Short answer
Scope 3 supplier data is the emissions information behind your purchases. SBTi v2 expects more supplier specific data with traceable evidence.
Spend based vs supplier specific
Spend based data uses industry averages to estimate emissions from how much you spend. It is fast to get started with but blunt.
Supplier specific data comes from the supplier or their disclosures. It is more accurate, more useful for decisions, and stands up better under assurance.
Where supplier data comes from
Public disclosures, CDP responses, sustainability reports, supplier portals, and direct supplier engagement. DitchCarbon brings these signals together for supplier level Scope 3 readiness.
