Problem

The global fluids and lubricant market is expected to shrink slightly over the next 5 years due to 2 factors:

 	the advancement of lubricant technology which extends lubricant drain intervals, and
 	the shift to electric vehicles (EVs) in major markets.





The maritime sector is also going through transformation with its efforts to decarbonise using low carbon fuels like LNG and other alternative fuels like biofuels and ammonia.




In the future, businesses will increasingly want to publicly communicate their carbon footprint of products (CFPs) through the following ways:

 	providing information to consumers and others for decision-making purposes
 	enhance climate change awareness and consumer engagement on environmental issues
 	supporting a company's commitment to tackling climate change
 	support implementation of policies on climate change management





The CFPs also drive the need for these businesses to actively work towards green solutions. To assist these businesses to address cost competitiveness and sustainability for continued business viability, programmes and initiatives have to be provided as necessary tools, and ALIA has the solution for this.

Solution

At ALIA, we aim to help businesses address cost competitiveness and sustainability through programmes and initiatives.




Cost competitiveness is addressed by optimizing total system cost with improved operating efficiencies and inventory reduction through the following:

 	AP Lubricants Ecosystem Study for full value chain analysis
 	Industry-wide collaborative programs using cloud platform (digitalization)

 	Supply chain modelling template
 	C-Product online marketplace


 	Facilitate knowledge development & sharing activities





Sustainability is achieved by:

 	AP Lubricants Sustainability Roadmap

 	Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)
 	Industry-applicable climate change mitigating and adaptive solutions
 	Individual members’ strategies & timelines
 	Value creation initiatives to compensate likely value destruction situations


 	Slop/waste management
