A Defensible Emissions Report From the Books You Already Keep
SCOP3™ turns your General Ledger, Chart of Accounts and supplier invoices into an assurance-ready Scope 1 and 2 GHG inventory and disclosure report. It’s built by an SCC and CARB accredited verification body, so every figure is designed to stand up to an audit.
Designed around what auditors look for
Emissions reporting should be as routine as preparing a tax return. We audit emissions reports for a living, so SCOP3™ produces reports a verifier or CPA can follow line by line.
Starts from the books
No separate data collection exercise. Your General Ledger is the starting point, uploaded the way you would in accounting software like QuickBooks.
Transparent, not a black box
Methods, emission factors and assumptions are disclosed for every category, so nothing has to be taken on trust.
No carbon expertise needed
Plain-language categories and a guided review mean a bookkeeper can produce a credible inventory.
Independent by design
SCOP3™ is built for assurance readiness. It doesn’t provide assurance itself: that comes from an independent CPA or verifier.
What’s inside SCOP3™
Rapid Reporting
A Scope 1 and 2 inventory from your General Ledger: stationary combustion, mobile combustion, purchased electricity and refrigerants, calculated with Canadian emission factors.
Master File and audit trail
Every figure shows its inputs, formula, emission factor and source, and every review answer or dismissal is recorded for your reviewer.
EC Emissions™
Employee commuting campaigns by QR code, unique link or email. Employees answer in under a minute, and results roll up by department and location.
CarbonQR™
Attach carbon footprints to your products to reach eco-minded buyers and investors.
Two outputs: one for your stakeholders, one for your reviewer
Every output comes from the same classified ledger, so the numbers always tie back to your books.
- Disclosure report: a client-facing report aligned with IFRS S2 climate-related disclosures and the GHG Protocol’s Scope 1 and 2 categories.
- Master File: each figure’s inputs, formula, factor and source, so an assurance provider can test it.
- Optional guided narrative: an AI assistant walks you through the narrative sections question by question. The emissions figures stay fixed, so the narrative never changes the numbers.
From General Ledger to disclosure report in six steps
Load the books
Upload your General Ledger and Chart of Accounts for the reporting year.
Add source documents
Upload utility bills, fuel receipts and service invoices in bulk. SCOP3™ reads the vendor, quantities and units from each.
Automatic classification
SCOP3™ screens every GL line, matches vendors and keywords to emission categories, and flags anything it can’t place with confidence.
Calculate emissions
Activity-based where a document gives real quantities, spend-based where only the dollar value is known, with Canadian emission factors throughout.
Review before reporting
A pre-flight review lists data gaps and weak methods in three tiers: fix before reporting, recommended, and consider.
Report
Produce your disclosure report and Master File, ready for your stakeholders and your assurance provider.
What reviewers ask for, and how SCOP3™ handles it
Built for third-party limited assurance under CSAE 3410, and benchmarked against the fields regulators such as CARB ask for.
Each reported number traces back to a GL line or source document.
Whether a figure is activity-based or spend-based, and which emission factor was used, is visible for every line.
CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs and SF6 reported separately for each source, not just a single CO2e figure.
The pre-flight review flags missing data and weak methods before a report goes out.
Every review answer and dismissal is recorded as part of the audit trail.
Outputs align with IFRS S2 and the GHG Protocol’s Scope 1 and 2 categories.
Every decision on the record
SCOP3™ prepares and documents your figures, and you submit your reports yourself. Illustration with sample data.
Built for the people who keep the books
Customers, lenders and supply chains increasingly ask for emissions data, and rules like California’s SB 253 push those requests further down the supply chain.
Small and mid-sized businesses
The problemCustomers, lenders and supply chains ask for emissions data, with no in-house carbon expertise.
A credible Scope 1 and 2 inventory and disclosure report from records you already keep.
Bookkeepers and accounting firms
The problemClients want sustainability reporting as a service, but most tools assume carbon expertise.
Familiar accounting-software uploads and a guided review, so you can add emissions reporting to your services.
Assurance providers and lenders
The problemEmissions figures that can’t be traced or tested.
A Master File linking every figure to its ledger line, document, method and factor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which emissions does SCOP3™ cover?
Scope 1 and 2 today: stationary combustion, mobile combustion, purchased electricity and refrigerants. Scope 3 (supply chain) is a future direction, built on a mature Scope 1 and 2 foundation.
Can Standard Carbon assure an inventory built in SCOP3™?
No. SCOP3™ is built for assurance readiness, but assurance must come from an independent CPA or verifier. Independence rules under ISO/IEC 17029 and ISO 14065 prohibit a verification body from assuring a system it designed.
Do we need a sustainability team to use it?
No. SCOP3™ is built for bookkeepers, accountants and the businesses they serve. Plain-language categories and a guided review do the technical work.
Does SCOP3™ connect to QuickBooks?
SCOP3™ works from QuickBooks-style ledger exports today. A direct QuickBooks connection is planned.
Does SCOP3™ file my emissions report?
No. SCOP3™ prepares and documents your figures and produces your disclosure report. You submit your reports yourself.
How is our financial data handled?
Security and data handling are part of the product. Your financial data stays inside SCOP3™, and SOC 2 controls are being implemented alongside the platform.
