Have questions? Here are some of the most common things teams ask before getting started.
The sustainability apps built on Business Central allow production companies to capture emissions data at a transaction level, linking energy consumption, travel, freight, and purchased goods directly to production activity. This gives you an accurate, evidence-based carbon footprint per production rather than relying on industry averages or retrospective estimates.
Creative Total Media's sustainability apps are designed to support the data capture and reporting requirements aligned with industry sustainability frameworks used across UK broadcasting and production, including those promoted by BAFTA albert. This ensures your sustainability reporting meets the standards increasingly required by broadcasters and commissioning bodies.
Yes. This integration is one of the key advantages of having sustainability tracking within the same Business Central platform as your production accounting. You can view financial spend and associated carbon emissions side by side, making it easier to identify where cost reductions and emissions reductions align, and to report on both dimensions to commissioners or investors.
The system is designed to capture emissions data from financial transactions that are already being processed (purchase orders, supplier invoices, travel expenses, and utility bills), so much of the data collection happens automatically as part of normal production accounting workflows. Supplementary data can also be captured through straightforward digital forms rather than complex manual processes.
Yes. The sustainability reporting capability is designed to produce the kind of structured, auditable ESG data that institutional investors, public broadcasters, and major commissioning platforms are beginning to require. Having this embedded in your core finance system means the data is consistent, traceable, and ready for inclusion in annual reports, tender submissions, or broadcaster green certifications.
