to end, which involves planning, develop- ment, manufacturing and delivery. PepsiCo is currently undergoing a transformation in how the company’s processes are organ- ized. That includes a digitally engaged value chain to increase speed, with information in the right hands and consistent data to make the best decisions.

Regarding the transforma- tion, he comments: “Combining [Scope] 1 and 2 leads to less waste coming from better decisions. Still we base many deci- sions on assumptions and are rolling out global Integrated Business Planning, digitally. With the help of o9, PepsiCo is creating scenario planning, which com- bines supply planning, financial fore- casting and demand planning.”
