FAQ

What is SAP Sustainability Data Exchange?

Think of SAP Sustainability Data Exchange as a secure network hub to share sustainability information. It provides a standardized format and a secure connection for businesses to exchange complex data, like product carbon footprints (PCFs), with their suppliers and customers. Instead of relying on insecure emails and inconsistent spreadsheets, the platform acts as a "single source of truth", ensuring the data you request is the same data your partner provides, formatted for immediate use in your reporting and analysis.

Do my suppliers and partners need to be SAP users to exchange data?

No, they do not. The solution is designed for interoperability. It provides standardized methods and templates for data submission, allowing your partners to share their sustainability information regardless of the internal systems they use.

How does the solution adapt to the specific sustainability standards of different industries?

The platform is built on flexible, global standards like those from WBCSD PACT and Catena-X. This foundation can be configured to meet the unique reporting needs of various sectors, whether it's the Drive Sustainability initiative in automotive or specific material traceability requirements in manufacturing. Our consulting services help tailor the platform to your industry's precise compliance landscape.

How long does a typical implementation project for SAP Sustainability Data Exchange take?

While the timeline depends on the number of suppliers you're connecting and the complexity of your data, a phased implementation can begin delivering value relatively quickly. A foundational rollout can often be achieved in 3-5 months, followed by broader expansion across your supply chain. Our roadmap begins with a discovery phase to establish a clear timeline for your business.
