Question 2

How does the platform support preparation for specific regulations like California’s SB 253 and SB 261?

Accepted Answer

Watershed has purpose-built templates for major reporting requirements. In the case of California's SB253 and SB261, you can quickly collect the right business data for compliant SB 253 greenhouse gas emissions measurements and report on the climate risks that are material to your business for SB261 reporting.

Watershed is aligned with TCFD and built for assurance with tools to identify errors, detect anomalies, and track every calculation for auditors to sign off on. Our in-house policy team is on the ground and in-tune with California regulations and the regulatory board CARB as they evolve.

Question 3

How customizable are Watershed reports?

Accepted Answer

Customers can create custom reports with any metric in Watershed's BI tool, called "Drill down." You can create saved views and export these reports.

Question 4

Can Watershed ensure my disclosures are audit ready?

Accepted Answer

Watershed generates audit-ready reports aligned with various reporting frameworks and regulatory requirements. The platform automatically pulls data from your current emissions measurements, targets, and reduction plans to populate multiple reports simultaneously, making the reporting process more efficient and reliable year over year.

The Disclosures module offers guided workflows with embedded climate intelligence that helps ensure your reports meet audit standards. Watershed's comprehensive platform helps businesses meet disclosure requirements with rigorous measurement and audit-grade reporting. All footprint measurements go through 150 error checks and flag anomalies.

Additionally, Watershed has achieved SOC 2 Type II certification, confirming the strength and efficiency of their security controls, which further supports the audit-readiness of your reports. Most importantly, when audited 100% of Watershed customer footprints have passed.
