Slalom

Carbon per million dollars of revenue. The legacy industry-standard reference (CDP, MSCI). Useful for cross-sector context, but distorted by margin — high-margin firms appear artificially efficient. Read alongside the operational and asset intensities for the full picture.

OpEx (operating expenditure) is the running cost of the business — staff, services, energy, materials. This shows how carbon-intensive operations are per million dollars of spend. Removes the margin distortion that revenue-based ratios introduce.

EVIC (Enterprise Value Including Cash) is the firm's total capital footprint — equity + debt + cash + minority interest. The EU's standard intensity measure (SFDR PAI 3) — answers: how much carbon does each million of capital deployed in this business produce?

PP&E (Property, Plant & Equipment) plus leased real-estate assets is the firm's physical infrastructure on the balance sheet. This shows the carbon intensity of that physical footprint — uses Scope 1+2+3 for consistency with the other headline intensities. Surfaces stranded-asset risk for asset-heavy firms.

Carbon per FTE (full-time-equivalent employee) — the diagnostic measure for people-leveraged businesses where headcount, not capital, drives delivery. Captures the office, energy and travel footprint per person.

Slalom committed to procuring 100% renewable electricity by 2030 as part of its SBTi-validated targets. The firm also targets leasing office space in sustainable buildings (LEED-certified, BREEAM-certified, all-electric, low-GWP refrigerant, high energy efficiency ratings) when entering new leases.

• Business travel reduction

  Business travel (Scope 3 Cat 6) is Slalom's largest single emissions source at 13,450 tCO2e in 2024 (up from 9,988 in 2019). Slalom offers resources and tools to employees to encourage green travel options and smarter travel choices, such as reducing trips, minimizing travel distances, and choosing eco-friendly transportation.

• Office energy efficiency & electrification

  Slalom follows energy-efficiency best practices throughout its office operations (LED lighting, equipment sleep settings, etc.) and prioritizes leases in sustainable buildings (LEED/BREEAM-certified, all-electric, low-GWP refrigerant).

• Employee commuting reduction

  Employee commuting (Scope 3 Cat 7) was 8,839 tCO2e in 2024. Slalom raises employee awareness through initiatives like green commuting campaigns during Earth Month, and incentivizes green transportation options by offering office amenities like bike lockers, public transportation benefits, and locating offices near transit hubs.

• Sustainable supplier engagement

  Purchased goods and services (Scope 3 Cat 1) dominate the value chain at 20,954 tCO2e in 2024 (45% of total). Slalom plans to implement a sustainable supplier engagement program, focusing on suppliers with the highest emissions.
