Executive Summary
Over the past decade, the sustainability management landscape has transformed from a predominant focus on complying with environmental regulations and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to a broader concentration on materiality assessments, environmental, social and governance factors, and supply chain sustainability. This change is due to a range of factors including mounting pressure from consumers and non-governmental organizations, increasing regulations and government action, and new priorities among institutional investors. This report helps corporate decision-makers responsible for tracking emissions and natural resource use, quantifying sustainability impacts, selecting and managing suppliers, and mapping sustainability strategies better understand the current market landscape of software for managing sustainability programmes and the associated reporting requirements.
