The Business Intelligence Group’s Stratus Awards program highlights organizations that are pioneering innovative solutions leveraging cloud technologies to drive industry advancements. The recognition for SpheraCloud Integrated Sustainability in the Software as a Service (SaaS) category underscores Sphera’s commitment to empowering companies to take proactive steps in driving meaningful sustainability progress and building stakeholder trust while managing compliance and regulatory reporting.
The ever-evolving global regulatory environment is especially challenging for companies, and businesses need to be able to stay on top of regulatory updates and manage compliance data across the enterprise. SpheraCloud Integrated Sustainability is a SaaS-based platform that goes beyond simple data collection and calculations. The solution facilitates collaboration between executive leadership in various departments, including sustainability, product, supply chain and finance and allows stakeholders to leverage multiple, complementary data sources. This enables organizations to gain a complete picture of their emissions and efficiently produce measurable, actionable and auditable results across Scopes 1, 2 and 3.
“We are honored to be recognized for the third consecutive year with a Stratus Award from the Business Intelligence Group for our efforts in empowering companies to take a proactive, comprehensive approach to sustainability reporting,” said Paul Marushka, Sphera’s CEO and president. “Many companies are struggling to connect siloed, disparate data throughout their organizations and value chains on their journey toward greater sustainability. And they need the software, data and expertise to help them set and achieve sustainability goals.

SpheraCloud Integrated Sustainability enables businesses to navigate the complex data collection, assessment and reporting responsibility for Scopes 1, 2 and 3 and establish credible, transparent and robust sustainability management.”
