With MS Sustainability you can track indicators such as GHG emissions (Scopes 1, 2 & 3), water, energy, air quality, waste, hazardous materials, pollutants and other climate and nature-related risk factors with proven assurance.
For the energy-intensive mining and minerals sector, legislators and market sentiment have aligned to demand sustainability reporting transparency and climate and nature risk disclosure.
As new compliance standards roll out globally, sustainability reporting has moved from a voluntary nice-to-have to a mission-critical mandatory activity with significant real-world consequences for failing to comply.
Key reporting frameworks in place include the ISSB (Industrial Sustainability Standards Board), CSRD (EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) and SEC (US Securities and Exchange Commission).
Disclosure requirements are more granular. Many sustainability frameworks require auditable reports down to a product level, scenario analysis to demonstrate climate resilience, double materiality reporting, and disclosures on carbon, water, waste, energy and other sustainability indicators.
Innovative resources companies are embracing intelligent digital tools to meet this challenge.
When choosing digital sustainability reporting software, you’ll need a solution that delivers granular data, offers compliance with evolving frameworks, and enables you to set and meet decarbonisation targets.
Complex industrial processes like mining require a specialised approach to sustainability reporting that starts with advanced data capture and processing. The need for granular activity data requires a mass and energy balance to track every step of the production process across the value chain.
In this new era of legislated accountability, your sustainability reporting solution will need the features and flexibility to meet a host of new and evolving regulations, including:
Beyond ticking the compliance boxes, your digital solution must cater to frameworks that require target setting, monitoring and tracking, as well as scenario analysis to test business resilience to various physical and transition risks.
Available as a stand-alone solution or add-on to MI Core, MI Sustainability enables you to produce accurate data-driven sustainability reports to satisfy evolving global legislative frameworks and set and achieve decarbonisation targets.

Designed to navigate multiple global frameworks and many separate ESG performance indicators, MI Sustainability is a uniquely flexible and comprehensive sustainability reporting solution for today, and the future.
Wherever you are along your sustainability reporting journey, MI Sustainability provides a flexible roadmap from ticking today’s compliance boxes through to advanced environmental, social and governance (ESG) capabilities.
MI Sustainability Standard supports organisations with ESG reporting across major voluntary and mandatory global frameworks and disclosure regulations.
It delivers centralised records that capture in-depth ESG data and supports compliance with evolving corporate sustainability reporting requirements.
On top of centralised data, MI Sustainability Advanced adds automated data capture and data quality reporting.
It includes data cleansing, organisation and validation tools (to assess data health and integrity), and advanced visualisation tools to deliver dynamic, accurate and auditable sustainability reports.
Beyond data automation, MI Sustainability Expert offers finance-grade sustainability reporting and automated validation of ESG data against mining and mineral operations data using a mass and energy balance configured to your site/s.
It includes intelligent data accrual mechanisms to complete data gaps, built-in alerts and monitoring, custom process optimisation and product carbon footprinting (PCF).
Building on these capabilities, MI Sustainability Enterprise delivers the granular analysis needed to plan, execute and evaluate your decarbonisation roadmap.
Running a steady-state simulation of your asset, it uses validated finance-grade production data to enable complex forecasting, transition planning and scenario analysis. You can adjust inputs and compare final production, emissions and consumption with advanced visualisation tools.
From under reporting sulphuric acid emissions by 26% to paying millions for unused power over time, we look at three examples where our digital sustainability platform delivered tangible results.
Our solution helps this industrial leader in Africa meet tighter compliance regulations, track electricity use, minimise their carbon tax bill and deliver mandatory auditable reports.
We empowered a battery producer to cut emissions and waste by measuring an accurate reporting baseline, setting targets and testing scenarios using steady-state simulation technology.
