Case Study: Expeditors streamlines sustainability data tracking with Scope 5

Expeditors Discovers a Simple, Powerful Way to Manage Complex Sustainability Data

Expeditors, a global logistics firm, needed a better way to track its sustainability data across 227 facilities worldwide. The company had been relying on spreadsheets and manual collection methods to measure electricity, fuel, waste, water, and paper use, which made reporting slow, difficult, and inconsistent. Scope 5 provided the cloud-based software tool used to replace this cumbersome process.

Using Scope 5, Expeditors was able to centralize environmental data, generate clear charts and real-time insights, and support Carbon Disclosure Project reporting. The system helped the company increase its CDP score by 20%, save at least 400 employee hours in the first year, and uncover cost-saving opportunities such as $53,039 in electricity savings and $26,000 from “trash to cash” recycling efforts. Scope 5 also improved employee engagement by making sustainability tracking easier and more visual.
