ERM, the world’s largest specialist sustainability consultancy, has enhanced its collaboration with Salesforce by becoming a global tier one Net Zero Cloud Advisory & Implementation Partner.

Net Zero Cloud seamlessly connects sustainability data from the entire value chain to an organization. Deeply unified with the Salesforce platform and ecosystem, it increases productivity, improves accuracy, and decreases costs by delivering key insights on demand, filling data gaps, and automating reporting and other critical tasks. It makes businesses more resilient and enables them to find new ways of reducing climate impact while boosting the bottom line.

ERM harnesses the capabilities of Net Zero Cloud to support clients with strategic planning, benchmarking, materiality assessment and value chain mapping through to data compilation, target setting and disclosure. Its experts also bring the strategic and technical capabilities required to help companies execute their sustainability strategies to deliver on business transformation goals, from reimagining products and services to developing large capital projects.

Gerard Spans, global head of Digital Services at ERM said: “Corporate decarbonization efforts have shifted from setting long-term goals to finding ways to accelerate action to not only meet those ambitious targets, but to unlock measurable business value. 

“Working together, ERM and Salesforce will enable companies to integrate sustainability into their operations, helping them to enhance business resilience and drive competitive advantage.”

ERM has already implemented Salesforce Net Zero Cloud for more than a dozen clients, including utilities, energy, technology and manufacturing sector companies globally. 

“At Salesforce, we believe that sustainability and digital transformation go hand in hand. Net Zero Cloud enables companies to connect, automate, and act on their sustainability data -- turning insights into meaningful action. We look forward  to scaling our partnership with ERM to help companies not only meet their climate commitments but also improve financial ROI, resilience, long-term value and drive measurable impact," said Prashanthi Sudhakar, Head of Product, Net Zero Cloud at Salesforce.
