ESG and Sustainability Professionals
Turn California’s SB 253 and SB 261 requirements into a repeatable, real-world compliance system. You’ll build a defensible Scope 1–3 inventory with an actionable Inventory Management Plan (IMP), develop clear disclosure tables, and produce a public SB 261 risk report aligned with TCFD and IFRS S2. All outputs are structured for seamless reuse under ESRS, IFRS, and SEC frameworks—saving time, reducing rework, and ensuring consistency across jurisdictions.

Evaluate Scope 1–3 methodologies (including Scope 3 category selection) and plan assurance approaches with sound sampling and documentation practices. Identify high-risk issues early—such as weak boundaries, unsubstantiated claims, or inconsistent factors—and advise clients confidently on governance, disclosure strategy, and public-posting readiness.
International Companies with U.S. Operations
Build a California-grade reporting backbone that can be easily adapted for ESRS, IFRS, or SEC disclosure requirements.
