Creating a Scope 3 report with outdate emissions, or worse, setting targets on the same data, fails to give companies the true insights into their scope 3 needed to diagnose issues and drive effective change. Ada solves this. By providing a level of accuracy usually only available through long, expensive human-driven outreach programmes at a fraction of the cost, Ada allows you to dive deeper.

Even when you’ve decided to go the high-quality route and ask suppliers directly for emissions data, often times we see from our analysis that less than 20% of businesses that are asked to provide this data actually do. That means, even with the best of intentions, most companies waste effort trying to extract data from organisations that don’t have any.

Regulators, investors and consumers are all wise to the tricks of the past that companies used to use to produce emissions reporting and target setting. Now that sharper eyes fall over emissions disclosure it’s time for businesses to take seriously their reporting duty.
