A Carbon Roadmap for SMEs

A practical carbon tracking primer for trade association members and small and medium enterprises (SMEs)

The Sustainability Alliance brings together trade associations and chambers to collectively address sustainability challenges as well as drive industry-wide initiatives to reduce waste and greenhouse gas emissions. Together with our appointed consultants, BDO Consultants Pte Ltd, the Sustainability Alliance invites you to participate in a workshop with practical, hands-on introduction to carbon tracking, designed to support trade association members and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) at early stages of their sustainability journey.

Participants will be guided through foundational concepts, interactive exercises, and a supported practice session using realistic, low-barrier examples. The workshop is designed to be accessible even for very small teams and first-time participants, with no prior knowledge required.

This session is for you if you’ve ever thought …

1. “I don’t feel confident about taking the first steps in carbon tracking – and I don’t know where to begin.”
2. “I already have some data (utilities, fuel bills, invoices), but I’m not sure how to use it properly.”
3. “How do I identify which activities in my business actually generate emissions?”
4. “Can carbon tracking help me control costs or prepare for future financing requirements — or is it just reporting?”

By the end of this session, participants will have a clearer understanding of:

• Where emissions come from in a business context
• How “getting started” with carbon tracking realistically looks like
• How basic carbon data can support cost awareness and business readiness

Who Should Attend？

Preferably the company’s CorpPass holder (or a representative with CorpPass access), as the carbon accounting platform functions optimally when accessed by the authorised CorpPass user.

What to Bring

To support the guided data-entry practice, we ask that participants bring the following:

• Electricity bills covering the past 12 - 24 months (monthly or quarterly)
• Basic fuel usage records from the past 12 - 24 months (e.g. petrol or diesel receipts, refrigerant gas invoices)
• A laptop or tablet for hands-on participation
