Sustainability Competitive Benchmarking - Heavy Duty Trucking Industry Purpose Our goal is to better understand how sustainability is being defined, implemented, and communicated by other OEMs in the commercial trucking and freight sector. We want to explore: 1. What sustainability features are competitors offering? 2. How are they incorporating lifecycle thinking - from design to end of life? 3. How are they positioning sustainability as a product differentiator? 4. And what technologies, certifications, and partnerships are they using to back up their claims? Scope We are asking for your support in conducting a structured, in-depth analysis of how key OEMs in the heavy-duty trucking space are approaching sustainability – both in terms of implementation and strategic positioning. Your research will focus on three POVs, each with its own set of focus points: 1. Strategic Frameworks and Industry Benchmarks 2. Technology and Supply Chain Feasibility 3. Future Strategy, Regulations and Metrics Final Deliverable 1. Comparative Metric or Scoring System 2. Gap and Best Practice Analysis 3. Actionable Recommendations: Propose 3–5 measurable and practical steps 4. Format: No formal research or white paper – would prefer a PowerPoint or similar format that effectively communicates findings and recommendations.
