Growing demand for sustainability metrics
The demand for footprinting insights is rising as more companies aim to improve their environmental impact and keep up with new regulations. Reliable and transparent data about products, services, and operations is more important than ever, but gathering this information can be complex and time-consuming. It’s also challenging to make these insights clear and accessible beyond sustainability departments. Many businesses are realizing their current tools aren’t enough – facing limitations in scalability, transparency, and consistency of calculations. What’s needed is a unified, company-wide solution that delivers accurate, consistent sustainability insights everyone can trust and use.
Innovation meets impact with SimaPro Synergy
SimaPro Synergy, our new online platform, offers scalable life cycle assessment (LCA) calculations, data integration, and transparent environmental metrics. The platform is designed to enable enterprises to scale up LCA and integrate the resulting insights across software systems so that they can guide sustainability strategy and day-to-day decision-making. SimaPro Synergy combines the power of an online LCA calculation engine, data libraries, APIs, and a modern workflow to manage LCA models and data, to offer an innovative and flexible way to conduct life cycle assessments at scale.
What sets SimaPro Synergy apart
SimaPro Synergy enables organizations to achieve significant environmental improvements by providing transparency, flexibility, and scalability. At its foundation lies the reliable and transparent calculation engine that SimaPro is known for. Equipped with several API products, SimaPro Synergy enables companies to:
- automate company-specific data collection
- scale LCA calculations to cover the whole product portfolio
- integrate sustainability metrics into existing systems and processes (for example in Research and Development, Sales and Procurement)
Additionally, the modern workflow of SimaPro Synergy offers smart data mapping, efficient data library management, and management of configurable models.
Weave sustainability into your workflow
The combination of SimaPro Synergy and a configurable LCA model provides robust results, based on the latest scientific methods and sustainability standards. The data used for the calculations comes from globally accepted databases (e.g. ecoinvent) and is supplemented with company-specific data from your in-house systems to ensure the precision and accuracy of the results. You will gain access to reliable environmental metrics, ready to use across your organization for reporting, managing, and improving the environmental performance of your products and services. By embedding actionable environmental insights into core business processes, you can unlock opportunities for smarter decision-making, enhanced resource efficiency and sustainable growth.
One solution, unlimited possibilities
The potential for integrating sustainability metrics using SimaPro Synergy is not limited to only connecting it to the enterprise systems used by your company. You can also integrate our solution with your own software products to provide footprinting calculation as an additional functionality. We have collaborated with Tacton to make this possible in their Configure, Price and Quote (CPQ) software. Or you can work with us to develop a SimaPro-powered sector tool, as we have done with bAwear for the textile sector and Eurofins for the footwear sector.
Besides SimaPro Synergy, which is our enterprise-level solution, we also offer an LCA software for individual expert use – SimaPro Craft. And if your organization needs guidance on how to build the necessary LCA expertise, we can help with training and tailored support.
