Eviden PCF Platform
State-of-the-art software solution specifically designed for the chemical industry. Developed in cooperation with BASF, it automates and streamlines the calculation of Product Carbon Footprints (PCF) at scale. It takes into account the specific characteristics of the chemical industry and adheres to international guidelines such as the GHG Protocol, ISO standards, and Together for Sustainability (TfS). The PCF Platform creates deep data-driven insights and empowers companies to reach their sustainability targets and drive real-world changes.
Main Advantages of the PCF Platform
With its powerful technology, the PCF Platform enables fast and scalable calculations across extensive product portfolios. At the same time, it takes industry specifics like internal supply chain and multi-output allocation into account to provide reliable results.
The PCF Platform provides detailed transparency of emissions at each production step, highlighting the major contributions and facilitating the exploration of CO2 reduction scenarios.
The platform complies with international and industry-specific guidelines such as the GHG Protocol, ISO standards, and Together for Sustainability (TfS). This compliance ensures that PCF calculations are universally accepted and promotes industry collaboration.
The platform enables product/ process comparisons and quick identification of differences between two PCF datasets. It also provides the ability to change parameters related to bills of materials, raw materials, and/or utilities, for analysis purposes.
The PCF Platform enables the easy creation of PCF reports for your customers. These reports can be tailored to contain the information you want to share, and are presented in a company-specific layout.
The data can be easily exported from the PCF Platform for further use in other systems (e.g., analytics) or shared with customers and suppliers via industry-specific exchange platforms, such as SiGREEN.
Your path to automated PCF calculations
Demo and Discovery Workshop
In the initial meeting, you will meet our PCF Platform Core Team. During this session, we will present the capabilities and benefits of the PCF Platform through a comprehensive demo. Following this, we will conduct a Discovery Workshop to gain an in-depth understanding of your organization’s specific situation, including its structure, data landscape, and existing competencies. This phase is offered to you completely free of charge.
Pilot
To ensure a seamless implementation, we recommend starting with a pilot project focusing on a reduced scope, such as selected material groups or specific sites. This approach allows us to assess data availability, structure, and quality in a controlled environment. The pilot phase typically spans up to five months and is designed to deliver actionable insights. In many cases, the outcomes of the pilot can be directly leveraged for the enterprise-wide solution.
Enterprise Solution
Building on the insights and results from the pilot phase, we proceed with the rollout of the enterprise version of the PCF Platform. The scope and duration of this rollout are customized to align with your organization’s needs and priorities. Leveraging our extensive experience in global rollout projects, we employ agile project management methodologies and AI supported emission factor mapping to ensure an efficient and scalable implementation.
