GreenDelta will support data governance together with other experts from the LCA community. Publication of data then becomes an ongoing and transparent process that is greatly accelerated. Moreover, the data can be extended and improved upon by the community through an integrated peer-reviewed publishing workflow, comparable to GIT for software.
This allows product teams to model and analyze their products with criteria such as costs, regulations, and substance risks, throughout their supply chain. Makersite enriches the LCA data with other information such as regulatory, chemical, and/or substance data. To complete this task, the companies enabled a data exchange between GreenDelta’ s OpenLCA data catalogue, and Makersite’s data platform. All data has been connected as extendable process flows, netting over 600,000 environmental impacts for over 20,000 industrial products and processes, mostly available as open data under a CC-BY license From now on, large parts of GreenDelta’s OpenLCA data catalog, the world’s largest inventory of product life-cycle data, are available on Makersite’s cloud-based data platform. Environmental consultant GreenDelta, and Makersite GmbH, a data and technology company focused on product intelligence, have joined forces to seamlessly connect the world’s life-cycle data, augment it with other information, and enable faster, distributed collaboration for product sustainability professionals.
