19 Jul 2021 CW Team

Holcim is introducing a play industry-leading Transport Analytics Center (TAC) in 35 plants of ACC and Ambuja in India to streamline its planning for efficiency, road safety, and sustainability.

Currently, TAC is following over 20,000 trucks via several data sources like in-vehicle monitoring system (IVMS), ERP, NFC, RFID, and others for high-level analytics and artificial intelligence applications.

Transportation accounts for nearly a fifth of the world's emissions, and moving forward with more limits is a necessary part of the Net-Zero pledge of ACC and Ambuja Cement. TAC, implemented in India in 2018, was established with the aim of monitoring road safety KPIs, which benefited both the firms to accomplish about 75% km without any safety violations and a 60% decrease in offsite incidents.

TAC provided data analytics daily to the Driver Management Center (DMC) in each of the 35 plans for concentrated intervention in the form of training and instructing the drivers to improve their driving performance.

This intervention helped proactively at-risk drivers. Whereas it also enables Transporters engagement in the procedure and makes sure drivers’ participation with a structured reward and recognition program. The technology and method are still a benchmark in the Indian cement industry.

TAC has taken necessary steps to constantly reduce its environmental footprint with its scope three emissions target.

On its net-zero journey, Holcim established its industry’s first scope 3 emissions decrease target to reduce its Scope 3 emissions associated with transportation and fuels by 20% in 2030.
