Okapi’s EcoVisor Tool

The Best Corporate Sustainability Reporting Platform

Corporate Sustainability is an organization’s effort to mitigate its operations’ impact on the earth throughout the lifecycle of its product while remaining profitable.

Sustainability Reporting is a collection of quantitative and qualitative data assessing those eco-friendly efforts. It may also include goals for social responsibility and corporate governance, toward an established goal and benchmark.

Sustainability encompasses ESG (environmental, social, governance). Is there a difference between ESG vs sustainability reporting? Yes; ESG reporting is more subjective and qualitative than looking at hard data points, but the two are not mutually exclusive. 

The Sustainability Report concerning our readers focuses on:

  • Reducing and mitigating carbon emissions
  • Eliminating and diverting waste
  • Recapturing resources
  • Enhancing the quality of life for stakeholders, clients, and the public

Whether motivated by a corporate sustainability reporting directive, by proactive leadership, or asking ‘Why is corporate sustainability important,’ we’re excited you want to learn more.

Organizations needing sustainability reporting frameworks recognize how difficult it is to gather pertinent information from disparate sources. Business sustainability officers also often face trouble in identifying the proper metrics to focus on. With ambiguous terms and standards, in a relatively new field, quantifying, comparing, explaining, and disclosing sustainability progress can be challenging.

So how can corporations be more sustainable, and how does one meaningfully demonstrate success in a sustainability program? Corporations become sustainable by, first, assessing their weaknesses and establishing their goals for each facility and vendor relationship they have. Assessment starts with measurement. 

Here's What's Broken About Your Current Sustainability Reporting

We’re continually amazed by companies whose annual sustainability reports are built using rudimentary tools and inconsistent measurements. 

Worse, typically, one over-qualified executive devotes too much time gathering data from apathetic department leads who see reporting as an imposition on their own work. You need to simplify, modernize, and automate. You need the best sustainability reports. Okapi Environmental Services offers a superior sustainability reporting software, EcoVisor.

EcoVisor’s sustainability reporting standards and frameworks automate your sustainability reporting tools into a customized dashboard for your individual needs.

EcoVisor can aggregate data from many separate sources with ease, relieving the burden. 

Additionally, EcoVisor allows you to compare sustainability progress reports across facilities and amounts/types of waste and resource recovery. And it can also predict your future trends and goals, making it the ​​best corporate sustainability reporting tool.

  • The effect on the local community
  • Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions
