SustainAsia and Enablon Join Forces to Offer Integrated Compliance and Sustainability Solutions in the Asia Pacific Region

July 13, 2007

Hong-Kong – July 12th ““ SustainAsia, the Hong Kong based sustainability consultancy and Enablon, a leading provider of corporate responsibility and EHS management software solutions have entered a partnership to provide full end-to-end compliance and sustainability solutions: Enablon will provide dedicated software solutions and SustainAsia will offer consulting and support services around their implementation.

The partnership will enable companies in the Asia Pacific region to benefit from integrated compliance and sustainability performance solutions: from sustainability consulting and corporate training to IT solutions customization and support.

Christophe Bongars, SustainAsia’s Executive Director and founder comments: “Companies face increasing risks due to regulatory pressures and expectations over environmental, social and governance issues. Asia is no exception to this global trend. We chose to partner with Enablon because they are the recognized leader in this field and their experience in providing sustainability software solutions is unmatched. With Enablon, Asian companies will now be able to collect consistent corporate responsibility data across the world and publish reliable Environmental, Social and Governance performance and compliance reports.”

Most multinational companies anticipate rapid shifts in external regulatory pressures and increased market expectations in areas such as greenhouse gases inventories and disclosure. These issues have far reaching implications in the way companies manage their global operations in terms of compliance, reliable supply chains, efficient natural resources and energy management.

Philippe Tesler, Enablon’s VP of Business Development and co-founder adds: “The stakes are so high, that companies can no more afford to use unreliable information systems for CSR. Not only is it dangerous in terms of reputation but this also translates into missed business opportunities: most global companies now require their suppliers to provide them with reliable and frequent information on their sustainability performance. In our work with more than 100 global companies, we’ve witnessed first hand the benefits that companies experience from implementing a robust corporate responsibility information management system. They are able to effectively manage their environmental, social, and economic impacts, easily comply with regulatory requirements, reduce risk exposure and create greater transparency for stakeholders.”

As part of this agreement, SustainAsia will provide Enablon software solutions for: CSR & EHS reporting and management, Compliance Audits Management, Incident Management and Greenhouse Gases Emissions tracking.
