Bain & Company has entered a strategic partnership with climate-tech firm Terralytiq to help global corporations decarbonize their supply chains—especially Scope 3 emissions, which remain among the most difficult to address.

This expanded collaboration builds on a series of successful joint projects since 2023 and now enables AI-powered carbon optimization across supply chains. The partnership merges Bain’s business transformation and strategic expertise with Terralytiq’s advanced decarbonization intelligence platform.

The alliance offers C-suite decision-makers automated insights at the supplier and facility levels. Clients will gain the ability to:

“Early adopters of our solutions have been known to cut Scope 3 data-collection time by up to 70% while identifying multimillion-dollar cost and risk savings,” said Alexander Pfeiffer, co-founder and CEO of Terralytiq.

The offering also positions companies to monetize low-carbon products, giving them a commercial edge as investor and regulatory pressures mount. The joint solution is already being used across energy, manufacturing, tech, and financial services sectors, with plans to expand into more industries throughout 2025.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Bain at a global level to remain at the forefront of worldwide decarbonization efforts,” added Pfeiffer. “We’re providing valuable insights to executives tasked with hard wiring resilience into their value chains as they simultaneously cut emissions.”

For CEOs and executives balancing sustainability goals with geopolitical and economic challenges, this partnership offers a scalable, actionable solution to reduce emissions while enhancing profitability and operational resilience.
