This
Road Map Self Assessment Tool contains a list of focus areas that relate to
sustainable transport. Intelligent
and varied usage of the tool will allow you to take steps in your own
organisation to plan for and seek to deliver savings in the distance travelled
on the road, and savings in the cost of operating transport.

Measurement - KPI's and savings calculator
The Road Map lists a number of KPI's to enable companies to assess the efficiency of their sustainable transport operations. The project team have issued a desciption of these KPI's and guidance on how to calculate savings, based on ECR UK recommendations.

Challenges
In
constructing the Road Map the project team have highlighted a number of
challenges that may be encountered on the journey to sustainable transport.
The purpose of the challenge papers is not to provide a solution to the issues
that will arise. The challenge papers highlight the potential issues,
and offer practical suggestions that will help companies to reduce the
environmental impact of transport in
Case
Studies
To
indicate the ways in which others have overcome some of the challenges whilst
moving through the maturity levels of the road map, we have compiled a number of
case studies from our own experience. The case studies provide
inspiration to organisations that are seeking to deliver sustainable transport.
These case studies come from practitioners in the FMCG supply chain arena on the
project team. We recognise that each organisation is individual and
will need to deal with issues in their own way. Through the case studies
we seek to indicate a way forward, and provide inspiration to your organisation
to take up the challenge and make a difference to deliver fewer, friendlier
miles now!
The
case studies have been provided by members of the project team with the aim to
help other organisations find ways to move towards delivering sustainable
transport. The material in this document does not offer any
recommendation of the approach that should be taken by an organisation in developing
their own sustainable transport activities. No guarantees of performance
or savings realised are made or implied.
