Independent Sustainability Assurance

Empowering Trust through Third-Party Verification.

EDAT specializes in enabling businesses to build trust and enhance their sustainable impact. Our array of services, including assurance, certification, verification, and training, spans diverse industries across the globe.

Assurance for Sustainability Reporting

In an era where transparency is essential, our Assurance for Sustainability Reporting helps businesses build trust by ensuring the accuracy of their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) disclosures. We verify sustainability reports against globally recognized frameworks such as GRI (Global Reporting Initiative), SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board), and TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures).

Voluntary Carbon Market

With carbon credits and offsets playing a critical role in sustainability, our Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) Assurance ensures that your carbon offset projects meet industry-recognized verification standards such as VCS (Verified Carbon Standard) and Gold Standard. This guarantees the credibility of carbon offset claims, helping organizations align with global carbon reduction goals.

Sustainable Finance

Investors and regulators increasingly demand accountability in sustainable finance. Our Sustainable Finance Assurance service helps businesses validate their green bonds, sustainability-linked loans, and impact investments, ensuring they align with financial sustainability regulations and frameworks.

Product Claims

Consumers demand truthful sustainability claims. EDAT is working towards providing product claims assurance services that would certify and verify product-related sustainability claims such as "carbon neutral," "biodegradable," and "ethical sourcing." This prevents greenwashing and ensures compliance with labeling standards.

Internal and Supplier Audit Services

We conduct internal sustainability audits and supplier assessments to ensure companies and their supply chains adhere to environmental, ethical, and social responsibility standards. Our audits identify gaps, mitigate risks, and help businesses improve their sustainability performance.

Training Services

Empower your teams with customized sustainability training on ESG reporting, voluntary carbon markets, regulatory compliance, and sustainable finance best practices. Our training programs equip professionals with the knowledge and tools needed to meet sustainability goals effectively.
