There are three areas where the accuracy and audit-readiness of HowGood’s data will support CSRD reporting requirements:

• Quantitative data requirements:
  ‍While comprehensive CSRD platforms offer critical support for aggregating and automating data collection, many cannot provide the quantitative data required to comply with CSRD. As the world’s largest food sustainability database, HowGood houses the value chain impact data required, with a level of granularity and accuracy that is unprecedented in the food industry.
• Mandate for Trust, Transparency, and Quality:
  The CSRD specifies high data quality and auditability requirements. With HowGood’s background in enterprise-level carbon accounting and product footprinting, we ensure data accuracy and quality at scale for the most challenging environmental reporting categories. All calculations are audit-ready and aligned to the GHG Protocol and ISO 14067, and HowGood’s product footprinting methodology is certified by the Carbon Trust.
• Third-party assurance:
  The level of transparency and substantiation that HowGood provides will ensure that reporting companies are assurance-ready. All reports include full methodologies and data sources, and all of HowGood’s metrics are in line with leading sustainability reporting standards >> learn more at https://www.howgood.com/research-methodology
