Worldly has launched a Product Impact Calculator, the first solution to seamlessly integrate primary supply chain data with pre-built product impact models to deliver actionable Scope 3 insights.
- Based on Worldly’s unique ability to gather standardised primary supply chain data at scale, this solution would enable apparel and consumer goods companies to quickly get actionable, auditable, and granular Scope 3 measurements of their product lines.
- The Product Impact Calculator comes at a critical time for meeting reduction targets and upcoming reporting requirements.
THE CALCULATOR: The PIC enables sustainability teams to automate time-consuming, spreadsheet-based calculations by leveraging Worldly’s technology and in-depth product and materials data.
- It empowers them to progressively increase calculation accuracy and actionability by using their own purchase orders, supply chain operations data and product specifications.
- To further refine each purchase order’s associated emissions, current Worldly customers can easily integrate their primary supply chain data from the Higg Index —the value chain environmental and social impact measurement methodology and suite of tools developed and owned by global nonprofit alliance Cascale (formerly the Sustainable Apparel Coalition) and exclusively available on Worldly.
- Companies using the Product Impact Calculator for reporting on Scope 3 emissions can have the confidence that they will be audit-ready, since the product’s methodology already has limited assurance from Apex.
- The Product Impact Calculator announcement follows Worldly’s recent launch of Facility Data Manager, which enables companies to get primary, validated environmental data from their supply chain as often as monthly.
WHAT THEY SAID:
The Product Impact Calculator gives apparel and consumer goods companies a much-needed foundation for measuring Scope 3 emissions of their product lines. We have assembled all the ingredients for them to get an accurate reading of their GHG emissions, and this tool gives them an easily customizable experience where they do not have to start from scratch, but can use existing primary data from their own supply chain.
