EY
The EY Sustainable Travel Approval Tool (STAT) is designed to encourage employees to book more sustainable travel choices and support an organizations’ carbon ambition. It provides our travelers and leaders greater visibility to both the financial and carbon impacts of business travel. It builds off past approval tool successes and gives users tangible emissions information at the time they need it, prior to booking. The tool illustrates relatable emissions facts to traveler understand the impact of the emissions they will incur. The tool also quantifies the benefits of not travelling and using a virtual alternative.
STAT consumes multiple data sources across air, hotel and ground transportation into a central repository ahead of visualizing the carbon impact into a graphical interface when building a proposed trip that really enables travelers to make informed decisions on their proposed trip. A number of API’s, data normalization, visualization and technical calculations, all built within the platform, enable a new way to view carbon impact for a traveler’s journey. Further integrating with our internal approval tool, through power automation and API connectivity shows multi-product integration into an end-to-end process of cost and carbon calculation.
STAT will help reduce the travel carbon footprint by putting control into the employees’ hands.
