Driving Supply Chain Sustainability: The Role of Real-Time Visibility Using Vehicle and Location Data

Tuesday, November 10, 2020 12:00 to Wednesday, February 10, 2021 12:00

ON-DEMAND WEBINAR

This year has been transformational for supply chains. Many topics that were top of mind yesterday have now been almost forgotten due to rapidly changing priorities. One topic, however, remains constant: sustainability.

Some of the world's largest and most innovative companies embrace sustainability and corporate responsibility across their organizations and value chains. But companies often measure and manage their sustainability performance with – at best – inaccurate data. This means that any improvement may be a statistical artifact.

Join AWS, HERE Technologies and our guest speaker from Bosch to discover how real-time data and location technology can help you build a more sustainable and efficient supply chain.

Watch the webinar and learn how to:
1) Leverage reliable data to measure and improve your CO2 footprint
2) Use the power of location to do better what-if analyses
3) Track the performance of your logistics vendors to drive SLA improvement.

 

Speakers:

Peter Kueth, Senior Product Marketing Manager, HERE Technologies

Adam Roark, Worldwide Transportation & Logistics Industry Lead, AWS

Andreas Leiting, Director, Bosch Connected Mobility Solutions, Bosch Group
