Sustainability with SAP:
Meeting legal requirements
Sustainability obligations need reliable data. We advise on how to meet them with SAP and AI-supported solutions.
The starting point
Sustainability has become mandatory
Laws such as the supply chain law and sustainability reporting rules demand reliable evidence. Which obligations apply to you depends on size, industry and role in the supply chain. Even companies not directly affected receive requirements from business partners.
Supply chain in view
Identify and document risks at suppliers and partners.
Evidence CO₂ data
Capture emissions traceably, from Scope 1 to Scope 3.
Produce reports
Answer mandatory reports and business partner requests quickly.
How SAP supports you
The data is usually already there
Procurement, accounting and supplier master data live in SAP. What matters is connecting and analyzing them cleanly.
Use existing data
Financial, procurement and supplier data from SAP as the basis for CO₂ footprint and reports.
Anchor processes
Build checks, approvals and documentation into existing processes.
Prepare analytics
Prepare data so that reports and evidence are produced without manual work.
AI in everyday work
Bringing sustainability into every important decision
SAP is pursuing the approach of integrating sustainability into decisions with AI instead of reporting it afterwards. The goal is to make ESG reporting as robust as financial reporting.
Sustainable products, traceable supply chain
Consider requirements for packaging, sourcing and traceability in product, supplier and shipping decisions.
Sustainable and safe operations
Include energy, emissions, safety and permit requirements in decisions in production, logistics and asset management.
Disclose ESG data
Link verifiable transaction data with compliance, reporting and financial risks from carbon management.
Our approach
From requirement to implementation
We advise which SAP standard capabilities are enough and where an addition makes sense.
Clarify requirements
Which obligations apply to you and your supply chain?
Review data situation
Which data exists, how good is it, what is missing?
Choose the path
SAP standard, an extension on the BTP or a suitable addition.
Implement and support
We implement and support ongoing operation.

Frequently asked questions
Sustainability with SAP: questions and answers
Answers to what companies ask us most often before they start.
Which companies are affected?
It depends on size, industry and role in the supply chain. Smaller companies are affected indirectly too, because business partners pass requirements on.
What do Scope 1, 2 and 3 mean?
These are the three levels of a CO₂ footprint: own emissions (Scope 1), purchased energy (Scope 2) and the rest of the value chain (Scope 3).
Which data do I need?
Usually procurement, accounting and supplier data from SAP. Which exactly depends on the goal. We clarify this at the start.
Do I need new software for this?
Not necessarily. A lot can often be solved with existing SAP data and standard functions. We check up front where an addition makes sense.
How current are the legal requirements?
The rules change. We help you classify the requirements and show the technical implementation. We do not replace legal advice.
What role does AI play?
It can analyze data, flag anomalies and bring sustainability into decisions, for example in procurement, production and logistics. But it needs clean data. We clarify the foundation first.
