About The Service
Your biggest customers are about to ask for your emissions data. Find out whether yours will hold up, before they do.
Large companies are increasingly required to report their full value chain emissions under climate-disclosure rules and customer programs worldwide, from the EU's CSRD to CDP Supply Chain, EcoVadis, and California's SB 253. They cannot do that without data from their suppliers. If one of those companies is your customer, an emissions questionnaire is coming, likely in the next 12 to 18 months.
Most suppliers find the problems in their data after the request lands. This audit finds them first. And if your data is already solid, you walk away with senior-level proof of it.
This is a diagnostic, not a rebuild. I review whatever emissions and activity data you have today, utility bills and a spreadsheet or almost nothing, and tell you the truth about it before your customer's auditor does.
WHAT YOU GET
The KS Data Quality Memo, a senior review of the data you have today. It includes:
- A full inventory of your data: what exists, what's missing, what's usable
- Quality findings ranked by severity: unit errors, emission factor problems, scope misclassifications
- A gap analysis against what customers actually ask for: CDP, EcoVadis, direct questionnaires, GHG Protocol
- A fix-first action plan sequenced by impact, so Monday morning is obvious
HOW IT WORKS
1. Message me first for a quick fit check (about 15 minutes, free). We confirm the audit is right for you before anything moves forward.
2. Share what you have. NDA signed first. Messy files welcome. "We barely track anything" is a fine starting point.
3. Get your memo, delivered within 10 business days of receiving your data.
WHO'S BEHIND IT
Kerri Schoenberg has run KS Consulting since 2016: GHG accounting, Scope 1, 2, and 3 inventories, and ESG reporting across CDP, TCFD, ISSB, and CSRD. She started as a field wildlife biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Park Service, so your numbers get reviewed by someone trained in actual science. Certificates in GHG Accounting, SBTi, TCFD, and IFRS S1/S2.
One fixed price, one clear deliverable. This is a diagnostic that tells you the truth about your data before your customer's auditor does.
Other Information
Customer Challenge
Your biggest customers are starting to ask for emissions data. New climate-disclosure rules and buyer programs worldwide (the EU's CSRD, CDP Supply Chain, EcoVadis, and California's SB 253 among them) now require large companies to report their full value chain emissions, and they cannot do it without data from their suppliers. If one of them is your customer, a questionnaire is likely coming in the next 12 to 18 months. Most suppliers only discover the gaps and errors in their data after the request lands, when there is no time left to fix them. This audit finds them first.
Service Solution
A fixed-price diagnostic of the emissions and activity data you already have. I review whatever you've got, from utility bills and a spreadsheet to almost nothing, and deliver the KS Data Quality Memo: a senior review that tells you exactly where your data stands before a customer's auditor sees it. If your data is solid, you walk away with documented proof of it. If it isn't, you get a clear, prioritized build list. This is a diagnostic, not a rebuild, and it comes at one flat price with one clear deliverable.
Service Activities
What the memo includes: a full inventory of your data (what exists, what's missing, what's usable); quality findings ranked by severity (unit errors, emission factor problems, scope misclassifications); a gap analysis against what customers actually ask for (CDP, EcoVadis, direct questionnaires, GHG Protocol); and a fix-first action plan sequenced by impact. How it works: first, a free 15-minute fit check by message to confirm the audit is right for you, then you share what you have with an NDA signed first (messy files welcome), then your memo is delivered within 10 business days of receiving your data.
Key Results
You know exactly where your emissions data stands before a customer's request lands, not after. You get a clear, prioritized list of what to fix first, so nothing is left to guesswork. And if your data is already solid, you walk away with senior, documented proof you can hand straight to a customer's procurement or sustainability team.
Customer Value
You walk into a customer emissions questionnaire prepared instead of scrambling. You protect the customer relationship, avoid a rushed and expensive fix under deadline, and get a senior review from someone with nearly a decade of GHG and ESG experience, at a fraction of what a large consulting firm charges for the same diagnostic.
