ESG compliance. Now it runs itself.
Sustaineve structures your environmental, social, and governance data into permanent, audit-ready records — so your compliance doesn't depend on who you call.
Built for Indian manufacturing · BRSR, CCTS, GHG Protocol, GRI, ISO 14064 and 8 more frameworks
Calculation engine aligned with
The situation most manufacturers are in
The data exists. The system to hold it doesn't.
A mid-size manufacturer with active export relationships handles 12–24 ESG data requests per year. Each one is answered manually, each one takes days, each one produces numbers nobody internally trusts.
Data collection
The data is everywhere except one place
Energy bills. Fuel logs. Water records. Waste manifests. HR files. ESG data lives across every department — never in one system, never structured for compliance. Every reporting cycle starts from the same zero.
Calculation accuracy
The calculation is done by whoever has time
IPCC emission factors, GWP weights, CEA grid values — applied manually, in spreadsheets, by people who weren't hired for this. The numbers come out different every time. Nobody stands behind them.
Traceability & reporting
The report doesn't survive scrutiny
When a buyer audits your BRSR submission or an ISO verifier traces your Scope 2 figures, the chain breaks. No source. No factor. No methodology. The number exists, but it cannot be defended.
We eliminated manual ESG compliance for manufacturers.
The Platform
One system. Every ESG obligation, structured.
Built module by module. Grows with your reporting requirements — not against them.
Carbon emissions, energy, water, waste — every environmental metric your compliance demands.
Employee health & safety, DEI, labour practices, community engagement, supply chain responsibility.
Corporate governance, risk management, policies, and reporting transparency.
Environment module: live. Social & Governance: arriving Q3 2026.
How it works
Compliance that runs on your data, not on coordination.
Three steps. One system. Every framework you face.
Capture
Structure at source
Guided input for energy, fuel, water, waste, and emissions data. Every entry validated, timestamped, and mapped to GHG Protocol source categories — at the moment it enters the system.
- Facility-level inputs
- Multi-source upload
- Data validation at entry
Calculate
IPCC-grade methodology
IPCC 2006 & 2019 emission factors applied automatically. India CEA grid values embedded. All 7 Kyoto gases tracked. Every tCO₂e calculated with a full audit trail — source to result.
- IPCC 2006 & 2019 emission factors
- GWP-weighted tCO₂e output
- Full calculation audit trail
Report
Any framework, same data
Select your framework. BRSR, GHG Protocol, CCTS intensity, GRI 305, SBTi. The same verified dataset produces every output — collected once, reportable infinitely.
- BRSR Principal disclosure
- GHG Protocol aligned
- Export-ready format
We made compliance survive on its own.
Platform Preview
The platform your compliance team will actually use.
Built for plant managers, sustainability heads, and CFOs — structured around how manufacturing data actually flows, not how generic ESG tools expect it to.
Structured data collection — zero spreadsheets.
Every Scope 1 and Scope 2 source in a single structured interface. Stationary combustion, mobile combustion, fugitive emissions, purchased electricity — guided entry with validation at input.
ESG Overview
Every obligation, in one view.
Environment, Social, and Governance data in a unified dashboard. Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions, water use, waste generation — with quarterly trending and per-source breakdown.
Full ESG module coverage
Environment live. Social & Governance arriving Q3 2026 — same platform, no migration.
IPCC 2006 & 2019 emission factors
Every tCO₂e traceable to IPCC source category and GWP value.
Full audit trail per calculation
Data source → emission factor → methodology. Export in one click.
11 frameworks supported
BRSR, CCTS, GHG Protocol, GRI, SBTi — same dataset, every output.
Standards & Methodology
Built on the standards that auditors actually check.
Sustaineve applies IPCC 2006 & 2019 Refinement emission factors, GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting Standard, and India CEA grid factors. The same methodology a third-party verifier will trace when they audit your inventory.

Why Sustaineve
The old approach was never built to scale.
Excel files and annual consultant visits made sense when reporting happened once a year. ESG data is now requested 12–24 times a year, across buyers, regulators, and lenders. The old model breaks at frequency.

The alternative isn't cheaper. It's more expensive, more fragile, and harder to defend when the numbers are questioned.
