The situation
A national food manufacturing and delivery business with nine assets, growing disclosure expectations from customers and regulators, and no dedicated carbon team.
The problem, in their terms
Emissions measurement meant a consultant engagement each time: backward-looking, expensive, and stale on delivery.
Activity data was scattered across fuel receipts, electricity bills, waste service invoices, packaging records, freight and travel systems, all in different formats.
Scope 3 was the hardest part: supplier spend and freight data needing conversion into a defensible inventory.
The deployment
01
An enterprise-grade start. The master services agreement was negotiated through six drafts. A client that takes contracts seriously, and a procurement bar the platform passed.
02
Connected to the actual records. CarbonAgent ingested and categorised invoices, utility bills and supplier spend files, flagging exceptions for human review rather than humans processing everything.
03
Built across all nine assets. The emissions architecture was validated against GHG Protocol and NGER methodology, site by site.
04
Scenario analysis in production. The client ran the 8-step AASB S2 scenario workflow as an early production test, feeding disclosure readiness.
What runs now
Continuous Scope 1, 2 and 3 measurement across nine assets from source documents. The team reviews flagged exceptions instead of building spreadsheets. Disclosure-ready outputs on demand.
