Tennaxia, a French market leader in sustainability data collection and analysis software, has formed a partnership in the U.S. with New York-based Third Partners, a boutique sustainability strategy group. The partnership will offer both technology and services for companies looking to improve, scale up or streamline their efforts in this evolving field.

The Tennaxia–Third Partners collaboration will focus on helping the growing number of companies that need to meet and report on accepted sustainability standards, as well as aligning sustainability and core business objectives. This includes businesses involved in measuring, analyzing and improving environment, health and safety (EHS) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies and programs.

“Tennaxia has entered the U.S. market with a proven software, which can be tailored to customer needs for collecting data across sites and for a variety of reporting obligations,” explains Juliette Barre, Principal, Tennaxia North America.  

“We have connected with Third Partners because of their expertise and experience in the U.S.,” she adds, noting that the firm has worked for a range of clients that include Brooklyn Brewery, Vice Media, UNICEF and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NDRC). “Sustainability managers will have everything they need for measurement, compliance and analysis, with a higher level of validation – tailored software along with hands-on strategy and support services. Dozens of interviews with sustainability leaders in the U.S. demonstrated an interest in such a combination.”

Addressing complexity with clarity/precision
“Sustainability data is becoming a key factor in core business decisions,” says John Haugen, a founder and principal of Third Partners. “Accurate and comprehensive data is a strategic imperative: it’s no longer sufficient to use simple spreadsheets. Companies today need to employ dedicated software tools and services that are specifically geared for global data collection, CSR reporting requirements, and achieving performance goals.

“Tennaxia’s software is comprehensive yet agile – it can be implemented quickly and tailored to each client,” he adds.  “With our CSR and data expertise, our solution supports clients with the features and services they need – and nothing they don’t. We design our scope accordingly, unlike ‘packaged’ software on the market today.”
