Ensuring Sustainability Claims Meet Global Standards

At Edat, we follow a rigorous certification process to ensure that all sustainability claims comply with internationally recognized standards and best practices. Our approach is designed to provide credibility, transparency, and trust in sustainability reporting.

Pre-engagement

Establishes the scope, objectives, and conditions of the verification or validation, ensuring mutual understanding and agreement between the client and the verification body.

Evidence-gathering or sampling

Collects data, documents, and other information relevant to the GHG statement, applying sampling methods to verify the reliability of reported figures.

Strategic analysis

Evaluates the broader context, including the organization’s activities and sector-specific considerations, to guide the verification or validation approach.

Site visits

Conducts on-location inspections and interviews to confirm that reported operations and processes match actual practices and documentation based on project requirement and assurance level.

Opinion issuance

Deliver a formal conclusion, stating whether the verified or validated GHG information is accurate, complete, and conforms to the applicable standards.

Risk assessment

Identifies and prioritizes potential sources of error or misstatement in the GHG data, focusing efforts on areas with the greatest impact on accuracy.
