Epicor Carbon Connect is now available as a cloud-based service to help manufacturers manage sustainability and carbon management.
ERP software developer Epicor says that, using the software, companies will be able to identify, analyse, audit, track, manage, benchmark and report on their carbon emissions, environmental impact and energy consumption.
Matt Muldoon, vice president of product marketing for Epicor, says that, when Carbon Connect is coupled with Epicor ERP utility invoices and production schedules (drawn from current or forecasted orders), manufacturers will also be able to calculate emissions output and then budget for environmental cost factors.
"Financial management applications are the central hub toward effective management of sustainability challenges," comments Muldoon.
"Deploying an enterprise-class carbon accounting solution in the cloud will empower our customers to meet evolving reporting and regulatory requirements, while optimising the performance, cost and value of their governance, compliance and risk efforts."
