ESG-Cockpit is a sustainability management platform designed to help organisations structure environmental and ESG data for reporting and analysis. It is used by companies, public institutions, and consultants that need to manage carbon footprints, sustainability metrics, and regulatory disclosures across multiple sites. The platform centres on collecting decentralised data once and reusing it across different reporting frameworks, including ESRS, GRI, and EMAS. It is particularly suited to organisations that must align internal data collection with external certification and reporting requirements without relying on fragmented spreadsheets.

Core Features

ESG-Cockpit is designed as a structured data environment for sustainability management, where organisations define indicators, collect data across locations, and link outputs to multiple reporting standards. Its main features include:

  • Cross-Standard Reporting – Enables the creation of sustainability reports aligned with multiple frameworks from a single dataset.

  • Corporate & Product Carbon Footprinting – Calculates both corporate carbon footprints (CCF) and product carbon footprints (PCF), including Scope 1–3 breakdowns.

  • Decentralised Data Collection – Allows data entry across multiple sites, time periods, and organisational units within a single system.

  • Scenario Planning & Target Evaluation – Supports modelling of measures, targets, and sustainability strategies using scenario analysis tools.

  • Auditability & Data Traceability – Tracks data sources, quality, and user roles to support verification and audit processes.

  • Graphical Dashboards & Export Functions – Provides visual outputs and exports for reporting, communication, and certification workflows.

Closing Insights

ESG-Cockpit is developed by akaryon, an Austrian company that has worked on digital sustainability tools since 1999, combining software development with environmental data modelling and consulting activities. The platform itself has been in use for over a decade and is applied by organisations ranging from municipalities to companies and consultants managing sustainability reporting and carbon accounting processes.

Examples of use include municipal and corporate contexts such as the City of Munich’s climate neutrality initiatives, as well as consulting-led implementations where ESG data is collected and processed across multiple clients. These cases illustrate different uses of the platform, from corporate carbon accounting to preparing documentation for standards such as EMAS or GRI.
