The carbon footprint of consulting.
Business travel, remote working, offices, subcontractors: service companies concentrate their emissions in Scope 3. Kabaun automates collection from your expense reports and HR tools for a GHG Protocol-compliant report.
Flights, trains, hotels, vehicle hire: client assignments account for 60-80% of a consultancy's emissions. Kabaun imports your expense reports and travel management data to calculate each journey automatically.
Remote working & offices (Scope 1, 2 & 3 cat. 7)
Office energy, commuting and employees' remote working compose a Scope 3 cat. 7 that is often underestimated. Kabaun calculates the real footprint of your teams according to their geographical spread.
Subcontracting & purchases (Scope 3 cat. 1)
Freelancers, subcontractors, IT purchases, software licences: your service purchases generate significant indirect emissions. Kabaun maps them automatically from your accounting data (FEC, ERP export).

Client story
"We used to spend weeks consolidating expense reports from 400 consultants for our carbon report. Kabaun connects to our travel management tool and calculates everything automatically. Our CSR team can finally manage instead of entering data.
Our consultants use multiple expense management tools (Concur, corporate cards...). Can Kabaun aggregate everything?
Yes. Kabaun imports exports from your expense management tools and your corporate travel provider. Each journey is categorised by transport mode and converted to tCO₂e using the appropriate ADEME and DEFRA factors.
We have 6 offices across 3 countries. Is the group consolidation automatic?
Yes. Each office is an entity in Kabaun with its own local emission factors (electricity mix, transport factors). The group report is consolidated automatically and you can filter by country, office or department.
Our clients ask for our carbon report in tenders. Does Kabaun generate a transmissible document?
Yes. Kabaun generates a complete carbon report in PDF, GHG Protocol compliant, with a full audit trail. You can send it directly to your clients or include it in your tender responses: it has become a differentiating commercial argument.
