Informed 365

Core Features

Informed 365 approaches emissions management as part of a broader ESG governance and supplier-data ecosystem rather than as a standalone carbon calculator. Its Emissions Module is structured to improve Scope 3 data quality over time by replacing spend-based estimates with supplier-provided emissions information, while the ESG & Business Intelligence modules focus on governance visibility, risk oversight, and cross-functional reporting workflows. Some of its more distinctive capabilities include:

• Supplier-Led Scope 3 Data Collection — Allows organisations to invite suppliers directly into the platform to submit emissions and ESG data, reducing reliance on static spend-based estimations over time.

• Progressive Data Maturity Tracking — Differentiates between estimated, supplier-submitted, and verified emissions data so organisations can monitor improvements in disclosure quality and audit readiness.

• Material Topic and ESG KPI Oversight — The ESG & Business Intelligence modules connect sustainability metrics with governance workflows, enabling organisations to track ESG priorities, responsibilities, and reporting obligations across departments.

• Board-Ready ESG Intelligence Dashboards — Generates executive-facing dashboards and reporting views intended for board oversight, disclosure preparation, and management review rather than only operational carbon accounting. (informed365.com)

• Workflow-Based ESG Evidence Management — Maintains document trails, approvals, and traceable reporting workflows to support assurance and regulatory review processes.

• Climatiq-Powered Emissions Calculations — Uses Climatiq’s emissions-factor infrastructure to support emissions estimation while integrating calculation outputs directly into ESG governance and reporting workflows.

Closing Insights

Informed 365 originated in Australia as a governance-focused ESG management platform intended to help organisations move beyond fragmented spreadsheet-based sustainability reporting. Over time, the company expanded its offering to include dedicated emissions-management functionality while maintaining a strong emphasis on governance controls, auditability, supplier engagement, and board-level oversight. This governance-first positioning differentiates Informed 365 from many carbon-accounting tools that focus primarily on emissions calculations rather than broader organisational accountability processes.

The platform’s Emissions Module reflects increasing market pressure around Scope 3 transparency and disclosure assurance. Informed 365 places particular emphasis on progressive improvement of emissions-data quality by allowing supplier-provided information to replace estimated values over time. Its integration with Climatiq’s emissions-factor infrastructure also illustrates how the company combines third-party emissions datasets with structured ESG governance workflows.

Recent developments have included partnerships with Integral GRC and Orka Advisory. These collaborations are aimed at linking ESG reporting with enterprise risk management, governance processes, and sustainability advisory services, reinforcing Informed 365’s positioning as ESG governance infrastructure rather than only a disclosure tool.
