SASB Launches ERP Partnership for Software Providers

The Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, a nonprofit that develops sustainability accounting standards for publicly listed U.S. corporations, announced the launch of the Enterprise Resource Platform Partnership Program for software providers.

Software providers PE International and CSRware are the initial founding partners for the program, with the ERP the first in a suite of tools to help companies track their performance on SASB metrics, access SASB disclosure guidance and note analysis alongside data. Auditors can view and assess data, as well as evaluate internal controls.

"To facilitate corporate use of SASB standards in SEC filings in compliance with Regulation S-K, we need world-class standards as well as world-class technical resources for companies," stated Dr. Jean Rogers, SASB CEO and founder. "The SASB ERP Partnership is the first in a suite of tools designed to help companies integrate SASB standards into their existing disclosure processes."

More information on joining the ERP is available by contacting Eli.Reisman@sasb.org.
