D.W. Morgan Gets Green Supply Chain Award

Nov 07, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- The D.W. Morgan Company, a supply-chain management and transportation logistics services firm, said that it is profiled in Supply & Demand Chain Executive's 2009 Green Supply Chain Award issue.



Each year the magazine honors companies that demonstrate policies and initiatives that contribute to the health of the environment by reducing the consumption of energy and natural resources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and recycling materials used in their daily operations.

"Your leadership in this important area has made you stand out among your peers," the magazine's editors said.



Morgan analyzes the movement of goods to identify efficiencies in terms of shipment consolidation, route traveled, mode of transportation and the elimination of unnecessary moves. By completely redesigning supply chains, it saves not just money but also carbon.

For example, Morgan initiated a transportation mode shift for Mattson Technologies by moving large, heavy electronic components from air freight to ocean, increasing transportation efficiencies, reducing fuel consumption and reducing overall costs.

"Introducing supply chain efficiencies makes sense economically as well as ecologically, which is why we integrate green policies into our business model as well as our corporate social responsibility program," said David W. Morgan, CEO and founder of D.W. Morgan Company. "It's not only good for business, it's good for the planet." The company said that it also identifies operational areas where it can reduce its impact on the environment. At Morgan, the paper waybill has gone the way of the dodo bird. With the rollout of its iPhone-based mobile communications system, the firm operates more efficiently and eliminates roughly 50,000 paper way bills annually. This removes 150,000 pieces of paper--a stack as tall as a five story building--from the consumption cycle each year.
