What Is SBTi Consulting?
SBTi consulting supports organizations in setting greenhouse gas reduction targets that are aligned with climate science and recognized global standards. Rather than focusing only on calculations, effective SBTi consulting helps translate climate requirements into realistic, business-aligned targets.
As we approach 2026, science-based targets are transitioning from voluntary sustainability goals to mandatory procurement requirements for enterprise supply chains. A structured SBTi approach helps you secure these contracts and demonstrate credible climate action while avoiding operational overcommitment.

The Strategic Value of SBTi Consulting for Businesses
Implementing science-based targets is more than a climate commitment. It is a strategic decision that strengthens credibility, improves decision-making, and positions your organization for long-term resilience. Here is how SBTi-aligned targets can support business performance:
- Stronger Credibility: Science-based targets show your climate commitments are grounded in recognized methodology, building trust with customers, investors, and partners.
- Competitive Advantage: Validated SBTi targets help organizations stand out in procurement and sustainability assessments and signal readiness for evolving expectations.
- Improved Risk Management: SBTi-aligned targets help identify emissions hotspots and climate-related risks, enabling more proactive planning.
- Investor and Customer Readiness: Many investors and large customers now expect science-based targets. SBTi alignment supports access to capital and strengthens key relationships.
- Operational Focus and Efficiency: Improvements: Clear emissions tracking and prioritization often lead to more focused investments and better alignment across teams.
Do These SBTi Challenges Sound Familiar?
Pressure from Enterprise Buyers
“A major enterprise client just told us we need an officially validated SBTi target by next year or we risk losing our preferred vendor status.”
Struggling with Scope 3 Data
“We know we need to set a science-based target, but mapping our value-chain emissions feels overwhelming and we don’t know where to start.”
Limited Internal Expertise
“We have basic GHG tracking in place, but we lack an in-house climate expert to translate that data into the SBTi’s complex target-setting pathways.”
Fear of Overcommitting
“We have basic GHG tracking in place, but we lack an in-house climate expert to translate that data into the SBTi’s complex target-setting pathways.”
Validation Pushback
“We tried submitting our targets to the SBTi but keep getting feedback requests. We need help navigating the strict validation criteria.”
Shifting Procurement Rules
“Contractually, we need to provide validated climate targets within the next 12 months to maintain our current enterprise supply chain contracts.”
