Understanding the Emitwise Supplier Scorecard

The Emitwise Supplier Scorecard provides an overview of your company's decarbonization efforts by assigning a score based on the data you submit. This score helps both you and your customer track your progress toward sustainability goals.

Why Supplier Scorecards Matter:

• For suppliers: Scorecards offer clear direction on how to improve your sustainability practices and achieve higher recognition levels.
• For customers: Scorecards allow for an easy comparison of suppliers’ decarbonization efforts, ensuring they work with partners who are committed to reducing their carbon footprint.

How It Works:

1. Initial Score: New suppliers start at the ‘Insufficient’ level.
2. Data Submission: Provide Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions data along with revenue information. You can also add Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs). Then, add targets and evidence of engaging your suppliers.
3. Score Calculation: Based on the data, your company will be ranked as Insufficient, Starter, Bronze, Silver, or Gold, with recommendations provided at each stage.
4. Annual Data Request: Each year, your score resets, but targets and prior supplier engagement efforts carry over.
5. Continuous Improvement: You can improve your score by refining your data and passing data quality checks.
