The EU means business: by 2030, commercial vehicle manufacturers must significantly reduce their CO₂ emissions. Failure to meet fleet targets can result in millions in fines. At the same time, customers are demanding more sustainable and efficient solutions.
For OEMs and suppliers, this means:
New powertrain technologies (EVs, hydrogen, hybrid) must hit the market faster.
Production processes need higher efficiency – less material waste, less downtime.
Projects can’t afford delays anymore – every week of slippage costs millions.
The key question is: How can manufacturers keep complex projects on track while ensuring CO₂ targets are met?
Many companies still rely on manual methods – Excel, PowerPoint, endless emails. The result:
Lack of transparency: Project status is rarely visible in real time.
High error rates: Data is updated manually and quickly becomes outdated.
Slow reaction times: Problems are often discovered too late.
In CO₂-critical projects – like introducing new powertrains or improving production efficiency – this can be disastrous.
This is where digital project management comes in:
Real-Time Transparency
Dashboards highlight delays or resource issues immediately. Managers can react before CO₂ targets are at risk.
Centralized Data
All stakeholders – from OEMs to suppliers – work on the same platform. No silos, no misunderstandings.
Resource Efficiency
Digital tools minimize planning errors, avoid duplication, and optimize material use – directly contributing to CO₂ reduction.
Proactive Control
Early warning systems flag deviations before they escalate. No more “firefighting mode” – instead, forward-looking project control.
A leading commercial vehicle OEM faced the challenge of launching a new low-emission model on time.
Manually managed:
Project progress visible only in weekly reports
Supply chain issues spotted too late
Weeks of delays, heavy fines looming
Digitally managed with COMAN:
Milestones monitored in real time
Supplier status transparent for all stakeholders
Automated alerts for deviations
Result: Project stayed on schedule, CO₂ targets achieved
The EU’s CO₂ regulations are no paper tiger – they define the competitiveness of entire companies. Digital project management is the key to meeting climate goals, minimizing risks, and successfully delivering projects.
Companies investing in tools like COMAN gain a double advantage:
Lower CO₂ thanks to efficiency and transparency
Lower costs by avoiding delays and penalties
