Carbon accounting and sustainability reporting for mid-market companies.
Higher Impact helps mid-market companies in pharma, manufacturing, and other complex sectors build credible Scope 1–3 inventories, supplier data programs, and investor-ready sustainability reporting.

Signals it is time to bring in Higher Impact
A few situations where teams typically reach out.
Customer Carbon Requests
A major customer asks for emissions data, CDP, EcoVadis, or a supplier sustainability response, and your team is not sure where to start.
Scope 3 Complexity
Your company has spend data, supplier data, or partial activity data, but no defensible methodology for turning it into a credible Scope 3 inventory.
Investor or Assurance Pressure
Your PE owner, board, investor, or auditor expects clearer sustainability data, documentation, controls, and reporting readiness.
No Internal Owner
Leadership wants progress, but the sustainability lead is overextended or the work sits across finance, EHS, procurement, facilities, and operations.
From a credible inventory to a working program
Carbon accounting is often the entry point. Done well, it becomes the foundation for better reporting, supplier engagement, risk management, and decarbonization planning.
Scope 1-3 Carbon Accounting
GHG Protocol-aligned inventories, baselines, annual refreshes, data QA, and documentation.
Scope 2 Market-Based Validation
REC claimability, contractual instrument review, emissions factor hierarchy, market-based methodology, and assurance readiness.
Scope 3 Methodology & Supplier Data
Category prioritization, supplier-informed approaches, hybrid methods, emissions factor strategy, and data quality improvement.
Reporting, Ratings & Disclosure
CDP, EcoVadis, TCFD, ISSB/SASB, CSRD readiness, customer requests, and investor-ready reporting packages.
Net Zero & Reduction Roadmaps
SBTi target setting, net zero transition plans, decarbonization levers, and practical implementation roadmaps.
