Sustainability Data Growing Pains and the Power of GumboNet ESG

The need to reduce their carbon footprint is forcing companies to examine the quality, quantity and timeliness of their data to satisfy investors, regulators, lenders and other stakeholders. Yet monitoring ESG measurement consumes human capital, time and financial resources without the guarantee of accuracy or repeatability. GumboNet ESG allows companies to automate reporting with the promise of accurate measurements from the field, simplifying historically inaccurate self-reporting practices, and supporting standardization in accordance with SASB Standards.

“Data Gumbo is poised to address sustainability measurement growing pains with near real-time environmental data from the field,” said Jeff Cohen, CAIA, Director of Capital Markets Integration. “GumboNet ESG stands to enable accurate, automated measurement by industrial sectors as to their carbon emissions, while saving time, human capital and money. This solution supports better reporting into SASB standards in a way that could ultimately scale to all sectors of the economy.”

As a neutral third-party, GumboNet reaches across data sources, silos and counterparty information in a supply chain, capturing and verifying real-world events and services as they unfold with a corroborated, auditable record. This data used by companies in GumboNet smart contracts to automate invoicing and payments and wring out process inefficiencies is the same data needed to measure sustainability such as carbon emissions. In effect, sustainability measurement is paid for by removing waste from the supply chain. GumboNet ESG is available as a configurable smart contract, and taps a company’s own operational Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) field data and that of their supply chain’s to produce an accurate picture of environmental impact.

“Our smart contract network is extremely efficient in its ability to track, report and audit the carbon footprint across supply chains. This is based on field data and facts, not estimates, as it’s also the data that companies are invoicing with and paying bills off. GumboNet ESG empowers companies to tackle previously nonexistent, difficult or subpar measurement strategies around emissions and carbon tracking, providing the trust required for accurate, provable — not estimated — ESG reporting,” said Bruce.

Data Gumbo customers will have access to the GumboNet ESG as part of their GumboNet subscription to automate commercial transactions. GumboNet ESG licenses and applies the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Materiality Map® and full standards in its work.
