Carbon and ESG module
Carbon and ESG: a report is built on records, not on spreadsheets
When the carbon and sustainability report is pulled together from spreadsheets at year end, it takes a long time and the origin of a figure cannot be shown back down the line. This page describes the planned scope for carbon and ESG reporting.
This page is written for sustainability and reporting teams and for the people who collect the data on site.
What the scope covers
- The source of the data is visibleThe aim is to see which record every value in the report came from.
- Indicator setDefining the indicators that are followed in one place is part of the planned scope.
- Indicator ownershipKeeping the owner of each indicator and its update frequency on record is part of the design.
- Closing the periodThe aim is to close the reporting period and keep the data traceable afterwards.
- OutputProducing the report output from the same records is part of the planned scope.
