TCS Unveils Digital Tool for Comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment and Reporting

Revolutionizing Environmental Impact Assessment

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is at the forefront of environmental sustainability with the launch of a groundbreaking life cycle assessment (LCA) tool. This innovative digital solution, developed in partnership with PRé Sustainability, empowers organizations to comprehensively assess and report on the environmental impact of their product lines.

Cloud-Agnostic and Open Source

TCS's LCA tool is engineered with a cloud-agnostic architecture and leverages open-source technologies, ensuring seamless deployment across diverse cloud platforms. This flexibility aligns with TCS's commitment to providing accessible and scalable solutions to its clients.

TCS Product Life Cycle Profiler

The core of this transformative tool lies in the TCS Product Life Cycle Profiler. It offers the unique capability to perform simultaneous LCAs for all products originating from a specific manufacturing facility. By doing so, it delivers a holistic view of environmental impact, encompassing factors such as materials, transportation, suppliers, energy consumption, and processes.

Beyond Greenhouse Gas Emissions

TCS's LCA tool goes beyond conventional assessments by calculating environmental impact across multiple dimensions. This includes considerations beyond greenhouse gas emissions, such as human toxicity, water use, ozone depletion, and particulate matter. By highlighting impact hotspots, the tool equips organizations with valuable insights to drive sustainable changes.

Advancing Climate Goals

Suranjan Chatterjee, TCS Global Head for Strategic Capabilities Group, emphasized the tool's potential to support clients in advancing their climate goals. The TCS Product Life Cycle Profiler enables organizations to identify areas where adjustments can be made in their product value chains to enhance sustainability.
