Where stakeholders in Canada, the United States, and Mexico design sustainable industrial systems that work for everyone.

We have a challenge ahead of us.

Our industrial systems are not optimized for sustainability or profitability. The truth is, neither marketplace dynamics nor vested interest lobbying lead to smart supply chains. From natural resources and agriculture to production, consumption, and recycling, our society must redesign its fragmented industrial systems.

Why do we need to meet this head-on?

Civilization on a resource-limited planet cannot thrive without a new level of thinking, planning, and investing. Right now, we are missing out on crucial opportunities to improve efficiency, sustainability, and profits.

How does OnTrackNorthAmerica address this problem?

IntelliSynthesis brings stakeholders together to solve problems that single organizations cannot, powering OnTrackNorthAmerica's Industrial Systems Initiatives. Collaborative Industrial Optimization aligns competing interests around shared objectives that unlock profitable, sustainable growth.

These methodologies drive real initiatives: VitalRail expands continental rail infrastructure. RE-FOREST creates sustainable forestry supply chains. RE-STEM optimizes essential minerals logistics. RE-GLASS transforms glass manufacturing and transport. Each demonstrates how freight rail expansion unlocks opportunities across interconnected industries.

Explore our Industrial Systems Initiatives or visit the Curriculum section to understand the methodologies that make it work.
