Wolters Kluwer Enablon and Makersite announce strategic collaboration to help enterprises reach ESG goals
CHICAGO, Feb. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Manufacturing enterprises will more easily be able to progress toward achieving Net Zero and reaching their ESG (environmental, social, governance) goals, thanks to a new strategic collaboration between and . The two industry leaders will help organizations manage Net Zero ambitions through decarbonizing supply chains. This involves data collection, modelling, reporting, planning, forecasting, and operational execution across all of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
“The ability to provide auditable and actionable insights for Scope 3 GHG emissions has been the missing piece in Net Zero ambitions,” said Laurent Dechaux, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, Wolters Kluwer Enablon. “Working with Makersite makes it easier to track these insights related to upstream and downstream activity from within an organization’s supply chain. When paired with our existing Scope 1 and Scope 2 capabilities, we can provide a more complete view of GHG emissions throughout the supply chain.”
Enablon is the world’s leading provider of integrated software solutions for risk and compliance, engineering and operations, ESG, and sustainability. Makersite, a Germany-based startup, is a world leader in bringing sustainability and cost insights into the early-stage design process of product manufacturing. The two companies will work to provide consistent and consolidated reporting for clients to reach the shared goal of achieving Net Zero.
