Normative supports corporate emissions inventories and supplier data collection. Its product footprint tool and CSRD offering extend that scope. Buyers should verify data lineage, calculation boundaries and the proposed services before choosing a package.
Built from vendor sources checked ; AI-assisted drafting. Documentation review, not a hands-on test. How pages are made
Sustainability teams building a repeatable emissions inventory and improving supplier-specific Scope 3 data. The announced Greenly merger does not establish immediate feature parity or shared subscriptions. Reporting-framework alignment does not guarantee filing or assurance acceptance, scenarios are estimates, and vendor-reported audit or SBTi success rates were not independently verified here. Separate included advisor support from paid consultancy.
Worth shortlisting when a recurring carbon inventory and supplier-data programme justify a dedicated platform. Evaluate the complete services proposal against internal capacity and avoid paying for broader reporting scope that the team will not use.
Watch for: No public numeric package price verified. Reporting and consultancy require explicit scoping.

Vendor visuals—not a QHSEtech hands-on test.
Normative and Greenly announced a merger in September 2026. Normative still has its own product and pricing pages.
| Capability | Evidence | Scope and source |
|---|---|---|
| Corporate carbon inventory | Documented by vendor | Corporate accounting covers Scope 1, 2 and 3. Test activity mapping, estimates and the boundary used for your entities. Corporate carbon accounting |
| Primary supplier data | Documented by vendor | Suppliers can be invited by link to provide carbon data that refines value-chain calculations. Supplier engagement |
| Product footprints | Depends on scope | The PCF tool ingests product and bill-of-materials data, supports category review and exports results. Confirm purchased scope and product boundaries. Product carbon footprint tool |
| ESG disclosure collection | Depends on scope | The CSRD offering documents E, S and G disclosure collection, data-owner assignment and approval workflows. Confirm entitlement separately. CSRD reporting scope |
| Calculation evidence | Documented by vendor | The carbon platform documents traceability from source information to calculated results. Sample exports with your reviewer. Corporate carbon accounting |
| Merged product scope | Not verified | The merger announcement sets a combined direction; it does not document universal access to the other platform in existing contracts. |
| Hybrid emissions-calculation methodology | Documented by vendor | Normative publishes a proprietary implementation of the GHG Protocol that can combine transaction, activity and supplier-specific data, map records to its taxonomy, convert units and currencies, and apply emissions factors. Buyers should validate organizational boundaries, factor versions, overrides and treatment of uncertain or missing data. Published emissions-calculation methodologyCorporate carbon accounting |
| Reduction targets and scenario analysis | Documented by vendor | The carbon platform documents target setting, progress tracking, operational and material-change scenarios and comparison against reduction targets. Scenario results are planning estimates rather than guaranteed reductions and depend on the baseline, assumptions and future activity data. Corporate carbon accountingReduction scenarios, goals and SBTi-oriented planning |
| Reporting-framework exports | Depends on scope | Normative describes exports aligned with SBTi, CSRD, SECR, EcoVadis, CDP and other frameworks. A formatted export does not establish regulatory applicability, successful filing, external assurance or acceptance by a framework owner. Platform, reduction planning and reporting exportsCSRD reporting scope |
| Tasks, permissions and audit history | Depends on scope | The platform and pricing pages document assigned tasks, project-level roles, user permissions, MFA, event history and calculation traceability; SAML SSO is also listed. Confirm plan availability, segregation of duties, immutable history, report approvals and deprovisioning. Platform, reduction planning and reporting exportsPackage structure and consultancy |
| Named carbon-accounting advisor | Depends on scope | Normative states that every account includes a named GHG Protocol-certified Climate Strategy Advisor supporting data collection, inventory, disclosure, SBTi targets and reduction planning. Distinguish the included advisory allocation from separately purchased consultancy, Carbon Metric Report or implementation deliverables.

Also watch for: Post-merger product entitlements need confirmation.
Contact vendor
Essential and Premium are quote-based packages; no numeric subscription price is publicly stated on the reviewed pricing page. CSRD is identified as an add-on and consultancy services are separately purchasable. Ask for currency, billing term, renewal conditions, onboarding, supplier engagement, product footprints and advisory hours in the proposal.
Pricing sources checked : Partially verified. Public package structure and quote route verified; numeric prices and contract terms remain unavailable.
Corporate carbon accounting, supplier engagement, reduction planning and product footprints, with optional CSRD and professional-service scope. Reporting exports, advisory deliverables and post-merger product entitlements must be confirmed separately.
Ask the vendor to identify the product, region, modules, billing unit, contract term and included services in writing.
Confirm connectivity requirements for contributors and supplier respondents before designing a disconnected workflow.
The companies announced a merger in September 2026. Normative continues to present a separate offering. Ask the vendor about contract ownership, roadmap and any migration requirements.
Its supplier engagement offering collects primary carbon information via supplier invitations. Demonstrate how responses change your inventory and how incomplete responses are handled.
Its CSRD offering documents collection across E, S and G disclosures. This requires commercial scoping; corporate carbon accounting alone does not establish the full reporting package.
No. Normative documents exports aligned with several frameworks, but applicability, completeness, filing and external validation still depend on the organization's data, judgments, approvals and the framework owner or assurer.
Normative says each account includes a named Climate Strategy Advisor. Its pricing materials also distinguish separately purchasable consultancy and add-ons, so request the included hours, responsibilities and deliverables in writing.
