Shift Hours from Data Prep to Business Impact

with Automated Sustainability Data Services from GLYNT.AI

A global professional services firm relied on each office to find and upload their primary source data. The stack of files was sent to consultants for data entry into spreadsheets. The corporate sustainability report was completed months after the end of the fiscal year.

“Clients want advisors who are adopting AI just as fast as they are.”

The Challenge:

With 160 offices across 5 continents, a professional services firm delivered scientific and environmental advisory services to global leaders. And with the rapid diffusion of AI, the firm must focus on its highly valuable expertise.

For its own sustainability reporting, the firm relied on an outsourced service that hand-keyed data. This led to gaps in actual data and the reliance on estimates everywhere. There was no way to see the whole picture, as the team struggled to assemble their reports even 6 months late.

With deep environmental and scientific expertise, there was no point in doing the data work in house. And there was considerable value in learning how prepared, unified data sets could expand consulting engagements by unleashing data-driven advisory services

The Solution:

Streamlining Operations

Before GLYNT.AI, the professional service’s company’s corporate sustainability reporting was completed months after the fiscal year end and included a large amount of estimated data. Staff in offices around the world did the best they could, but it was no one’s primary responsibility. This led to file gaps and messy data, and more hours for the corporate sustainability team.

With automated sustainability data services from GLYNT.AI, hours are saved at each site and at the central office. The data is delivered in days not weeks, and there is more data available.

With hours of time saved, 99.5% accuracy (guaranteed), and 14 customized fields of business data added to the sustainability data, the sustainability team has the time and resources to tackle business impact. All while gaining the typical 70% cost savings from GLYNT.AI’s automated services.
