About 
Manufacturing

Our client, a leading medical device manufacturer, is driven by a mission to transform the treatment of calcified cardiovascular disease. Their commitment to making lasting positive impacts extends beyond patients' lives to include their environmental footprint. They are ambitious in their aim to establish a leading Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy, which is where Minimum comes in.

Why Minimum, impact Minimum had, outcomes for client:

Acknowledging the pressing challenge of climate change, the company committed to minimizing its own contributions. They had begun collecting data on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in 2021 but needed a platform to streamline this process and produce reliable carbon calculations to support their reduction efforts.

Collecting Emissions Data:

Minimum served as the single GHG system of record, consolidating activity data from multiple stakeholders and data sources. This enabled the client's team to identify data gaps and ensure the data collection process could adapt as the business continues to grow. The modular nature of the Minimum solution was quickly and easily mapped to the client's operational structure.

Calculating Carbon Footprint:

Minimum's carbon accounting software automates the calculation of the client's carbon emissions across their entire operations, adjusting for changes in local emission factors and units of measure. A comprehensive Scope 1 and 2 footprint is readily available on the platform for the senior leadership team, which meets periodically to scrutinize, measure, and monitor environmental aspects of their operations.

Driving Action:

A robust and transparent GHG Emission platform was a core requirement for the client to deliver on their new ESG goals. They are working towards achieving ISO 14001 certification and needed a method to systematically review and act on environmental management. Using Minimum allows them to assess the direct impact of several energy-saving projects including:

  • Increasing electric vehicle chargers and upgrading to data-gathering smart chargers for optimized usage
  • Investing in comprehensive facilities control systems to better understand their impact
  • Adapting facilities to use free cooling and air dampers
  • Centralizing control of thermostats
  • Exploring ways to reduce air-conditioning usage, such as by tinting windows
Call to action:
