  • Companies will be able to measure a range of sustainability initiatives, including reporting on carbon usage, meeting regulatory requirements, and develop business models around ESG, advancing towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

  • Accenture will support the integration of Salesforce Sustainability Cloud into their business policies, operating models, technologies and develop sustainability acumens.

  • The companies will also focus on broader analysis initiatives of ESG metrics during the year.

  • “The partnership will allow Accenture and Salesforce to use their joint forces to address the rapidly growing end-user demand for data-based insights around sustainability performance and metrics-driven approaches that help turn ESG topics into drivers for positive business outcomes,” said IDC senior research analyst Bjoern Stengel.
