“We already measure sustainability. How is Upright’s data different?”

Sustainability and net impact are ultimately two very different concepts that answer different questions.

In short, traditional sustainability metrics often aim to describe how a company does what it does, and to what extent it complies to certain standards and ways of working.

The net impact profile of a company, on the other hand, aims to describe what value does the company create and with what costs: the positive and negative impacts the core business of the company has on the surrounding world. From the perspective of the public sector, the net impact approach is ; crucial for understandi ng how common resources are being used.

The Upright model differs from many other approaches in seven aspects:

Measuring both negative and positive

By measuring both negative and positive impact, the Upright net impact model brings forth not just what resources the company uses - but also what positive value is being created with them. It helps public sector organizations understand how common resources are being used.

Focus on what vs. how

Whole value chain

Forward-looking

Outside-in
