ESG & sustainability

An audit-ready footprint,across all three scopes.

We build greenhouse gas inventories to the GHG Protocol that hold up under assurance, across Scope 1, 2 and the Scope 3 value chain. It is the baseline every credible target, disclosure and carbon position depends on.

01The work

Built once, and it serves every framework.

A complete inventory with a defensible boundary, aligned to BRSR, IFRS S2 and CDP, and the data systems that make each year's disclosure cheaper than the last.

Scope 3 is, for most companies, the majority of the footprint and now commercially unavoidable for exporters and EU suppliers. Built once, the inventory serves every framework at once.

Primary supplier data replaces industry averages and produces a more accurate, more defensible footprint. That work is covered under supplier and value-chain ESG.

02The three scopes

What sits inside your boundary, and what sits beyond it.

Scope 3 is, for most companies, the majority of the footprint — and now commercially unavoidable for exporters and EU suppliers.

The three GHG Protocol scopesConcentric bands: each wider band encloses the one inside it. Scope 3Scope 2Scope 1 Scope 3 Value chain Purchased goods and services, transport,use of sold products, and everything elseupstream and downstream. Usually the largest. Scope 2 Purchased energy Electricity, steam, heating and coolingbought and consumed. Scope 1 Direct emissions Owned or controlled sources:combustion, process, fleet, fugitive.

Each band encloses the one inside it. A claim that stops at Scope 1 and 2 answers only the innermost question.

03Why it matters

Every target, every disclosure and every carbon position rests on this one number.

Which is why it has to be built to survive assurance the first time, rather than rebuilt when an auditor asks how the boundary was drawn.

05Questions

Answered plainly.

Direct emissions, purchased energy, and value-chain emissions. Scope 3 is usually the largest.

It varies by jurisdiction, but exporters and EU suppliers are asked for it regardless. Building it early is the defensible choice.

It depends on how much activity data already exists and how many sites are in scope. We scope honestly at the outset rather than discovering the gap halfway through.
