SBTi v2 Scope 3 Evidence Gap

Your headline Scope 3 number is in place, but the evidence behind it is thinner than SBTi v2 expects. That is a common position and one that closes quickly.

Why this matters under SBTi v2

  • Assurance providers will want a traceable source for each material number.
  • Without supplier specific evidence, year on year movements are hard to defend.
  • Gaps tend to grow without a single source of supplier truth.

Common symptoms

  • Mostly spend based data on the top Scope 3 categories.
  • Supplier emissions saved in scattered PDFs and emails.
  • No version log or method notes alongside the numbers.

Recommended actions

  1. Build a Scope 3 evidence pack starting with the suppliers behind your top three categories.
  2. Pull public disclosures and CDP responses before sending any supplier survey.
  3. Document methodology and version history for every material category.
  4. Engage suppliers only for the gaps that materially shift the answer.

How DitchCarbon helps

  • Source linked supplier emissions and target signals in one place.
  • Coverage across millions of organisations to fill the spend based gaps fast.
  • Methodology and version notes built into the supplier dataset.
