Green Project Technologies and Giki Launch AI Decarbonisation Agent to Convert Scope 3 Emissions Data into Supplier Action Plans

Green Project Technologies and Giki Launch AI Decarbonisation Agent to Convert Scope 3 Emissions Data into Supplier Action Plans

Green Project Technologies, a supply chain decarbonisation platform, has announced an exclusive partnership with sustainability action experts Giki to launch an AI-powered decarbonisation agent integrated within its platform, addressing what both companies describe as the most expensive gap in corporate climate programmes: the space between measuring emissions and actually reducing them. The agent combines Green Project's supplier emissions data infrastructure with Giki's library of more than 750 decarbonisation actions, built and validated by a team including former CDP leadership, to deliver personalised reduction plans and internal business cases to every supplier in an enterprise programme regardless of scale. The partnership is already live in pilot with two enterprise customers spanning both one-to-one supplier coaching and large-scale group engagement models.

 

The Problem the Partnership Solves

 

Most enterprise Scope 3 programmes stall at the same point: emissions data is collected, sits in a dashboard and nothing in the supply chain actually changes. Bespoke decarbonisation advice has historically been available only to a buyer's top strategic suppliers, while the next several thousand suppliers, where the majority of emissions actually sit, are left with a carbon footprint and no plan. Sam Stark, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Green Project Technologies, said that at a time when suppliers are drowning in emissions requests but lack the ability to translate their carbon footprint into an actionable plan, this partnership represents something the market has been missing.

The scale problem is structural rather than a matter of effort. A sustainability consultant can provide bespoke decarbonisation guidance to dozens of strategic suppliers but cannot economically serve thousands of smaller suppliers across a global value chain. The AI agent addresses this by automating the work that would previously require a consultant or weeks of internal effort, delivering it within the platform automatically at the moment a supplier is ready to engage. Stark said the platform moves beyond showing suppliers their footprint to saying exactly what to do next, with cost direction, expected impact and guidance on how to gain internal buy-in.

 

How the AI Agent Works

 

The decarbonisation agent combines three inputs to generate personalised supplier action plans. The first is the supplier's emissions profile including sector, geography, maturity and corporate and product-level data already held within Green Project's platform, eliminating the need for suppliers to re-enter information they have previously provided. The second is an AI agent that researches publicly available information to answer the screening questions that would normally narrow down the relevant action list, meaning suppliers do not need to complete lengthy questionnaires to receive tailored guidance. The third is Giki's library of more than 750 decarbonisation actions drawing on global best practice road-tested by large companies and rigorously analysed using Giki's proprietary action data schema.

Jo Hand, Co-founder of Giki, said one of the key challenges businesses face after measuring their carbon footprint is knowing where to start on reduction, and that by partnering with Green Project the company is putting practical, sector-specific decarbonisation actions directly into the hands of suppliers worldwide. The integration gives enterprises the ability to deliver personalised reduction plans to every supplier whether they have 50 or 5,000, a scalability threshold that fundamentally changes what is achievable in Scope 3 supplier engagement programmes. Early user feedback has highlighted the clarity of the recommendations and the significantly reduced burden on supplier teams.

Customer Validation and Market Reception

 

Ish Hussain, Senior Associate in ESG at Vialto, said the partnership has created a clearer, more actionable sustainability roadmap for their teams and that combining data and behavioural change in a way that makes sustainability feel both achievable and impactful has helped turn sustainability ambitions into practical, measurable action. The reference to behavioural change alongside data reflects an understanding that emissions reduction requires suppliers to change how they operate rather than simply reporting differently. Steph Carr, Finance Director at Excel Communications, said working with the Giki platform has brought clarity, structure and momentum to how the company sets and tracks sustainability goals, helping stay accountable and make progress in a way that feels achievable and impactful.

The agent complements Green Project's existing suite of market-based instruments including renewable energy certificates, carbon offsets and removals, sustainable aviation fuel certificates and biomethane, giving suppliers a single platform for both the operational changes that cut emissions at source and the instruments needed to meet targets when physical decarbonisation cannot move fast enough. This integration of operational decarbonisation guidance with market-based solutions addresses the full spectrum of supplier climate action rather than focusing solely on either emissions measurement or credit purchasing.

Outlook for AI-Enabled Scope 3 Supplier Engagement

 

The Green Project and Giki partnership reflects a critical maturation point in corporate Scope 3 management, where the focus is shifting from data collection to demonstrable supply chain emissions reduction. As mandatory climate disclosure frameworks including CSRD and SBTi supplier engagement requirements intensify, the gap between measured emissions and verified reductions will face increasing regulatory and investor scrutiny. Platforms that can automate the delivery of credible, sector-specific reduction guidance at supplier scale will capture growing demand from procurement and sustainability teams seeking to demonstrate genuine Scope 3 progress rather than data accumulation.

Whether Green Project and Giki can expand beyond the pilot stage to serve the thousands of enterprise programmes where the supply chain emissions challenge is most acute will depend on the quality of the AI agent's recommendations across diverse sectors and geographies and the depth of supplier adoption within live programmes. Sustained delivery would establish the combined platform as a leading solution for Scope 3 supplier decarbonisation at scale and demonstrate that AI can close the advice gap that has historically limited the ambition of corporate supply chain climate programmes. The next phase of corporate climate action is increasingly likely to be defined by which organisations can move from measurement to verified reduction across their entire supplier base.
