Sweep

Managing sustainability data can be overwhelming, especially for companies dealing with complex supply chains and multiple reporting requirements. Sweep is a software platform that streamlines sustainability data collection, compliance, and reporting for companies of all sizes. It simplifies sustainability management by guiding businesses through three essential steps: Track, Disclose, and Act. It centralizes carbon emissions, waste, water usage, and other ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) data, making it easier to analyze and act on.

The platform is built for:

• Enterprises that need to manage data from multiple sources and scale sustainability initiatives.

• Midmarket companies looking to simplify their sustainability reporting and integrate it into their operations.

• Financial institutions that need to assess the sustainability impact of their investments.

Case Studies

Margo

The Challenge

Margo, an IT consulting firm with 400+ employees, wanted to measure and reduce its greenhouse gas emissions but had no in-house carbon experts. They needed a clear, automated way to track emissions and engage employees, customers, and suppliers across their offices in Paris, London, and Warsaw.

"None of our team members were carbon experts or knew where to start to measure and reduce our emissions. The clarity and accessibility of the Sweep platform made it easy to understand which data to collect and which partners to involve."

— Olivier Hemar, Partner and Founder of Margo

The Solution

Margo implemented Sweep to automate carbon tracking and reporting. Within weeks, they:

• Measured Scope 1 and 2 emissions across three countries.

• Used automated surveys to collect detailed carbon data.

• Built a roadmap for emission reduction and reporting.

The Results

Margo now has a structured, data-driven approach to carbon reduction. With Scope 1 and 2 measured, they’re moving to Scope 3, working with their network to reduce both direct and indirect emissions efficiently.

SSE

The Challenge

SSE, a multinational energy company with over 12,000 employees, needed a better way to manage its sustainability data. The company relied on manual processes and spreadsheets, making it difficult to track and report emissions. With multiple business units handling data separately, versions were inconsistent, and auditors struggled to sift through annual reports.

SSE wanted a centralized, structured system to improve audit readiness, ESG reporting, and CSRD compliance while ensuring data accuracy.

"With Sweep, we now have all of our climate and nature data in a structured, easy-to-read format that we know is a single source of truth."

— Rhys Williams, Sustainability Manager at SSE

The Solution

SSE implemented Sweep to replace its fragmented data collection process. With Sweep, the company:

• Uploaded bulk historical data, automatically formatting and applying conversion factors.

• Eliminated spreadsheet errors by consolidating all sustainability data in one place.

• Provided real-time reports to auditors and leadership, increasing visibility into emissions.

• Set an emissions baseline using six years of data, aligning with SBTi targets.

By switching to continuous data collection, SSE moved from annual reporting to more frequent, accurate updates, improving decision-making and compliance tracking.

The Results

SSE now has a clear, structured process for ESG reporting and compliance. Leaders can instantly identify emissions hotspots, ensuring better management and audit transparency. The company is already preparing for CSRD compliance by using Sweep to spot reporting gaps and collect additional social impact data for future regulations.

With automated, real-time ESG tracking, SSE has moved beyond outdated spreadsheets and into a data-driven, audit-ready future.

Plans & Pricing

Sweep does not publicly list its pricing on its official website, but some third-party sources suggest that pricing starts at $254 per month for a basic plan and goes up to $849 per month for a growth plan. It's best to contact Sweep directly for accurate pricing and plan details tailored to your organization's needs or to request a demo.

Closing Insights

Sweep is a powerful tool for companies that need to track, manage, and report their carbon and ESG data efficiently. Its strengths lie in its automation, centralized data management, and ability to support compliance with regulations like CSRD. Businesses dealing with complex supply chains and large amounts of sustainability data will benefit from its structured approach and reporting capabilities.

However, Sweep’s pricing is not publicly available, and while third-party sources suggest starting prices, businesses will need to contact them directly for accurate costs. It’s also best suited for medium to large enterprises, as smaller businesses may find its features too advanced for their needs.

Would Sweep be a good fit for your company? That depends on how much sustainability data you handle and how automated you want your reporting process to be. If manual spreadsheets and scattered data sources are slowing you down, it might be worth a closer look.
