Collaboration empowers organizations to create sustainable change through data-driven decision-making.

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Organizations worldwide face mounting pressure from regulators, investors, employees, customers and communities to effectively track, manage and report on environmental, social and governance (ESG) and sustainability goals. Leading advisory CPA firm Baker Tilly US, LLP (Baker Tilly) announces strategic collaborations with Sustain.Life and Sumday, two pioneering organizations transforming emissions-reporting solutions for businesses of all sizes.
