Carbon Accounting
A defensible carbon footprint across Scope 1, 2 and 3 - governed, auditable, and refreshed automatically.
A managed carbon accounting capability built on Microsoft Sustainability Manager that consolidates Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions with the right methodology and emission factors, replaces fragile spreadsheets with a governed data model, and keeps your footprint audit-ready all year.
Accelerate business value with Carbon Accounting
Most carbon footprints live in a spreadsheet that one person understands. Factors go stale, methodology is inconsistent, restatements are painful, and every audit re-opens the same questions. As emissions data moves from a voluntary nice-to-have to an assured financial disclosure, the spreadsheet stops being good enough.
We build carbon accounting on Microsoft Sustainability Manager: a governed data model with the correct activity-based and spend-based methodologies, a maintained emission-factor library, automated data ingestion, and full restatement history. Your footprint becomes a repeatable, auditable process instead of an annual scramble.
Scope 1, 2 & 3 model
A complete emissions model with activity-based and spend-based methods applied correctly to each category.
- Location and market-based Scope 2
- Activity and spend-based Scope 3
- Category-appropriate methodology
Maintained factor library
NGER, GHG Protocol and market factors kept current, so your footprint does not silently drift out of date.
- NGER factor sets
- GHG Protocol alignment
- Annual factor refresh
Automated ingestion
Connectors pull utility, fleet, travel and finance data in, replacing manual re-keying and copy-paste errors.
- Utility bill ingestion
- Travel and expense feeds
- Finance and procurement data
Restatement & audit trail
Version history and data lineage on every figure, so restatements are controlled and audits are quick.
- Full restatement history
- Data lineage to source
- Approval workflows
