Your clients are asking
Large corporates and giga-projects measure their value chain. Their suppliers are asked for Scope 1 and 2 figures, and soon for product-level data.
Carbon accounting · ESG reporting · EU CBAM
Carbon data you can defend in an audit.
Sedra turns invoices, meter readings and supplier data into a GHG Protocol inventory, a multilingual report and a costed reduction plan. Built for companies across the MENA region, from the Gulf to North Africa, and delivered with our sustainability experts.
Methodologies aligned with
- GHG Protocol
- ISO 14064-1
- IFRS S2 (ISSB)
- Saudi Exchange ESG Guidelines
- EU CBAM
- Saudi PDPL
Why now
Carbon data has become a commercial requirement.
Large buyers, export markets and lenders now ask for emissions figures they can rely on. Companies that answer quickly and credibly keep their contracts and win new ones.
Exports to the EU
Since 1 January 2026, EU importers of steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen and electricity are liable for the emissions embedded in those goods. They need verified data from their suppliers, from the Gulf to North Africa.
Lenders and investors
Banks, funds and listing rules increasingly expect climate disclosures. Sustainability-linked financing starts with a credible baseline.
Regional ambitions
Saudi Arabia targets net zero by 2060 and the UAE by 2050. In North Africa, exporters whose leading market is Europe are directly exposed to its carbon rules. Measurement is the first step in every case.

The platform
Everything a carbon programme needs, in one place.
Nine modules share one data model, one methodology and one audit trail.
GHG inventory
Scopes 1, 2 and 3, the 15 Scope 3 categories screened, location- and market-based electricity.
AI data capture
Bills and invoices read in Arabic, French and English, validated by your team before use.
Emission factor library
Versioned factor sets with source, year and region on every factor, reviewed by our experts.
Supplier engagement
A multilingual portal to collect supplier-specific data and cut Scope 3 uncertainty.
EU CBAM
Embedded emissions per product and the data communication EU importers require.
Targets and reduction
Targets, scenarios, costed actions and an abatement cost curve in your local currency.
Reports and disclosures
Multilingual GHG report, IFRS S2 and Saudi Exchange ESG mapping, Excel exports.
Compliance centre
Readiness by framework, evidence locker and a verifier workspace with sampling.
Consultant workspace
Sedra experts and partner firms run several clients from one portfolio view.
Compliance and methodology
Built to stand up to verification.
Sedra is designed around the questions an auditor asks: where does this number come from, which factor was used, who changed it, and can you reproduce it.
01 · CALCULATION
Deterministic by design
Emissions are computed by code from activity data and emission factors. Artificial intelligence never produces an emission figure.
02 · VALIDATION
Human in the loop
Extracted data is counted only after a named person validates it. Low-confidence fields are flagged for review.
03 · FACTORS
Versioned methodology
Every factor carries its source, year, region and GWP basis. Factor sets are versioned and locked once validated.
04 · LINEAGE
Full traceability
Each figure links to its record, its source document, its factor and its author, from the dashboard to the report.
05 · PUBLICATION
Frozen reports
Publishing a period creates a versioned snapshot. Published figures do not move when data or factors change later.
06 · ASSURANCE
Verifier access
External verifiers get read-only access to a period, random sampling with full lineage, and a findings workflow.

Why Sedra
The rigour of a consultancy. The speed of software.
