare organisations are facing challenging times and the burden of pollution related health problems needs to be tackled.
Silos
Suppliers deliver to the same office on different days on different vehicles, and businesses located in the same office or district order the identical products from different suppliers.
Data
Lack of data on B2B freight vehicle movements in cities is hampering policy planning and suppressing the ‘call to action’ to tackle the environmental impacts.
