Generating Profit Rather Than Waste or Carbon far #Before3020

At Before3020, Inc., we specialise in transforming end-to-end supply chains to reduce operational inefficiencies, waste, carbon emissions; and, globally improve your customers’ perceived value of your social and environmental impact.

Our expertise lies in creating smarter, greener, more efficient, and profitable supply chain operations for businesses, NGOs, and governments through our 5R Programme, contributing to a circular economy and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) standards.

We are incorporated as a Public Benefit Corporation (e.g., a global social enterprise/sustainability firm); we work B2B-B2G-B2C-B2B, primarily functioning as a supply chain management firm.

We offer a free 15-minute consultation to discuss how to improve your supply chain with our technology and sustainable materials solutions, which is part of our "5R Program," diversifying your revenue streams, and qualifying your company for impact investments.

The Problem:

There is a global problem with end-to-end supply chain operations, including the need to reduce inventory and operational waste, carbon emissions; and, the need to replace materials, packaging, and “green” the facilities, leading to financial and social issues; underscoring that the world is far from reaching the United Nations’ (2030) Sustainable Development Goal agenda in the next six years.

Here’s What We Do, Who We Target, and Our Solutions. What Are The Benefits? What About ROI?

Our service(s): Sustainable-Circular-Supply-Chain-As-A-Service. Our program with monthly metered sustainable-circular deliverables is known as our “5R Program.”

We focus on enterprises, governments, and purpose-driven SMEs, applying the commercial and social determinants of health frameworks (i.e., access to information, job creation, food and water security, sustainable clothing and housing, access to medications, etc.). Our client focus includes Fast Moving Consumer Goods, Hotels, Federal, and "Green Health," which is our healthcare pipeline. However, our solutions are industry-agnostic. We are also working on data centers, auto companies, and others.

Our change agents start our 5R program with 2D or 3D real-time sensor measurements of environmental conditions such as humidity, water, temperature, and noise per room, building, and route to quantify where and how much waste and carbon emissions exist from manufacturing to distribution; an end-to-end and full lifecycle sustainability-circularity program. We customize a sustainability-circularity program dependent on your sensor data (collected during a 6–7 month sensor pilot), that includes reducing single-use items, plastics, food, water, pharmaceutical, and/or clothing waste following the pilot; as well as creating a system to recirculate your internal single-use plastics or other non-hazardous waste; or, create your sustainable product line(s) that does not result in waste or fossil fuel emissions. We have a system for reverse logistics that results in profit for your products that cannot recirculate. Our later phases of our 5R program also includes developing your sustainable material packaging and products as well as converting your waste-to-energy, which we can discuss in detail over a Zoom call.

Our 5R Program benefits include cost optimization, and reductions in financial, legal, and regulatory risks, saving you money in opportunity costs, time, human capital, and energy efficiency. This increases your operational productivity, financial, and perceived customer value, your qualifications for impact/ESG investments, generates new business, and diversifies your revenue streams. The results are supply chain optimization, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), interoperability, sustainable development, social and environmental impact, social responsibility (including governance), and demonstrable financial return.

ROI includes, but is not limited to the following, since companies can no longer afford to dismiss sustainability and circularity as just another trend:

Industry-agnostic:

  • Systems with sustainable and circular supply chains can save an average minimum of $12.1 million dollars annually

    with our full 5R Program

  • Companies implementing ethical supply chain practices can boost revenue by up to 20% for responsible products & packaging, reducing supply chain costs by up to 16%, & enhancing brand value by up to 30%

  • Consultancy firm reports that a solid ESG score can lower capital costs by 10%

  • Global survey revealed that 88% of companies with good sustainability practices saw improved operational performance

  • Findings indicate that embracing sustainability and circularity do not sacrifice profitability

Green Health:

  • A decrease of 17.4% in hospital total cost of care expenditures per year

  • 25% reduction in annual total costs of care and replacement fees

  • “Findings imply that hospitals rising supply chain costs, which comprise a large percentage of the total cost of care, can be counteracted by digitalizing their supply chains, by implementing and fully exploiting ERP systems,” as part of our 5R Program process

  • Plus others listed as “industry-agnostic” ROI

PROUDLY A GLOBAL PUBLIC BENEFIT CORPORATION

As a social enterprise, we are accountable to generating social impact and profit. While our shared background is in waste prevention, management, sustainable packaging and products, healthcare, technology, and industrial psychology, we consider SDG 3 (good health and well-being) a starting point, using the social and commercial determinant of health framework(s) to tackle the diverse root causes of global SDG inequities and supply chain inefficiencies.
