Accreditation & Compliance · Gap Assessments
Know where you stand before verification day.
Structured gap analysis between your current GHG management practices and the requirements of the applicable standard — so you know exactly what needs to change, and in what order.
Surprises in a verification engagement are expensive. A gap assessment eliminates them.
Many organisations that commission GHG verification for the first time encounter significant findings — data quality issues, calculation errors, documentation gaps, and process weaknesses — that could have been identified and remediated in advance. A structured gap assessment is the most cost-effective way to understand where you stand before the verification clock starts.
EDAT's gap assessments are structured around the specific requirements of the applicable standard — ISO 14064-3, your target registry's verification requirements, or the applicable regulatory framework. We assess your current GHG inventory, data systems, documentation, and internal controls against each requirement, and produce a prioritised remediation roadmap.
Standards & Frameworks Applied
Why this matters
Pre-Verification Clarity
Understand exactly which requirements your current GHG programme meets, partially meets, and does not yet meet — before verification begins.
Prioritised Remediation
Findings ranked by severity and verification impact — so you know where to focus remediation effort for maximum verification readiness.
Cost Reduction
Corrective action requests during a live verification engagement are expensive. Remediating gaps before verification reduces both cost and timeline.
Faster Verification
Organisations that have completed a gap assessment before their first verification engagement typically complete it significantly faster.
How the engagement works
Criteria Definition
Establish the assessment criteria — the specific requirements of ISO 14064-3, your target registry, or applicable regulation.
Current State Assessment
Review of your GHG inventory, calculation methodology, data systems, documentation, and internal controls against each criterion.
Gap Report & Roadmap
Prioritised gap findings with severity ratings, root cause analysis, and a sequenced remediation roadmap with timeline estimates.
