Teams managing Scope 3 emissions reduction:
With the GHG Protocol Scope 3 Standard under revision it is likely that companies with supplier data gaps or using spend-based proxies will find their data harder to defend.
Building primary data infrastructure now put you ahead of changes to the standard, not scrambling to meet it.
South Pole can help you engage, map and measure your supply chain then use this essential data to create verifiable reductions in your Scope 3 emissions.
Build a GHG Protocol-aligned Scope 3 inventory.
Deploy interventions that drive measurable reductions.
Monitor progress and create audit-ready reduction evidence.
South Pole combines advisory, project development and MRV to help helps organisations move from estimated Scope 3 inventories to verified reductions.
Our Scope 3 advisory is grounded in hands-on project development expertise.
Our team brings deep experience across cocoa, coffee, dairy and palm oil supply chains.
We are a GHG Protocol Working Group Member and helped pilot draft GHG Protocol Land Sector Guidance.
Scope 3 emissions account for the majority of many organisations' footprints, yet inventories often rely on spend-based proxies and incomplete supplier information.
We help you engage your supply chain effectively to build your inventory on stronger data foundations.
What you get:
With a Scope 3 inventory in place you have the data you need to begin reducing and removing emissions.
We work with you to deliver category-level strategies and supplier-specific interventions that deliver measurable reductions across complex value chains.
What you get:
A Scope 3 programme that produces an annual PDF is not a reduction programme — it is a reporting programme.
We help you create real accountability by putting in place MRV systems that track supplier performance over time, identifying deviations early and generating the evidence that investors, auditors and regulators increasingly expect.
What you get:
The sooner you create the right supplier relationships, data quality and reduction evidence, the sooner you can deliver Scope 3 reductions effectively.
The revised GHG Protocol Scope 3 Standard is targeted for 2027. Preparing early helps you adapt with confidence.
For many orgs, supply chain emissions far exceed operational emissions.
