Rationale
CDP supply chain members are interested in the emissions intensities associated with the goods/services they are purchasing. This question allows your organization to provide these details, while outlining the methodologies used by your organization to estimate these for your goods/services.

Requested content
General
- If using the Export/Import functionality, it is essential that you check that data has entered correctly into each field in a question.
Name of good/service (column 1)
- Please provide the name of the product you will be providing data for.
Description of good/service (column 2)
- Please describe the good or service for which you are supplying product lifecycle GHG data. This may be a good such as a “180-gram tube of toothpaste in a cardboard package” or a service such as the “design of a color A5 advertising flyer.” This will be referred to as “a unit” in column 4 of SC4.2b.
- Products from different locations may have markedly different footprints due to local circumstances, such as the use of different types of fuel or different generation methods used to create electricity for the grid. As long as it is not prohibited under the product footprinting methodology that you use, then you can differentiate between products made at different locations. You should however:
- Explain what you have done;
- Give the locations that supply products to your requesting members, if applicable; and
- Not selectively present or cherry-pick the locations that give the lowest product footprints, by providing either the product footprints for a range of locations or the average footprint figure across all locations.
Type of product (column 3)
- Please use this drop-down menu to clearly identify the type of product or good/service for which you are providing data.
- Intermediate products are inputs to the production of other goods or services that require further processing, transformation, or inclusion in another product before use by the end consumer. Intermediate products are not consumed by the end user in their current form.
- Final products are goods and services that are consumed by the end user in their current form, without further processing, transformation, or inclusion in another product, though they may be sold to a retailer first before being sold on to the end user. The end user may be an individual or a business.
SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) (column 4)
- Please provide the Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) of the product you are providing data for. This refers to the quantity of products bought by the customer for a particular price/amount of emissions. If you don’t have an SKU for the product/service you are providing data, please give the quantity of the named good/service provided in column 1.
Total emissions in kg CO2e per unit (column 5)
- Please give the emissions for the final/intermediate product in kg CO2e/unit of good or service.
± % change from previous figure supplied (column 6)
- If you have previously reported a figure to CDP and are supplying an updated figure, please give the percentage difference between the two figures.
Date of previous figure supplied (column 7)
- Give the date of the previous figure in day(DD)/month(MM)/year(YY) format.
- If you are using the Export/Import functionality, please check that the imported date is correct.
Explanation of change (column 8)
- Explain why the figure has changed.
Methods used to estimate lifecycle emissions (column 9)
- Please give details of the method that you have used to estimate lifecycle emissions. You can state if you have followed published standards like ISO 14040 & 14044, the GHG Protocol Product Life Cycle Accounting & Reporting Standard, PAS 2050 or one that you have developed yourself. You can also provide details on the following: boundary of assessment; GHG included/excluded; data sources references used.
