With input and direction from the ALC, The Neutral
Group developed web-based software for the ALC, Lead
Logistics Providers and their distribution centers (DCs), called
the Sustainability Footprint Assessment (SFA). The SFA collects
energy consumption, refrigerant use and waste data from DCs and
applies a unique benchmarking model to produce reports containing
energy efficiency scores, carbon footprint and financial information.
Reports extend from individual DCs and their truck fleets through
country and company groupings to the regional level. Registered
SFA users include personnel in all 56 subscriber DCs, their regional
management and McDonald’s market and APMEA zone-level staff.
