FEATURED PROJECT
Client:
Brooks Sports
​
Project:
Product and Supply Chain Eco-Footprint / Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
Client's Needs:
Brooks wanted an environmental footprint of their products and supply chain to understand their “hotspot” issues and opportunities for improvement.
About the Project
Shift Advantage generated an Eco-Footprint / Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the materials, manufacturing processes, and packaging for Brooks’ popular apparel and footwear products.
Approach:
Shift Advantage assessed Books most popular footwear and apparel products to provide an Eco-Footprint / Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). We worked with Brooks’ product creation and sourcing teams, as well as their manufacturers, material suppliers, and packaging vendors to collect data. We then analyzed the data to developed relevant and clear information for Brooks.
​
Results:
Shift Advantage generated an Eco-Footprint / Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the materials, manufacturing processes, and packaging associated with Brooks’ popular apparel and footwear products. We created reports and PowerPoint slides with a summary of the results, identifying environmental hotspots and opportunities to reduce the impacts. Shift Advantage facilitated sessions with Brooks’ leadership and decision makers to ensure there was an understanding of the results, and to create relevant goals and actions to reduce the impacts.
