Credible Scope 3 supplier claims, built on verified evidence.
Enterprise buyers are asking for more than emissions numbers. They want reduction trajectories, evidence of progress, and output that fits their disclosure format. Athian's five-step workflow handles the collection, verification, and attestations, so your team can stand behind what it submits.
What your buyers require
Category 1 supplier programs don't accept self-reported figures. They require demonstrable reduction trajectories, documentary proof that reduction activities are underway, and output formatted to a specific disclosure standard: CDP, GHG Protocol Category 1, or SBTi-aligned reporting. Each claim needs a documented basis an auditor can work from directly.
Emission reduction commitments
Demonstrate year-over-year progress, not just point-in-time measurements.
Evidence of progress
Provide proof of your reduction activities on demand.
Disclosure format compliance
Match the specific format demanded by each buyer's reporting standard.
Verification readiness
Report with confidence, knowing you have supporting evidence for every data point.
What each Athian step removes from your team's plate
Athian's AI-powered workflow is configured for your specific obligations, so your team reports figures it actually verified, every time, with a complete evidentiary chain behind each claim.
1 | Define
Configure your category 1 standard once: thresholds, evidence types, reporting period, and document format by supplier tier. That definition runs every subsequent step automatically. No re-explanation each cycle.
2 | Collect
Suppliers submit into structured windows. Each sees exactly what's required, in what format, by when. Submissions arrive consistently across your cohort--no chasing, no format consolidation before review can start.
3 | Review
Before your team opens a file, Athian checks each submission against your configured thresholds, flags outlier figures, and surfaces evidence gaps across the cohort. Your reviewers spend time on judgment calls, not discovery work.
4 | Attest
Dual attestation from the supplier and your compliance reviewer is captured in a timestamped record. You get named signatories and an explicit accountability chain, without a separate attestation process to coordinate.
5 | Handoff
Every submission, gap finding, reviewer decision, and attestation is compiled into a structured evidence package organized by Scope 3 criterion. Nothing to assemble when disclosure or audit time comes.
Ready for whoever needs to see it
At cycle close, Athian produces a compiled supplier evidence package -- not a folder of uploaded files. Every claim has a documented basis, a named signatory, and a timestamp. Hand it directly to an auditor, submit it to CDP, or cite it in a GHG Protocol Category 1 disclosure.
- Timestamped supplier evidence organized by Scope 3 criterion
- AI gap analysis for each evidence item against protocol thresholds
- Reviewer decisions with any override notes
- Dual attestations — supplier and compliance team — with named signatories and timestamps
- Final pass/fail status per supplier against defined reduction thresholds
