Case Study: a global education and care solutions company achieves trusted sustainability reporting with BDO assurance

a global education and care solutions company secures limited assurance on Scope 1 and 2 GHG data in 2 months with BDO

A global education and care solutions company sought to enhance the credibility of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data in its first sustainability report. The challenge was to obtain limited assurance for its Scope 1 and 2 emissions data within a tight two-month timeline to build stakeholder trust and prepare for upcoming regulatory requirements. The company engaged BDO for its sustainability assurance services.

BDO provided a limited assurance opinion on the emissions data in accordance with AICPA standards, completing the engagement ahead of the report's publication deadline. The solution helped the company instill confidence in its disclosures and provided insights for improving future data quality. Working with BDO also positioned the company for compliance with forthcoming regulations like California's SB 253, the EU's CSRD, and Australian sustainability laws.
