Pledge launches comparison feature

[ November 30, 2023   //   Chris Lewis ]

The Pledge emissions measurement platform has a feature built to enable forwarders to help their clients understand and take action on the quality of their end-to-end emissions measurements. Accuracy allows forwarders to offer emissions Data Quality Indicator (DQI) levels as part of their end–to–end shipment emissions measurements, empowering shippers to compare forwarders’ emissions estimates.

The DQI levels, developed in accordance with Smart Freight Centre (SFC) guidance, offer more clarity on the quality of the various data sources used in each calculation and the level of confidence shippers can have in the communicated emissions estimate for an end-to-end shipment.

The DQI level, generated by Accuracy for each shipment, ranks the quality of the input data into four tiers (4 – Unsatisfactory, 3 – Sufficient, 2 – Good, 1 – Excellent), in line with SFC’s DQI recommendation.

More accurate data inputs generate better DQI levels as they provide more useful emissions data for shippers.
