Chain management and sustainability supplier Makersite partnered with Hitachi Solution on Thursday, to create a sustainable society with data and technology.
The company said the partnership is a step forward in Hitachi Solutions’ sustainability journey, utilizing Makersite’s cutting-edge technology and expertise to refine and move forward with their aim of achieving carbon neutrality.
Makersite’s approach combines data from over 140 material, process, and supplier databases, creating highly accurate digital twins of products and their supply chains. The result is a clear understanding of environmental impact, supply risk, and production costs all integrated into existing IT infrastructures, said the company.
Neil D’Souza, Chief Executive of Makersite stated, “Our combined efforts will offer manufacturers across many industries – from automotive to chemical to machinery – a new foundation on which to build a sustainable society of the future.”
“We believe that only through the actions of pioneer companies will we see a major movement in society as a whole and the companies that utilize Makersite will be those pioneers,” said Yasuhiro Ozawa, Director at Hitachi Solutions.
The partnership represents a pattern in how Japanese manufacturers approach everything from product design to climate change and sustainability goals, the company added.
Headquartered in Stuttgart, Makersite delivers supply chain digital twins for product sustainability, risk and cost optimization for the world’s leading brands.
