How I Support Companies

The data is usually somewhere inside your company: electricity and gas bills, material lists, SAP data, Excel files from logistics, waste data, transport invoices, product weights and supplier information, but it is scattered across departments, stored in different formats and often collected for completely different reasons.

​

This is where many manufacturing companies get stuck, not because there is no data at all, but because no one has sorted it before in a way that can be used for CO₂ calculations, customer requests or sustainability reporting.

​

The first reaction is often to send something quickly, because the customer is waiting, but that is exactly where mistakes happen: company emissions get mixed with product emissions, units are unclear, Scope 1, 2 and 3 are not separated, assumptions are not documented, and no one feels confident when someone asks where the numbers actually come from.

​

The first step is to bring order into this situation: existing data is reviewed, sources are structured, Corporate Carbon Footprint is separated from Product Carbon Footprint, units and plausibility are checked, gaps become visible, and it becomes clear which data can already be used and which data still needs improvement.

​

The goal is to bring order into your existing data, so you can see what is usable, what needs improvement and what can already support customer requests or internal decisions.

Most companies do not need another abstract sustainability concept at the beginning, they need a practical structure that connects energy, materials, production, transport, waste and product data with the questions customers and business partners are already asking.

What we can work on together: 

​

CO2 Data Check

Your emissions data exists somewhere, but it is not yet complete, consistent or easy to use. Together, we sort through electricity and gas data, material lists, supplier information, logistics data, waste data and other relevant sources, check units and plausibility, identify gaps and prepare a structure that can be used for the next steps.

​

Corporate & Product Carbon Footprint

Your company’s carbon footprint or the carbon footprint of selected products is calculated with clear system boundaries, transparent assumptions and a structure that helps you answer customer requests, prepare reporting data or make better internal decisions.

At the same time, your team learns how the calculation works, which data is needed, where assumptions are made and how the process can be continued independently after the first calculation.

A key part of this work is separating Corporate Carbon Footprint from Product Carbon Footprint, because these two topics are often mixed at the beginning, even though they answer different questions.

Resource Efficiency & Hotspot Analysis

CO₂ is rarely only a CO₂ topic in production. It is often hidden in material choices, energy use, cycle times, scrap, transport, packaging or process decisions. The relevant hotspots become visible, and from there we translate them into realistic improvement options.

​

Technical Sustainability Implementation

Knowing what needs to change is one thing, building a process that works in daily operations is another. The work focuses on practical structures that fit your production environment, your data maturity and your team, so sustainability does not remain a report, but becomes part of how decisions are made.

​

How I work

You work directly with me, not through a large consulting team. That means direct contact with the person who understands your data, your production context and your sustainability questions, from the first data check to the next practical steps.

​

The best fit is a manufacturing company that wants to understand its data, build internal clarity and become able to answer customer questions with more confidence.

We start with what is already available, bring structure into the data, identify the gaps and build a process your team can continue to use after the first calculation.
