Why not just use our ESG platform for product footprint questions?

ESG platforms are usually built for company-level reporting. Product footprint questions need product-level data, lifecycle logic and outputs that teams can use in product and customer workflows.

Full answer

ESG software can be useful for corporate reporting, disclosure workflows and company-level emissions management. But customer and product teams often need a different level of detail.

 

When the question is about a specific product, material choice, comparison or claim, product-level footprint data becomes more important than general company reporting data.

 

  • Use ESG platforms for corporate reporting workflows
  • Use product footprint data for product-level questions
  • Avoid answering product questions with only company averages
  • Connect both layers where needed

Example

A customer asks for the footprint of one product, but the ESG system only contains company-level emissions data.
