BICEPS: Boosting Initiatives for Collaborative Emission-reduction with the Power of Shippers The BICEPS Network is a network of shippers joining forces to accelerate the transition in the global shipping sector towards more sustainability. Our mission is to boost initiatives and create momentum for the implementation of sustainability solutions in the shipping sector by using the power of demand of shippers. The BICEPS Network activities to reach our goals are: ▪ Creating a network of shippers, and committed partners who want to make a difference in sustainability. ▪ Applying the BICEPS Rating System in the shipper's global procurement processes taking the actual sustainability performance of the ocean freight container carriers into account. ▪ Organizing events and workshops to stimulate an active dialogue between shippers and carriers and other chain partners. ▪ Creating awareness of successful cleaner technologies and innovations. ▪ Connecting parties to leverage on best practices in creating sustainable supply chains. ▪ Stimulating an innovative sustainable eco-system in shipping and supply chains; by giving innovations the opportunity to challenge the 'market-fit' of their products and services, and supporting the matching for innovations with clients and investors to up-scale developments. The BICEPS Network will, in collaboration with the sector chain partners, create impact in: the reduction of emissions of CO2, sulphur and black carbon, the treatment of (on-board) waste, the biodiversity impact of ballast water, the end-of-life cycle programs for vessels.
