Measuring Sustainability Performance

Leading companies in the sustainability arena are adopting a life cycle approach to measure their environmental and social sustainability performance. Based on the ISO 14040/44 standards, LCA consists of four steps: goal and scope definition, inventory analysis, impact assessment and interpretation.

Establish monitoring and reporting process

Develop your monitoring program, performance dashboards and reporting needs and templates.  Monitoring systems establish baselines and help you to assess ongoing performance. The appropriate data can be simply linked to dashboards and reporting templates to communicate performance and enhance reputation and engagement with internal and external stakeholders.

Several International standards and labelling schemes use LCA as their framework. 

• Product Environmental Footprint
• Carbon Footprint 
• Social Footprint
• Water Footprint
• Corporate Footprint
