FAQs
Do you have questions about implementing Green Procurement as a cargo owner? We've compiled answers to common inquiries based on our experience helping procurement teams validate offers and drive sustainable value.
In a developing market, methodologies and claims can vary significantly between suppliers. Independent validation ensures that the emission reductions promised in a tender are accurate, achievable, and calculated using standard methodologies. This protects you from greenwashing and ensures you get what you pay for.
Suppliers often charge a premium for low-emission services. By validating the actual carbon reduction potential of an offer, shipzero provides you with the data to determine if the price premium is justified. This allows you to challenge offers where the cost per tonne of CO₂ reduced is too high compared to market benchmarks.
Yes. Our simulation capabilities allow you to model different tender scenarios. You can see exactly how choosing Supplier A over Supplier B affects your overall carbon footprint and your progress toward your decarbonization roadmap targets, enabling you to make the best strategic choice.
Averages hide opportunities. By filtering reduction potential on a lane-level, we identify specific routes where switching to intermodal transport or sustainable fuels is most viable and impactful. This allows your team to act short-term on "low-hanging fruit" rather than waiting for a system-wide overhaul.
Decarbonization often involves extra costs that need to be justified. By providing clear insights into the cost-effectiveness of reductions on specific trade lanes, we provide the data needed to align procurement with other budget holders. This ensures that funds are allocated to the measures that deliver the highest reduction per dollar spent.
