Software providers of both ESG/sustainability software and adjacent areas such as ERP and supply chain solutions are key stakeholders in the emissions ecosystem in that they will provide software solutions and services enabling the capture, tracking, and sharing of GHG data. As some of these solutions run on cloud services, then the hyperscalers are also stakeholders. In addition, these firms all have their own emissions and carbon footprints to be concerned with as well.
The Open Footprint® Standard Data Model is the adaptable emissions data model that will provide a universal data structure amongst and between data and software platforms across the value chain, leading to reduced costs in customer implementation, data collection and consolidation, and improved data quality.
ESG software solution providers benefit from:
- Enable clients to more easily ingest data from the ecosystem of Open Footprint compliant sources
- Leverage the Open Footprint brand and credibility associated with certified interoperability
- Gain access to a larger market
