"Our customers integrate sustainability into their decision-making processes and what-if analysis to reduce the environmental impact on their supply chains," said Dr. Jeff Karrenbauer, president of INSIGHT, Inc. "Green initiatives within the supply chain should include developing a strategic plan, optimizing the design and execution of the entire network, establishing strategic sourcing alternatives, developing risk mitigation plans and implementing sound S&OP practices, all in light of the impacts on profit, energy consumption and carbon emissions.

Suitable advanced analytical tools provide the means necessary to successfully address these complex trade-offs."
