Bureau Veritas launches new supply chain engagement tool

AITrack Solutions, a subsidiary of Bureau Veritas, has unveiled a new Supply Chain Engagement solution designed to provide organisations with granular visibility into value chain emissions. The platform aims to move companies beyond broad industry estimates by integrating primary, supplier-specific data into their sustainability reporting and procurement strategies.

The new tool expands AITrack’s existing corporate and product footprinting capabilities, allowing businesses to collect and validate Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) directly from their vendors.

Measuring Scope 3 emissions—those produced by a company’s suppliers—has long been a significant hurdle for corporate climate targets due to a lack of primary data. The AITrack solution addresses this by equipping suppliers with expert-built LCA tools to generate defensible product impact data, thereby reducing the technical barriers often faced by smaller vendors.

“Supply chain emissions remain one of the biggest challenges for organisations pursuing credible sustainability progress,” said Rui Fernandes Teixeira, Interim CEO of AITrack Solutions and VP of Global Sales & Marketing Sustainability. “We are helping organisations move toward product-specific, supplier-powered insights at scale. The result is better data, stronger supplier collaboration, and a trusted foundation for market differentiation.”

The solution introduces several automated features to streamline the complex process of supply chain data collection:

  • Supplier engagement campaigns: Automated systems for invitations, reminders, and progress tracking to manage large-scale vendor outreach.
  • Intelligent quality grading: A system that accepts various submission types (EPD, LCA, PCF) and applies a quality grade based on the level of third-party assurance.
  • Supplier-powered calculation: Integrated calculators with automated mass-balance checks to help suppliers without in-house expertise produce reliable results.
  • Audit-ready integration: High-confidence data is fed directly into corporate Scope 3 inventories with a full audit trail to simplify the external assurance process.

By aligning procurement, sustainability, and product teams around a single source of verified data, the platform enables businesses to prioritise “hotspots”—the specific suppliers or components responsible for the majority of their environmental impact. This targeted approach is designed to reduce “supplier fatigue” while accelerating the path toward decarbonisation.
