 Scope 5′s web-hosted software helps a wide range of private and public-sector organizations extract value from their environmental sustainability and energy data. We are inspired by a vision of transparent, effective sustainability and energy management as a common mode of operation for all organizations.

Scope 5 is the accessible upgrade option from spreadsheets. Organizations typically start their early sustainability reporting efforts using spreadsheet-based tools. Sooner or later these become  inadequate. Alternative solutions are too complex and costly for most organizations. Solving this dilemma is our sweet spot.

Scope 5 is developing – and collaborating with – NBIS and a network of sustainability consulting firms that are adding Scope 5 to their solution tool boxes. Prospective partners can contact us directly (partners@scope5.com).

Learn more about Scope 5 by emailing us (sales@scope5.com) or the NBIS team.
