Business value

Achieving sustainability scorecards and goals enhances a company's reputation, operational efficiency, and compliance. It leads to cost savings and risk mitigation. Sustainability efforts attract investors, customers, and talent while fostering innovation and ensuring long-term viability. When a company aligns its sustainability efforts with regulatory incentives and market demand, it creates a competitive advantage. Responsible resource management and positive stakeholder engagement drive growth.

Feature details

This feature integrates with the existing Sustainability Setup and uses role-based access through the Sustainability Manager field in the User Setup page. Here you can set up specific scorecards with owner information to track sustainability and add goals for each scorecard. Each goal has start and end dates, baselines, and current and target values for all tracked emissions. With this information, you can easily track your progress toward achieving your sustainability plans.

To set it up, you must first configure the Sustainability Setup page with emission unit measures. Then, you enable Sustainability Manager for designated users and create scorecards with assigned owners. Finally, you define goals with current/baseline periods, target values, and optional scope (companywide, country/region, or facility-specific). Goals support progress tracking through current versus target comparisons, with one main goal, which is shown on the Sustainability Manager Role Center.
