Sustainability Optimization
Umberto supports companies in improving their environmental performance - since more than 25 years. Through analyses of various scenarios, the environmental impacts of different decisions can be assessed. In a rapidly changing world with necessary corporate decisions, enhancing efficiency plays a pivotal role. In this context, a data-driven decision support system proves highly valuable, combining both economic and ecological benefits, thereby contributing to comprehensive enterprise-wide decision-making.Efficiency is particularly relevant within the context of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), where analysis plays a crucial role. By identifying hotspots - critical areas with significant negative environmental impact - opportunities arise for targeted, environmentally friendly optimization, such as in the composition or production of a product or other relevant elements in the life cycle. The integration of this evaluation method into business processes not only provides a comprehensive understanding of ecological impacts but also establishes a foundation for precise and sustainable decision-making.
In an era where efficiency and environmental compatibility are increasingly pertinent, transparent representation of complex data and their interconnections becomes a crucial and effective means of making decisions that ultimately align with both environmental and economic goals of the company.
The CARE-Principle
The "Collect, Analyze, Report, Evolve" (CARE) principle is iPoint's systematic approach to capturing, evaluating, reporting, and assessing environmental impacts throughout the entire life cycle of a product or service. Rapid and straightforward integration of company-specific primary data and access to comprehensive LCI databases play a crucial role. This enables companies to make decisions based on reliable and relevant information.
Scenarios are prominently provided in the Umberto 11 LCA software, presented clearly and comprehensively as expected from the user-friendly interface. By making a selection, you can compare different scenarios and have different impacts displayed graphically. This helps with the evaluation and makes it easier to see facts and figures.
Creating scenarios is equally user-friendly through the Model Configurator. There you can create different scenarios for the desired model. In Umberto 11 you will find the scenarios created in the integrated "Scenario Manager" : clear and concise, as you would expect from a user-friendly interface. You can compare different scenarios with specific parameter settings and contexts and have the different environmental impacts displayed graphically.
Conclusion: Particularly in the context of life cycle assessment, analyses and data-supported decision-making aids are a decisive competitive advantage in a rapidly changing corporate landscape.
