Analytic Solutions
for Sustainable Capitalism
Helping organizations calculate their real environmental and social impacts, and converting them into financial risks for capital planning
Our Solutions
Whether an organization is considering a sustainability strategy, working to improve their sustainability reporting system, managing an investment portfolio, or governing a community – impact matters.
We enable organizations to accurately assess and define their impacts. These impacts translate to an improved view of their financial risks, which can be actioned. Organizations who understand and allocate resources to reach their target impact, will be more resilient, increase profits, and improve stakeholder wellbeing.
Our unique three step Solutions Approach enables companies to:
- Assess impacts
- Create fair targets
- Quantify financial risk
This approach can be applied to a single substance like GHG, water, or others across an operation, division, region, or facility.
Our approach leverages existing frameworks to accelerate custom solutions for any organization.
The Wellbeing Analytics Dashboard below shows:
- Performance in terms of megawatt hours of electricity produced
- Real impacts in terms of CO2 emissions
- Target impacts based on what it would take to meet sector goals
- Financial risks associated with distance from target based on carbon pricing scenarios for energy producing companies
Regardless of whether carbon is priced for next year, in 5 years, or in 20 years, in today’s volatile business climate organizations can no longer afford to operate without knowing contingent liabilities accruing to their current performance.
The same holds true for water consumption, land use, contaminant release, employment practices, and all the other ways organizations impact the stakeholders around them.
Our Technology
Our technology is comprised of a multi-layered Wellbeing Analytics Framework, combining model components, data, and algorithms, that can be tailored to any organization and made extensible on any data platform – relational, graph, GIS, or grid, cloud-hosted, and/or local.
It is based on decades of research and real-world application, designed to be tailored to your existing analytics to convert near-market environmental and social factors into financial measures of risk. These risks can be combined with all kinds of traditional business financials from project risk assessment to capital budgeting.
