Accounting for Carbon Emissions solution receives seal of approval from MEP
Date Posted: 19/05/2009Banbury, 18th May 2009 – Richard Howitt MEP, the European Parliament’s spokesperson on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), has given his seal of approval to a leading carbon emissions solution offered by Northamptonshire based software provider, Amethyst Associates Ltd.
Accounting for Carbon Emissions (ACE), part of the award-winning accounts package Access Dimensions, developed by Access Accounting, allows organisations to measure and report easily on their carbon footprint without adding cost or complexity. Since its launch last year, ACE has been incorporated into a web-enabled professional services automation solution, FocalPoint, taking CO2 measurement beyond the finance function. Staff across the business can now easily input details of their carbon emissions – whenever and wherever they are based.
Richard Howitt commented, “It was very interesting to see just how easily this solution cuts through the complexity of measuring carbon emissions. ACE offers organisations the tools they need to measure and then report on carbon emissions. Not only does it provide businesses with visibility of their impact on the environment, it also demonstrates to stakeholders that they are committed to building a sustainable business.”
“Such innovation should be readily encouraged as technology providers are perfectly positioned to provide the necessary tools for businesses to reduce their carbon footprint. I hope other vendors continue to follow Access Accounting’s innovative lead.”
Geoff Wenmouth, Sales Director of Amethyst Associates Ltd, the longest established Access Gold Partner, commented, “It’s good to see this solution being recognised at the highest level for the ease in which it helps businesses to monitor their carbon emissions, effectively and as part of the accounting process. We are encouraging all of our clients to take advantage of this and show their customers that this is high on their agenda.”
Kevin Misselbrook, customer services director for Access Accounting, commented, “ACE has been developed within the heart of our accounts package, Access Dimensions, allowing carbon emissions to be tracked as part of the finance function’s normal day-to-day activity. It makes the figures as easy to access as financial reporting.
