Communicating Progress with Confidence

The Report stage is where environmental and ESG performance is brought together into clear, credible communication. Once impacts have been measured, analysed, reduced and validated, organisations need reporting that reflects progress accurately and supports stronger accountability. This pillar brings together the services that help clients structure disclosures, communicate carbon performance, strengthen governance and present environmental data while clearly distinguishing internal review from independent verification or assurance in a way that is useful to clients, investors, procurement teams and internal stakeholders. It is designed for organisations that want reporting to do more than meet a requirement, using it instead to build trust, demonstrate progress and support better decision-making.

At this stage, we help clients prepare reporting outputs that are aligned with relevant requirements and expectations, whether that involves SECR disclosures, climate-related reporting, voluntary carbon reporting or product-level environmental reporting through EPDs. We also help ensure reporting is supported by clear governance, consistent methodology and strong internal oversight, so that reported information remains credible and useful over time. Strong reporting not only communicates performance, it also creates a stronger foundation for future action and continuous improvement.

Reporting obligations and boundaries depend on the organisation, reporting period and applicable rules. SECR guidance does not impose an identical reporting scope on every business. We agree which environmental disclosures are in scope; this service does not by itself establish compliance with every wider ESG regime. EPD and carbon-neutrality work must address the applicable ISO 14025:2026 and ISO 14068:2026 requirements and relevant programme rules.

How We Can Help You Report Environmental Performance

Measurement & Reporting

We help clients structure environmental and carbon reporting so that disclosures are clear, consistent and aligned with recognised requirements and stakeholder expectations. This includes supporting SECR disclosures, voluntary carbon reporting and wider sustainability reporting where relevant.

Strategy & Governance

Strong reporting depends on clear ownership and oversight. We advise clients on how environmental reporting should connect to governance, leadership accountability and ongoing performance review, helping ensure reporting supports better business decisions.

Carbon Management

Carbon management outputs often sit at the centre of environmental reporting. We help clients communicate baseline emissions, trends and progress over time in a way that is technically robust but still clear to a wider audience.

Carbon Neutrality

We support clear reporting of carbon-neutrality commitments or claims, including the defined boundary, period, method, reductions, remaining footprint and any offsets. Claims need substantiation and appropriate qualifications. Carbon neutrality is distinct from net zero, and a consultancy report is not automatically an independent assurance opinion.

Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)

EPDs provide a structured format for reporting product-level environmental performance. We support clients in using these outputs where verified product data is needed for tenders, specifications or wider environmental reporting.

Four Key Outcomes

01

Clearer environmental disclosures

We help clients prepare reporting outputs that are aligned with relevant requirements, recognised frameworks and stakeholder expectations.

02

Stronger credibility with stakeholders

Clear, well-structured reporting improves confidence with clients, investors, procurement teams and supply chain partners.

03

Better governance and oversight

When reporting is embedded into governance, it supports stronger accountability, clearer ownership and more consistent performance review.

04

A stronger basis for future improvement

Good reporting helps organisations communicate progress today while creating a stronger evidence base for the next cycle of action.

Frequently Asked Questions

What carbon reporting and SECR support does Critical Path provide?

We help structure carbon and environmental disclosures, including SECR support, voluntary greenhouse gas reporting and relevant product information. Work can include data preparation, methodology, reporting boundaries and clear explanation of results. We agree which requirements and outputs are in scope; this service does not automatically cover every environmental, social and governance reporting regime.

Which UK businesses need Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting?

SECR applies to UK quoted companies and certain unquoted companies and limited liability partnerships, subject to the relevant qualifying rules and exemptions. Reporting requirements differ between organisation types. Eligibility needs to be checked against the applicable legislation, reporting period, group position and energy-use provisions; it should not be inferred from a generic company-size label alone.

Can we publish a voluntary carbon report if SECR does not apply?

Yes. Organisations outside mandatory SECR reporting can choose to publish carbon information for customers, procurement teams or other stakeholders. A voluntary report should explain its boundary, period, method, emissions covered and important limitations. Clearly distinguish measured results, estimates and future targets, and state accurately whether any independent verification or assurance has been completed.

How is carbon reporting different from independent assurance?

Carbon reporting communicates emissions information and the methods behind it. Independent assurance or verification evaluates specified information against agreed criteria under a defined engagement. Preparing a report does not make it independently assured. Critical Path can help prepare reporting and evidence, while the role and conclusions of any independent provider must be described separately and accurately.
