About the Customer

Operating in more than 50 countries, the customer featured in this case study is a large engineering and construction company headquartered in Houston, Texas. As a future-focused organization, they are committed to becoming the industry leader in clean fuels and carbon capture while providing a safe and inclusive environment for their globally diverse workforce, fulfilling their responsibilities as socially responsible employers. 

The Challenge

Future-focused organizations recognize the importance of investing in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) initiatives to secure their business’s future and meet commitments to employees, investors, and customers. When the stakeholders of this global engineering and construction company increased their focus on ESG and sustainability, particularly with data-driven, transparent reporting against set targets, the company knew it was critical to improve ESG data collection and management.
