Business drivers for purchasing carbon management systems
According to the Verdantix Market Survey published in March
2011, the top drivers are:
• Cost reduction 87%
• Track financial data on energy spend 53%
• Consolidate consumption data 47%
• Acheive energy targets 27%

18. The Challenge:
Strategically
• High levels of risk
• Lack of transparency – assurance – compliance
• Lack of confidence in reports
• Poor audit – ability of the data
• Disconnected and inconsistent paper trail
• “Known Unknowns”
• Disconnected reporting
• Reporting generated by geographic structure
• LSE mandatory reporting requires matching with financial reporting
structure
• For maximum use, reports need to match the organisation management
reporting structure

19. The Challenge:
Operationally
•Disparate and Illusive Data Sources
•Disorganised Paper Trail
•Complex Spreadsheets
–Time Consuming
–Multi-site Challenges
–Risk/Error Reduction
–Consistency & Compliance
–Rapidly Evolving Methods/Emission Factors
–Verification, Transparency, Audit Difficulties
–Cross Reporting Standards

Increased Forensic Scrutiny of Audit Trails
