About Carbmee & Decarbonization

Frequently asked questions and their answers about EIS carbon management solution of carbmee.

Our product can be used by customers interested in measuring and reporting their carbon emissions. However, it goes beyond that. It was designed for reduction – helping customers to make data-driven decisions based on factual information about their value chain emissions and achieve net-zero targets in a cost-efficient way.

Most of our competitors’ platforms use spend-based calculation alone, which isn’t precise enough to include primary, operations data or provide results that can help companies identify actionable hotspots. Our approach is to use both spend-based and activity-based calculations for the most thorough and precise results possible. 

We provide spend-based calculation to set a baseline for Scope 1 and 2 as well as to identify hotspots if needed. At the same time, we guide our users towards collecting and growing their emissions data within the organization and increasing activity-based data coverage. 

We provide activity-based calculation to tackle emissions that can be the most difficult to measure throughout the value chain, i.e. Scope 3. While many competitors avoid using activity-based calculations due to their complexity, carbmee has streamlined the process, to deliver on results that are 30% more accurate and actionable insights for carbon reduction strategies. 

What makes carbmee different from its competitors?

We have developed our own categorization for how we break down all of your company’s emissions, which are:

      Company Carbon Footprint...

calculates CO2e emissions across your entire company, i.e. all suppliers, internal processes and products;

covers all phases of the company, i.e. Scope 1, 2, and 3;

fulfills regulatory and sustainability reporting requirements;

enables identification of strategic reduction opportunities.

Product Carbon Footprint...


enables carbon reduction along the product development process;

commonly required to win tenders, report on progress, and comply with regulations.

Supplier Carbon Footprint...


calculates climate impact across all suppliers;

covers all phases of the supply chain, i.e. Scope;

identifies cross-supplier/category reduction opportunities;

enables collaboration with suppliers for joint carbon reduction.

What kind of carbon footprints do you calculate?

Yes, our solution is system-agnostic and can integrate with any ERP system.

Can we integrate our ERP system data directly into carbmee’s EIS™ platform?

Organizations that excel at ESG data management don’t just report more—they act faster, reduce costs, and outperform peers. McKinsey reports that companies with strong ESG credentials cut costs by 5–10%, largely through operational efficiency, better resource use, and waste reduction. The key enabler? Deep, accurate data.


Meanwhile, a World Economic Council report shows that over 70% of companies cite data fragmentation as a major barrier to ESG progress. It’s not that the data isn’t there—it’s that businesses can’t consolidate or contextualize it effectively. This is where Custom Properties delivers unmatched strategic value.

By allowing teams to map internal KPIs and external requirements directly into carbmee’s platform, companies gain a unified, coherent data model that grows with them. This not only saves hours—sometimes days—of manual work per reporting cycle but also unlocks cross-functional clarity between sustainability, procurement, finance, and operations.

Why Customization Matters: The Strategic Value of Data

The sustainability reporting landscape is shifting rapidly. The EU’s CSRD and ESRS regulations alone introduce dozens of new mandatory disclosure points. Add to that voluntary frameworks like TCFD, ISSB, or sector-specific guidelines, and suddenly a fixed reporting model simply can’t keep up.

With Custom Properties, carbmee equips your team to respond in real time. Need to add a new field to align with an emerging regulation? Done. Want to track a unique decarbonization metric for internal dashboards? Add it in seconds. The system adapts as your needs evolve.

 Real-Time Flexibility Meets Future-Proof Reporting

Here’s what’s possible when you build your data model around your business:

Faster, smoother ESG reporting: Save significant time by auto-populating carbon models with exactly the data you need—no cleaning, no duplication, no guesswork.

Better collaboration: With shared, customized data fields, teams across departments speak the same language—accelerating workflows and reducing friction.

Clearer insights: By capturing the nuances of your operations, your sustainability reports become more than compliance checklists—they become strategic tools for decision-making.

Reduced risk: Flexible data fields allow you to respond quickly to regulatory changes, ensuring you stay ahead of ESG disclosure requirements.

According to Gartner, by 2026, 70% of organizations will use ESG reporting software as part of their digital strategy. But only those with customizable, scalable platforms will be positioned to derive real strategic value.

 A Smarter Data Model = A Smarter Organization

At carbmee, we believe flexibility should empower—not overwhelm. That’s why Custom Properties are intuitive by design. Add new fields from a simple interface, assign them to any object in the system (like sites, suppliers, products, or materials), and instantly make them available for calculations, dashboards, or exports.

Whether you're a sustainability lead embedding climate metrics across your business or an IT manager integrating with internal systems, Custom Properties offer a smarter, more scalable way to manage ESG data.

Custom Properties are available today—at no additional cost—for all users of the carbmee Environmental Intelligence System (EIS). No hidden fees. No limits. Just the freedom to make your carbon model reflect the full complexity of your business.

In the evolving landscape of global business, managing the carbon footprint across the supply chain has become a critical challenge. Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all indirect emissions occurring in a company’s value chain, often constitute the bulk of a company’s total carbon footprint. Tackling these emissions requires comprehensive strategies, robust data management, and innovative solutions. 

This blog post provides comprehensive guidance on how to manage emissions in the supply chain efficiently and drive effective decarbonization initiatives and enable companies to uncover business levers. 

Studies indicate that for many industries, up to 80% of their total emissions originate from the supply chain. This underscores the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions to make a meaningful impact on overall carbon reduction efforts. Focusing solely on direct emissions (Scope 1 and 2) will not suffice if the larger portion of emissions remains unchecked.

Achieving sustainability targets and transitioning to a low-carbon economy hinges on effectively managing Scope 3 emissions. Companies are increasingly setting ambitious reduction targets, and delivering on these promises is crucial for long-term environmental and economic sustainability.

Regulatory landscapes are evolving, with enhanced Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) regulations requiring accurate and comprehensive reporting of Scope 3 emissions. Compliance with these regulations not only helps avoid penalties but also positions companies favorably with investors and consumers who are increasingly valuing transparency and sustainability.

With the advent of carbon pricing, managing Scope 3 emissions becomes essential for maintaining profitability. Companies that proactively reduce their carbon footprint can mitigate the financial impact of carbon taxes and leverage sustainability as a competitive advantage.

The Importance of Scope 3 Emission Reduction

Challenges of Managing Scope 3 Emissions in Complex Supply Chains

Managing Scope 3 emissions is inherently challenging due to the complexity of modern supply chains. Companies often deal with multiple tiers of suppliers across different countries, each with varying environmental regulations and technological capabilities. Gathering accurate and comprehensive data requires cross-departmental collaboration within the company and across the supply chain.

Spend-based carbon accounting estimates emissions by multiplying the financial value of goods or services by emission factors. It provides a quick overview but lacks accuracy and granularity.

Activity-based accounting focuses on specific activities and processes, using detailed data on physical flows such as energy use, material consumption, and transport distances. It provides more accurate and granular data that enables companies to gain a comprehensive understanding of their Scope 3 emissions and identify hotspots.

The most actionable and accurate method, supplier-specific data, gathers precise information from the supplier's operations and production processes. This data is the most actionable carbon data that empowers companies to drive high ROI reduction strategies, collaborate with existing suppliers or source new low-emission suppliers, and innovate new production processes or materials.

Integrating carbon data into existing corporate data systems is crucial for informed decision-making. Within procurement and supply chain management (SCM), the primary challenge lies in gathering precise and granular data across the entire value chain. This involves connecting data from various Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and ensuring it is specific enough to influence meaningful decisions.

Transforming to a Sustainable Supply Chain: Managing Carbon and Achieving Scope 3 Emissions Reduction

With global climate goals pressing companies to adopt sustainable practices, Scope 3 emissions have become a critical focus area for businesses aiming to reduce their carbon footprint. These emissions, which stem from indirect activities in a company’s value chain, can represent up to 80-90% of total corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Addressing Scope 3 emissions is essential for reaching net-zero targets, enhancing brand value, and achieving regulatory compliance, especially in regions like the EU. Here, we explore what Scope 3 emissions entail, the challenges and solutions for managing them, and the strategies available to companies aiming to reduce their supply chain emissions. Additionally, Carbmee’s advanced platform is showcased as a powerful tool in the journey towards more sustainable supply chains.

Scope 3 emissions are indirect GHG emissions that arise from activities both upstream and downstream of a company’s core operations. These emissions are categorized into 15 specific areas under the GHG Protocol’s Corporate Value Chain Standard, covering everything from purchased goods and services to transportation, waste, and even the end-of-life treatment of sold products. Unlike Scope 1 (direct emissions) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased electricity), Scope 3 requires a comprehensive view across the entire supply chain. This complexity often makes it challenging to measure and track Scope 3 emissions accurately, but it is essential, as these emissions account for the largest share of many companies' carbon footprints.

Learn more in our dedicated article on What are Scope 3 Emissions?

One of the biggest hurdles in Scope 3 management is data quality. Many companies rely on their suppliers to report emissions, which can lead to inconsistencies due to varying reporting standards and data collection methods. Additionally, double counting is a frequent issue, as emissions recorded by one company in its Scope 3 inventory may overlap with another company’s Scope 1 emissions. These factors make it difficult for companies to produce a reliable and comprehensive Scope 3 emissions report.

Carbmee’s carbon accounting solutions address these challenges by automating data collection, enhancing data consistency, and using advanced algorithms to account for emissions accurately. Our platform also integrates with industry standards like the GHG Protocol, ensuring that businesses can comply with international reporting requirements seamlessly.

Explore solutions to these measurement challenges in our article on Challenges and Solutions for Accurate Scope 3 Emissions Measurement.

Challenges of Measuring Scope 3 Emissions

Once emissions are measured, the next step is to identify reduction opportunities across the supply chain. Strategies for supply chain emissions reduction include choosing sustainable suppliers, optimizing logistics for lower emissions, transitioning to renewable energy, and adopting green product design practices. Working closely with suppliers and incentivizing them to adopt greener practices is essential in achieving Scope 3 reduction goals.

Carbmee’s platform enables companies to assess supplier performance and engage with their partners on sustainability initiatives. By providing visibility into supplier emissions and offering tools for supplier engagement, we empower businesses to make informed sourcing decisions and implement emissions reduction strategies effectively.

Precision Enables Better Business Decisions

China’s commitment is part of a broader pattern where climate regulation is embedding emissions into the rules of global trade and finance. The EU’s CBAM, CSRD, and other emerging systems reflect the same direction of travel. For multinational enterprises, this means carbon is increasingly tied to cost structures, compliance requirements, and competitive positioning.

The leaders will be those who treat carbon management with the same rigor as financial accounting—embedding it into procurement, investment, and operational strategies.

A Global Shift with Direct Business Impact

China’s new policy confirms what global trends already make clear: carbon is now both a liability and an opportunity. Enterprises that act now will not only protect margins but also unlock new sources of value.

For a practical overview of global regulations and how to turn compliance into advantage, we recommend downloading our Comprehensive Guide to Global Climate Regulations. It offers a framework for managing carbon with financial precision and positioning your enterprise for long-term competitiveness.

China’s announcement of its first absolute emissions reduction target marks a decisive shift in global climate policy. For the first time, emissions will be capped outright, not just measured against economic growth.

At the same time, China has expanded its national Emissions Trading System (ETS) to cover cement, steel, and aluminum—industries central to global manufacturing and infrastructure .
