Corporate Carbon Footprint

As KITA Consulting we measure your greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1-2-3, build ISO 14064-1 aligned inventory and reporting, and link a reduction roadmap to your operations.

What is a corporate carbon footprint?

A corporate carbon footprint is the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from an organization’s activities, expressed as CO₂e. It covers operations, energy, transport, supply chain and waste, and is the shared foundation for measurement, reporting and reduction.

What's included

  • Scope 1: identifying direct emission sources
  • Scope 2: emissions from purchased energy
  • Scope 3: value-chain indirect emission screening
  • ISO 14064-1 aligned inventory and reporting
  • Emission factors, data quality and verification readiness
  • Reduction targets and implementation roadmap

How we proceed

  • Define organizational boundaries and scopes
  • Collect energy, fuel, transport, waste and related data
  • Calculate CO₂e with appropriate emission factors
  • Inventory reporting and verification support
  • Reduction strategies and continuous improvement

How we support you

We build field-based data discipline and turn the inventory into the backbone of a manageable emissions management system—not just a report.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between corporate and product carbon footprints?

A corporate footprint totals organisational activity emissions (Scopes 1-2-3). A product footprint focuses on life-cycle emissions of a specific product. Most organisations start with a corporate inventory.

Is ISO 14064-1 mandatory?

It may not be legally mandatory in every sector, but customer, export, TSRS/ESG and verification demands have made it the de facto framework.

Do we need to calculate Scope 3 immediately?

Best practice is to lock Scope 1-2 first, then prioritise Scope 3 via screening. Deepening all categories at once is rarely efficient.

How long does the process take?

Depending on data maturity, a first inventory typically takes from a few weeks to a few months. Repeat years get shorter.

What you gain

  • Clarity for legal and customer reporting expectations
  • Comparable inventory across Scopes 1-2-3
  • Data-driven reduction priorities
  • Documentation ready for verification and external audits
