Case Study: GLP Capital Partners achieves 30–50% improved ESG reporting efficiency and better data quality with SpheraCloud (Sphera)

Optimizing ESG Reporting Efficiency at a Global Asset Management Firm

GLP Capital Partners, a global alternative asset manager with $124B AUM and 3,300 employees, faced lengthy, localized and manual ESG reporting processes—relying on Excel, Power BI and SharePoint across 3,000 properties in 17 countries—and struggled with GHG emissions calculations, data quality, scalability and alignment to standards. To address this, they evaluated providers and selected Sphera’s SpheraCloud Corporate Sustainability (SCCS) as the core platform alongside ERM-led digital transformation services.

Sphera implemented SCCS integrated with its LCA For Experts database and supported localization and change management to onboard 400+ users, automate data collection and distribution, and centralize ESG reporting. The Sphera solution delivered measurable impact: an estimated 30–50% efficiency gain in data collection and distribution, faster reporting cycles, improved data quality and consistency across jurisdictions, and better ability to meet GRESB, TCFD/SFDR and investor requirements.
