Seeking novel proposals for the management and dynamic allocation of resources in a post-Covid-19 work setting • 30% improvement in resource utilization. • 30% increase in overall productivity • Improved employee retention rates due to solution enabling novel employment practices (e.g. reduced working hours for highly productive employees, etc.) • 50% reduction in instances of manpower imbalances caused due to poor recruitment / over recruitment of personnel. The solution should be one which the industry would readily accept and adopt, with minimal resistance from employees. It should enable warehouse operators to efficiently measure, improve, recognize, retain and reward the worker based on their productivity level. With such a solution, it would enable effective management of the workforce in post-COVID19 world.

Seeking novel materials and technologies to deliver new and improved performance to packaging.PepsiCo seeks to identify materials and technologies that can deliver new and improved performance to their packaging. In particular, we are seeking materials that can provide increased functionality in a few key areas: 1. Circular economy/Sustainability • With increased scrutiny on single-use packaging, PepsiCo is interested in new materials and technology that enable packaging to be reused at end of life, preferable again as packaging for the same product. • For some materials that are not readily reusable or recyclable, degradation is the preferred end-of-life. As such, PepsiCo is interested in packaging with unique pre- & post-consumer functionality, such as edible, dissolvable, or compostable films. 2. Functionality • E-Commerce: With the rise of the internet economy and increased consumer demand for online shipping, PepsiCo is interested in materials technologies that deliver new and different functionalities (e.g. protection, authentication of freshness) to the primary and secondary packaging used for e-commerce. Please note: all proposed technologies must have advanced beyond the conceptual stage.
