How Santa Stays Green at the Workshop
Santa has had his share of challenges the past couple of holiday seasons. But when production challenges push processes to the red line, digitalization is how Santa stays green and sustainable.
Last year, Santa had to send his process and control elves home during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Now, he’s dealing with product shortages as supply chains are holding back materials that are necessary to make toys.
But Jolly Old St. Nick stays as cool as the North Pole under pressure. And thanks to his adoption of advanced analytics a few years ago, Santa has the workshop running green.
Workshop on Overtime
There’s no time to waste. The pandemic still is a concern and toys are not making it from factories to store shelves. Santa and his elves are working extra hard to ensure good little boys and girls get their presents this year.
(They checked; there is no shortage of coal for the bad ones).
To keep up the with the demand as Christmas approaches, the equipment in Santa’s workshop is running longer and faster than it ever has.
Keeping his workshop sustainable is Santa’s golden rule. But energy and gases escape when production runs hot. Water can be contaminated and break local and global environmental laws if it isn’t cleaned or recycled properly after use.
Santa’s workshop could turn into a nightmare for the rising Arctic’s carbon footprint. With fewer elves working in the factory, Santa keeps a watchful eye on problems to keep his factory as green as possible.
Sustainability Stats
Santa began using TrendMiner software a few years ago. As a result, he does not have to rely on data scientist elves to interpret data from sensors all through the workshop.
Let’s take a look at a few ways Santa is keeping his workshop green with TrendMiner.
Gifting with Glee
Boys and girls do not have to worry about Santa making it to their homes this year. Just like a Boy Scout, Santa is ready for what comes next.
He’s adapted to working from home during a global pandemic and adopted technologies to help St. Nick’s workshop run more efficiently and with greater sustainability.
With happy, health elves and a green-running workshop, Santa’s early adoption to digitalization—and a little help from Rudolph on foggy nights—will keep his sleigh on time indefinitely.
