Pain point
C3 AI Sustainability for Manufacturing Solution
Lack of visibility into equipment, line, and process-level sustainability metrics
Sustainability-focused digital twins of manufacturing facilities provide comprehensive view of energy, emissions, water, and waste within and across plants
Limited collaboration between sustainability and manufacturing teams to identify project opportunities
AI-based alerts and recommendations identify specific operational opportunities with estimated sustainability impact
Inability to track product carbon footprints and leverage sustainability investments to competitively differentiate
Industry-specific data models and out-of-the-box emission factor libraries enable advanced product carbon footprint analysis
Time-consuming manual calculation of project savings
Automated AI/ML project savings measurement and verification track sustainability ROI at the equipment and plant levels
Difficult to track and report progress against sustainability goals
Continuous monitoring of plant and enterprise sustainability goals aligned to major ESG reporting requirements
Existing systems are rigid, closed, and not scalable
Flexible, secure, and open platform offers robust integrations and full interoperability with all enterprise and extraprise systems
