Get Emission Data from Suppliers

Collecting emissions data from your suppliers is essential for tracking and managing your purchased articles accurately within kolum. By gathering supplier-provided emissions data, you ensure your records reflect the upstream footprint of your goods, enabling transparent reporting and clear supply chain visibility.

Suppliers can provide emissions data for purchased CBAM goods either by submitting it directly in kolum or by sending the data in bulk using the Excel or CSV upload template. Once the supplier provides the data, it is linked automatically to your articles and imports, ensuring your emissions data is organized and ready for validation when needed.

When you add a new supplier in kolum, you can link them to specific purchased CBAM goods by assigning the CN code when you create the import and connect it to that supplier. Those items then appear on the supplier’s side, allowing them to submit emissions data only for the goods they provide, at the CN-code level. If multiple articles share the same CN code, the supplier only needs to enter the data once.

Using kolum to collect emissions data from suppliers keeps your workflow efficient while ensuring accountability and reducing manual data entry.

Options for Collecting Emissions Data

1. Supplier Enters Emissions Data Directly via kolum Invite your supplier to kolum, link them to the relevant purchased CBAM goods, and allow them to enter direct and indirect emissions data directly within the platform. This is best when your suppliers have the emissions data readily available and are active on kolum.
