Environmental Spend Analysis – Map the Environmental Impact of Your Purchases
Where do your purchases have the greatest climate and environmental impact? An environmental spend analysis gives you an overview of the estimated environmental impact of your purchases and helps you identify where to focus your efforts.
With our extensive experience in life cycle assessment (LCA), we help you refine the results using more specific environmental data, enabling better decision-making and more sustainable purchasing.
From Initial Assessment to Ongoing Climate Action
Through an organization-level carbon footprint assessment, Ahnviks gained a clearer understanding of its climate impact and a solid basis for reporting, tracking progress and prioritizing actions.
From High-Level Environmental Data to Better Decisions
An environmental spend analysis provides a valuable overview of the estimated environmental impact of your purchases. However, making informed decisions and tracking improvements often requires more detailed insights.
With our extensive experience in life cycle assessment (LCA) and environmental data, we help you take the analysis further where it matters most. By supplementing general calculations with more specific environmental data, we can improve accuracy and provide a more reliable foundation for your decision-making.
We help you not only understand where the environmental impacts occur, but also identify the next steps towards improvement.
What Are the Benefits of an Environmental Spend Analysis?
We help you build a practical approach to carbon accounting that works today and evolves with your needs. Together, we map your emissions, bring structure to your data and calculations, and give you the knowledge to turn the results into action and track progress over time.
A Clear Picture of Your Current Environmental Impact
Get an overview of which purchasing categories account for the greatest estimated climate and environmental impact, and identify areas that require further investigation.
Insights for Informed Decision-Making
Get support in interpreting the results, understanding uncertainties and identifying where more specific environmental data can make the greatest difference.
A Path Forward
Get guidance on which actions are worth exploring, how to use the results in your procurement processes, and what the next steps could be.
How an Environmental Spend Analysis Works
Understand Your Needs and Goals
We start by understanding your purchasing activities, challenges and goals. Together, we identify the key questions the analysis should help you answer.
Map and Analyse
We link your purchasing data to environmental data to estimate environmental impacts and identify the purchasing categories that are most important to investigate further.
Calculate and understand
Based on the results, we identify where more specific environmental data and in-depth analyses can improve accuracy. We also explore how these insights can be applied and developed over time.
Put the Results into Practice
We help you interpret the results, prioritise next steps and explore how the analysis can support decision-making, progress tracking and more sustainable purchasing.
