Reduced greenhouse gas emissions and saved millions of utility costs for a factory
Challenge
The company didn’t have a holistic solution to track, measure, classify and report emissions. They used Excel spreadsheets and a few independent services to store information about the company's emissions and energy consumption.
There was no forecasting process implemented. The company simply used data from previous years to roughly predict the total amounts of emissions.
There was a lack of reporting and analysis systems that would provide the company with a UI-friendly view of all emissions metrics.

Solution
The Vimera specialists implemented Scope 3 Hub to automate supplier emissions tracking by helping the company to efficiently track and take action on full emission chains.
Salesforce was chosen as the primary source of information, and all data from third-party resources was transferred to it. The Vimera team integrated Salesforce with third-party systems, making data easily accessible without duplication of workload.
The Vimera specialists set up Carbon Credit management feature to help the company find and purchase carbon credits from ecopreneurs
We developed Water management to help the company form a clear water footprint and calculate intensities and variances.
The Vimera specialists implemented Carbon Accounting system with predefined datasets to help sustainability managers quickly load specific versions of datasets with the most relevant data.
The Vimera specialists set up an analytics system and made it possible to create customized reports and dashboards with CRM Analytics.
We set up Advanced Forecasting to generate accurate forecasts and track them. The feature also allows the company to adjust the forecasts based on planned emissions savings initiatives and help the company develop a better climate action plan.
