Scope 3 Procurement Summary

The Scope 3 Procurement Summary object represents the amount that the organization spends for one procurement category. Scope 3 procurement summary quantifies the effect on atmospheric warming, represented in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO₂e) by using a matched emissions factor from an associated Procurement Emissions Factor Item record.

Here are some general rules for scope 3 procurement summary:

  • The currency in the inflation rate record must match the currency in the scope 3 procurement summary.
  • Inflation rates are required for the years between the scope 3 procurement summary calendar year and the emissions factor scope 3 year.
  • If the required inflation rates aren’t available, the app permits the scope 3 procurement summary to be related to the emissions factor scope 3 dataset.
  • When the scope 3 procurement summary and the emissions factor scope 3 dataset have the same year, the current inflation rate is 0%.
  • When the scope 3 procurement summary year is later than the emissions factor scope 3 dataset, the current Inflation rate is calculated by using the years of the emissions factor scope 3 dataset through the year before the scope 3 procurement summary:
    1Current Inflation Rate = 
2    
3( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 1 Inflation Rate )  
4× ( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 2 Inflation Rate )  
5× ( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 3 Inflation Rate ) - 1
    Here's an example of the current inflation rate by using the years of the emissions factor scope 3 dataset.
    Year Inflation Rate % 1 + Inflation Rate per year
    2013 0.0146480000  
    2014 0.0162220000 1.0162220000
    2015 0.0011860000 1.0174272393
    2016 0.012616000 1.0302631013
    2017 0.021301000 1.0522087357
    2018 0.0244260000 1.0779099862
    2019 0.018122000 1.0974438710
    2020 0.012336000 1.1109819
    If Emissions Factor year is 2013 and Dataset is 2020

    Current Inflation Rate = (Inflation for 2020 - 1) *100 = 11.0982

  • When the scope 3 procurement summary year is earlier than the emissions factor scope 3 dataset, the current inflation rate is calculated by using the years of the scope 3 procurement summary through the year before the emissions factor scope 3 dataset:
    1Current Inflation Rate = 
2
3-1 × ( ( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 1 Inflation Rate )  
4       × ( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 2 Inflation Rate )  
5       × ( 1 + Inflation Rate Year 3 Inflation Rate ) - 1 )
