Reporting and Metrics
Tracking performance and impact
We report on our sustainability performance with a focus on transparency, consistency, and relevance. Our approach is based on measuring areas that are material to our business.
What we measure
We track performance across the environmental, social and governance areas where our activities have the most significant impact. As an example, this includes greenhouse gas emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3, covering our own operations as well as relevant parts of our value chain. We also monitor energy use and efficiency across offices and IT-related activities.
In addition, we report on lifecycle and circularity metrics, including the volume of hardware that is refurbished, recirculated, or otherwise kept in use. These metrics reflect the role lifecycle management can play in reducing the overall impact of IT, depending on how equipment is used and managed over time. Employee-related indicators are also included, such as engagement and other measures that support long-term organizational performance. Moreover, our reporting include material cyber security aspects as well as the new topic, responsible AI.
How we measure
Sustainability data is collected and calculated using established methodologies and internal processes designed to ensure consistency and comparability across markets.
Advanias greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting is based on the GHG protocol. With defined system boundaries and underlying assumptions. Where data depends on third-party inputs or estimates, this is clarified in the methodology. We continuously work to improve data quality and coverage, particularly in areas where measurement methods are evolving.
Frameworks and standards
Our reporting is aligned with relevant international frameworks and standards, as reflected in our Annual and Sustainability Report. This includes established approaches to emissions accounting, ESG reporting frameworks, and external sustainability assessments such as EcoVadis. Where applicable, climate targets are developed in line with science-based methodologies. External benchmarks are used to assess performance and support comparability over time.
