Vancouver, Wash.: Glassdome , a leading industrial software company, is helping build a greener, more resilient future for the vehicle supplier industry through membership in MEMA: The Vehicle Suppliers Association .
Glassdome will mark its arrival as a featured guest and sponsor in MEMA’s Sustainability Hour podcast on October 28th, discussing the ever-stricter sustainability requirements of automakers like Stellantis and BMW .
MEMA represents the largest manufacturing sector in the United States, bringing together an industry responsible for 4.8 million jobs. It champions and advances the business interests of vehicle suppliers and the mobility industry, fostering a growing, profitable, innovative, and influential supplier industry.
Glassdome has already built a strong foothold in the automotive market. Automotive suppliers like LG Electronics and Lotte Infracell , manufacturers and service providers across the EV battery supply chain, and light automotive constructors all trust Glassdome’s Continuous Improvement and Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) solutions.
The global auto industry aims to be carbon neutral by 2050. To fulfill that goal, many automakers are demanding that their suppliers calculate the PCF of their components, and get a third-party to verify that those numbers are accurate. Glassdome provides complete, consulting-backed support for carbon emission data collection, monitoring, and reporting throughout the manufacturing process for automotive suppliers like LG Electronics and Lotte Infracell.
Increased efficiency helps make that goal a reality. The Glassdome CI solution helps manufacturers see, understand, and solve their process inefficiencies in real time using real data pulled from the factory floor. The result is lower downtime, increased OEE, and better productivity.
In March, Glassdome achieved ISO 14067 certification from Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance , a global certification body. This streamlines the PCF verification process for customers by ensuring that the reports they create with Glassdome already match the highest international standards.
Glassdome North American Director of Sustainability Brent Morin commented, “This is an incredible opportunity to bring together an industry dedicated to building up the American vehicle supplier industry with cutting-edge technology designed to help it respond to increasingly rigorous demands from automakers, governments, and consumers now and in the future.”
