An introduction to Cloud Global Logistics & EcoTransIT

“Climate change is an externality, which occurs

because those who produce the emissions do not

pay for the privilege, and those who are harmed

are not compensated”

The Climate Casino, William Nordhaus - 2013

About Us.

About Us.

• International supply chain

consultancy - trade experts

• A passion for sustainability

• Delivering positive change to

business and international supply

chains

• Collaboration, connectivity and

optimisation through best of breed

IT partners

But there is a barrier.

CSR and sustainability is now a key focus for companies.

Supply chains are complex.

• Supply chains are complex, involving multiple

stakeholders

• Data is stored in multiple locations, formats

and “owned” by different parties

• Getting the whole emissions picture is

challenging for importers and exporters

• Getting buy in from all stakeholders in the

supply chain to share information is critical

• Integrated technology solutions are required

to connect the relevant stakeholders and will

deliver automation and a complete view –

accuracy and simplicity

• Large exporter of fossil fuels – Coal

(2nd) and LNG (3rd)

• In 2014 the total national container

turnover was 7.03 Million compared

to Hamburg of 9.73 Million

• Largest container seaport in Australia

is Melbourne

• Large Bulk Shipping industry (Iron

Ore, Wheat, Logs and more)

• Carbon price repealed in 2014

Australia at a glance.

What represents one third of all container exports

from Melbourne?

Cloud Global & EcoTransIT

How we work

Making emissions data easy to consume.

Aggregated data to improve

business decisions

Using EcoTransIT, we increase understanding of

current supply chain emissions to importers and

exporters.

Understand current

performance

• Most companies don’t know their

whole emissions picture

• Bring historical and current

emissions data to the surface

• Make data useful, and easy to

consume – Business Intelligence

• Emissions management is not just a

supply chain and sustainability task

Understanding current CO2 footprints and

identifying opportunities to improve buying and

supply chain decisions based on historical actions.

Where are we now?

Identify areas for

improvement

• Identifying “carbon costs” of

historical buying and selling

decisions

• Identifying “carbon costs” of

historical transport mode decisions

• Helping buyers and sellers

understand their supply chain

emissions and costs

• Identifying areas in the supply

chain where immediate emissions

reductions can be achieved

Modelling outcomes prior to execution to influence

buying and supply chain decisions.

Where will we be?

Our challenges.

Market Challenges.• Implementation of proposed carbon pricing for sea

shipping – where will standardization come from?

• In a world driven by growth, reducing emissions is

challenging and critical that new technology creates

leaps in clean energy advancements

• Growing ecommerce channels (B2C) - are they the

most efficient mode compared to traditional distribution

models?

• No global or regional MBM for carbon contribution –

carbon cap / trading

• Market is mainly early adopters with high sustainability

profiles

• Global and regional emissions reporting frameworks

are not standardized

• ROI for businesses is unclear to them with limited

budgets and internal appetite

What lies ahead.

• Businesses are becoming more aware, momentum is

growing

• Implementation of proposed carbon price for sea

shipping

• Emissions are largely unknown to most importers and

exporters

• Working with companies on real targets - reducing

carbon intensity – CO2 per unit purchased / sold

• Business leaders are putting their own internal prices on

carbon in preparation

• Australia – a change of government is good and brings

talk of a reintroduction of a MBM

Opportunities.
