Accenture and Salesforce<\/a>\u00a0have expanded their partnership to help companies embed sustainability<\/a> into their business, meet growing end-user demand for data-based insights and accelerate towards United Nations\u2019 sustainable development goals (SDGs)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new partnership also focuses on providing the C-suite with true visibility into their company\u2019s historical and real-time environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data. Organisations will track, measure, and act on a range of sustainability initiatives, including reporting on carbon usage, supporting customer engagements, creating positive consumer experiences<\/a>, meeting regulatory requirements, and developing new business models.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery CEO<\/a> is recognising their responsibilities don\u2019t stop at the edge of the corporate campus or Zoom,\u201d said Marc Benioff, chairman and CEO at Salesforce.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBy integrating sustainability deep into the fabric of our companies, our businesses will become more successful, our communities more equal, our societies more just and our planet healthier. We\u2019re incredibly proud to be working with Accenture to help customers more readily drive sustainability programs that benefit all stakeholders and create business value.\u201d<\/p>\n

Salesforce Sustainability Cloud helps businesses measure and manage their carbon footprint by offering a 360-degree view of their corporate environmental impact. It also helps organisations transparently report their investor-grade climate data. As part of their new collaboration, Accenture will leverage Salesforce\u2019s Sustainability Cloud to develop sustainability insights that can scale across organisations and their ecosystems.<\/p>\n

\u201cClimate change continues to be one of the most critical challenges facing business and the broader planet,\u201d adds George Oliver, CEO of Johnson Controls.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased to be working with Salesforce and Accenture in accelerating sustainability activities for JCI, for our customers and our communities, especially as momentum for action continues to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later this year, Accenture and Salesforce will work together to expand their combined platform and services to track and analyse broader ESG metrics, from water and waste management to diversity and inclusion. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
