Tracera, an AI-driven sustainability data management platform, has launched an automated Scope 3 data collection tool to enhance supply chain emissions tracking. The latest upgrade enables companies to deanonymise supply chain data, providing accurate and verifiable carbon footprint calculations.
The tool is designed to help large corporations improve environmental reporting and meet global sustainability regulations, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), California climate laws, Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP).
Scope 3 emissions —which account for indirect emissions across a company’s supply chain —are among the most challenging to measure and reduce. Traditional methods often rely on broad estimates, limiting companies’ ability to take data-driven climate action.
Tracera’s AI-powered Scope 3 tool simplifies emissions reporting by establishing a baseline for Scope 3 emissions using AI-driven analysis, delivering supplier-specific emissions data with granular categorisation. Also, it integrates seamlessly with procurement systems for automated data collection, enables direct engagement with suppliers to verify emissions data and ensures audit-ready transparency to support regulatory compliance.
Tracera, formerly known as ESG Flo, operates in the US and Europe, assisting companies in navigating complex sustainability regulations through automated emissions tracking and AI-driven data verification. The platform’s automated emission factor matching replicates the analytical process of environmental consultants, improving data accuracy and compliance with climate regulations.
Amy Vernon, Director of Global Product Compliance and Sustainability at La-Z-Boy Incorporated, highlighted the efficiency of Tracera’s technology, “What used to take us weeks of manually researching hundreds of vendors to understand their emissions impact is now automated. It has saved us countless hours and turned a daunting process into something manageable.”
With global regulatory requirements becoming more stringent, Tracera’s Scope 3 emissions tool offers businesses a way to meet sustainability targets, improve ESG compliance, and enhance supply chain transparency.
