Karen Boyce, Client Coordinator, Mighty Media Studios GHG Inventory Development, CDP Disclosure Review

Working with ADEC Innovations has exceeded every expectation we had. While we expected them to help us establish our initial environmental sustainability program, we did not anticipate how quickly ADEC Innovations would achieve incremental, measurable results.

We have worked with ADEC Innovations over multiple reporting seasons, and they have always provided us with fast, friendly, and expert service. Their precise and detailed recommendations have enabled us to maximize our CDP Climate Change and Water scores, and their insights have been invaluable in helping us better understand the methodology and given us clear direction on how to improve our response and sustainability efforts.

Baystate Health

Having worked with ADEC Innovations (formerly FCS) for over two years now, we’ve seen improvement in our management and reporting of climate change risk and opportunities. During 2016, we were challenged with the new CDP Climate Change methodology. Through ADEC’s detailed understanding of the new methodology, we were efficiently guided through all new data and reporting requirements. Specifically, their quality checks of our calculations and pre-scoring assessment services were highly valued. I’ve particularly welcomed their professionalism, expertise, and ability to keep us to timelines – all in all, great value.
