CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY

ISciences helps companies understand and manage their exposure to environmental risks throughout the value chain.

Forward looking companies realize that environmental stresses pose both business risks and opportunities.  A recent survey of more than 50 large U.S.-based companies found that a majority expected water to have significant impacts on business growth, profitability, siting decisions by 2018.  Almost a third of responding companies expect water stress to affect their ability to market products by 2018. ISciences works with large companies in the food and beverage, agricultural processing, retail, and pharmaceutical sectors to assess environmental risk to their facilities, supply chains, and customers.  ISciences analytics are used to frame environmental strategy in the boardroom and guide changes in corporate behavior in large decentralized business cultures.

ISciences helps companies assess risks to industrial accidents or sabotage.  In this example, ISciences located and characterized vulnerable day and night time populations in the vicinity of major industrial sites.  This analysis was used to support regulatory compliance and to guide corporate mitigation and response strategies.

Many analyses reported in ISciences-authored blog posts are based on data generated by the ISciences Water Security Indicator Model (WSIM). Other sources, if used, are referenced in footnotes accompanying individual posts. WSIM is a validated capability that produces monthly reports on current and forecast global freshwater surpluses and deficits with lead times of 1-9 months at 0.25°x0.25° resolution. This capability has been in continuous operation since April 2011 and has proven to provide reliable forecasts of emerging water security concerns in that time-frame. WSIM has the ability to assess the impacts of water anomalies on people, agriculture, and electricity generation. Detailed data, customized visualizations, and reports are available for purchase.
