The PCF Validated Dashboard is an advanced internal tool designed to provide Syensqo teams with validated, plant-level Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) data for finished products. The dashboard supports sustainability reporting, product benchmarking, and data-driven decision-making by offering granular, up-to-date, and traceable carbon footprint metrics. It covers the entire GBU portfolio and is structured to ensure transparency, reliability, and ease of use.


 


What is inside this dashboard :

  • Validated Product List

    • Presents the portfolio of finished products with their net CO₂ footprint.
    • Includes PCF excluding biogenic CO₂ removal, validated biogenic CO₂ removal, and net PCF (including biogenic CO₂ removal).

  • Biogenic Validated Product List

    • Focuses on products containing biobased carbon.
    • Displays validated biogenic CO₂ removal, biogenic carbon content, total carbon content, and renewable carbon index (RCI).

  • Breakdown

    • Offers a detailed breakdown of the finished product footprint by scope (raw materials, energy, waste, transport).
    • Shows the contribution and emission factors for each raw material and process step.

  • Contribution Changes

    • Enables year-over-year comparison of PCF contributions for finished products.
    • Highlights key emission drivers and visualizes increases or decreases in contributions by sub-scope (e.g., raw materials, transport, waste).
  • GBU Strategic marketing 
  • GBU Sustainability experts
  • GBU Global R&I Manager
  • GBU Digital transformation experts
  • GBU Technology Manager
  • Corporate Procurement Sustainability
  • Corporate Sustainability
  • R&I Life Cycle Analysis experts

Data Loading

Plant-by-Plant Loading:

  • Data is loaded and validated progressively for each plant, with granularity at the material code, plant, and year level.

Refresh Frequency:

  • The dashboard is updated every Tuesday and Thursday evening, as well as on the 14th of each month, to ensure users always access the latest validated information.

PCF Validation

  • Validated Data Only:

    • The dashboard displays only data that has been validated by the PCF Process Owner, ensuring high reliability and traceability.
  • Dedicated Validation Process:
    • All PCF values are subject to a robust validation process, including source verification and approval by the PCF Process Owner.
  • Progressive Validation:
    • Only validated data is visible to users, and the validation status is clearly indicated for each entry.
  • Traceability:
    • Each PCF value is linked to its plant, year, and material code, allowing for full traceability and auditability.

Key Features:

  • Comprehensive Coverage:
    Includes all finished products in the GBU portfolio, with data at the material code, plant, and year level.
  • Validated and Reliable Data:
    Only data validated by the PCF Process Owner is displayed, ensuring high reliability.
  • Granular Filtering:
    Users can filter data by year, GBU, site, commercial product, and material name.
  • Biogenic and Renewable Carbon Insights:
    Provides biogenic carbon content and renewable carbon index for products with biobased content.
  • Detailed Scope and Contribution Analysis:
    Offers breakdowns by scope and raw material, with emission factors and contribution analysis.
  • Change Tracking:
    Enables year-over-year comparison to track changes in carbon footprint and identify emission drivers.
  • User-Friendly Navigation and Export:
    Easy navigation between sections and export options for further analysis.
  • Regular Updates:
    Data is refreshed multiple times per week and monthly.
  • Documentation Access:
    Supporting documentation is accessible directly from the dashboard.
