Pharmaceutical
Sustainability and Decarbonization
Business challenge
Client’s need for a holistic Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach that considers all stages of the medical product life cycle and all kinds of environmental impact, not just carbon. Medicine production processes must meet many regulatory requirements and receive health authority approvals. Any significant change to the process must go through another approval cycle.
Solution
Atos solution provided digital twins of medicines and vaccines that use historical data collected across the client’s organization to model environmental footprints throughout life-cycle stages. Collaborative Eco-design platform provided environmental simulation and robust metrics for product sustainability.
Key Benefits
- Robust data and methodology for environmental impact assessment, reducing the assessment effort from 6 months to 2 weeks
- Eco-design thinking at the core of product development activities
- Science-based development and collaboration with academics
- Leading position in LCA tools and methodology development
- Coherent communication strategy strengthening the client’s market positioning
- No green-washing

Hydrogen
Sustainability and Decarbonization
Business challenge
Aggressive targets to achieve decarbonization by 2030 and net zero by 2050. Hydrogen economy, a combination of local hydrogen production, storage, and demand, is still in its infancy, facing multiple technology and financial risks. The forecasting and planning are complex which slows down investment decisions.
Solution
Atos solution provided hydrogen hub digital twin that models energy consumption, energy costs, and carbon emissions. It also had an opportunity to build, evaluate and compare multiple hydrogen blending scenarios with a 20-year horizon.
Key Benefits
- Solid framework to evaluate possible approaches and scenarios based on data from the field
- Informed investment decisions
- Clear-cut communication around Hydrogen hub vision and roadmap
Atos engagement roadmap to realizing Digital Twin
A business driven ideation workshop to identify most promising use cases
Atos’ robust consulting approach (Digital Twin 4M-6C Methodology) is based addressing business challenges. The “4M” design thinking approach helps in identifying relevant digital threads which influences the targeted business KPI. Most promising use case is fast tracked into a Proof of Value (PoV) after a quick Digital Twin assessment using the “6C” maturity pyramid.
Digital Twin 4M-6C methodology is:
4M – What to capture (Digital Twin model fidelity)
6C – How to realize (Digital Twin functionality)
