The relationship will leverage UL Solutions’ expertise in
environmental, social and governance (ESG) advisory services, data
management and software solutions, including the UL Solutions
ULTRUS™ software portfolio, encompassing centralized and unified
digital offerings to help customers manage regulatory, supply chain
and sustainability challenges. OpenEngagement will provide
strategic guidance and support to customers throughout the
reporting process, helping them to address climate-related risks
and opportunities.
“Strong ESG performance is now a strategic imperative for
long-term business success,” said Ken Wilson, Australasia regional
director at UL Solutions. “With the new climate law in Australia,
the evolving regulations, like the Corporate Sustainability
Reporting Directive, and a dynamic global ESG landscape,
organizations must demonstrate transparency, attract responsible
investors and build sustainable operations. Our new relationship
with OpenEngagment will allow us to serve customers better and
further complement our comprehensive suite of ESG verification
services and software, including our UL 360 ESG data management
software, part of ULTRUS™ software, that helps businesses simplify
the complexities of ESG excellence.”
Australia’s recent passage of the Treasury Laws Amendment bill
introduces mandatory climate-related reporting for large and
medium-sized companies, including disclosures on climate-related
risks and opportunities and greenhouse gas emissions across the
supply chain. This legislation marks a significant step toward
enhancing climate transparency and accountability in the Australian
market.
“OpenEngagement is thrilled to be chosen as UL Solutions’
strategic partner for ESG and sustainability reporting in
Australia,” said Brendan Henry, CEO of OpenEngagement. “We founded
OpenEngagement on the premise that we would only offer solutions
that provide real value to our customers. With the 2025 enactment
of mandatory climate-related reporting requirements, the
combination of the award-winning UL 360 ESG data management
software and proven pre-assurance methodologies provides an
impactful solution.”
UL Solutions also delivers enterprise sustainability services
and other verification-related services, such as environmental
product declarations and zero-waste-to-landfill claim validation
services.
