Assure the reliability and trustworthiness of your sustainability software.
Sustainability software refers to systems and tools that help organisations manage their sustainability data and improve environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. Businesses often utilise ready-to-use software for collecting and analysing sustainability data across their value chain. Data measured include product carbon footprint and recyclability.
Evaluation is a conformity assessment method specifically adapted by TÜV SÜD for sustainability software to enhance its reliability and trustworthiness. It complements product certification and claim validation/verification. The evaluation focuses on functional suitability, process implementation, and manual recalculation of sustainability aspects. To ensure the accuracy of the data generated by the software, its methodology and documentation must be thoroughly evaluated by a trusted third party like TÜV SÜD.
The outcome of the evaluation is a report that can be used for advertising according to the Do’s-and-Don’t’s list, which is available upon request.
