CSRD enforcement begins in 2028. Companies with a calendar-year will need to report Scope 1, Scope 2, and significant Scope 3 emissions. The figures must be audit-ready, so estimates will not be accepted. The penalties are financial and non-compliance can mean fines of €10 million or 5% of global annual turnover, and companies can be excluded from public procurement and pressure through the supply chain.
Most companies are willing to report, but the problem is the data. Emissions figures are held across separate ERPs, supplier portals, spreadsheets, and IoT sensors. Scope 3 , is typically 70–80% of a company's total footprint , is the least measured of the three. Most companies calculate it from generic licensed factors rather than their own supplier data. Manual, spreadsheet-based consolidation might be enough for a marketing deck, but an auditor will reject it.
In this session, we'll show what an audit-ready carbon data platform looks like , and how much of it you can build before 2028.
You'll see:
- Why carbon reporting is a data architecture problem instead of a sustainability problem.
- How you can unify data from ERPs, MES, supplier portals, and IoT sensors , with governed, secure supplier data sharing and built-in lineage for audit trails.
- Demo of the N-iX Carbon Tracking Accelerator: ask-anything answers, forward-looking target forecasts, and automatic root-cause alerts, all built on a single audit-ready data foundation.
- A realistic path to 2028 readiness looks like, starting with an emissions data assessment.
Who Should Attend
- Chief Sustainability Officers & ESG Leads , need audit-proof Scope 1–3 reporting.
- CIOs & CDOs , need to unify fragmented ESG data without adding another software silo.
- CFOs & Risk Officers , need to understand and price the exposure.
- Heads of Procurement & Supply Chain , need reliable Scope 3 data from tier-1 and tier-2 suppliers.
Reserve your seat and get a head start on 2028.
