Climate Accounting System for a Multinational
How I analyzed SBTi FLAG-aligned data pipelines for AJE Group’s Bio Amayu suppliers.
Overview
I worked with a consulting team to design and execute a climate impact assessment for AJE Group’s agricultural supply chain behind Bio Amayu, a climate-positive beverage brand. I led the data-collection design and standards alignment that allowed the company to quantify, compare and improve the climate performance of its suppliers under SBTi FLAG and GHG Protocol.
Challenges
AJE Group needed to prove and improve the climate performance of dozens of agricultural suppliers, but data was fragmented, inconsistent and not aligned with international standards. Without a robust climate accounting system, “climate positive” risked being a marketing claim instead of a defensible metric.
My Role
- Designing the supplier data-collection architecture
- Defining variables required by SBTi FLAG and GHG Protocol
- Mapping system gaps and governance risks
- Translating raw data into climate-strategy insights
Methodology
1. Supply-chain data architecture
I designed the data-gathering process for agricultural suppliers, defining land-use, inputs, yields and practices required for SBTi FLAG-compliant accounting.
2. Data architecture & diagnostic framework
I designed the supplier-level data model and diagnostic process, defining the variables required to capture production flows, land-use change and regenerative agriculture practices in line with GHG Protocol and SBTi FLAG guidelines.
3. Gap & governance analysis
I mapped missing data, weak controls and system constraints, identifying what prevented the supply chain from being fully auditable and scalable.
