❝SPARQ360’s level of experience and personal commitment has added a new dimension to our Sustainability mission.❞

RCS Logistics
A global manufacturer of heavy equipment parts was under pressure to comply with new client demands and upcoming regulations, especially in Europe. But sustainability was no one’s full-time job. Their only in-house sustainability resource also oversaw global procurement. SPARQ360 stepped in to provide hands-on sustainability execution, helping the company stay ahead while building internal capability.
The Challenge
Our client needed to provide ESG reporting for key European clients while building a long-term capability to manage emissions and sustainability strategy across the U.S. and Europe. But the internal bandwidth was stretched thin, and sustainability know-how was limited. The business needed results—fast—without building an entire department.
SPARQ360’s experienced team deploys a boots-on-the-ground approach and mediate operations and customer’s leadership teams allowing us to make unbiased, objective decisions based purely on what is best for our customers. Our team provided hands on guidance to warehouse staff, documented process changes and enabled inter-departmental communication to maximize their 3PL engagement. This was the missing link for this client.
The Strategy
SPARQ360 delivered targeted sustainability support through experienced analysts and proven tools. We focused on high-impact deliverables:
- Carbon accounting across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions
- Development of a complete annual sustainability report
- Creation of site-level and enterprise-level reporting structure
Our work provided this client with the data, confidence, and materials necessary to meet client expectations while supporting their internal capability-building over time.
The Implementation
- Used the ISO-certified Carbon+Alt+Delete platform for emissions calculations
- Collected data across multiple U.S. and EU business units
- Delivered two years of complete sustainability reports for external publication
- Built repeatable templates for internal use going forward

The Results
- Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions fully calculated for the global business
- Annual sustainability reports delivered and published
- Centralized reporting process built for use by internal staff in future years
- Avoided internal overload and fast-tracked compliance with European client expectations
Instead of hiring and training an internal team or building new tools from scratch, this company partnered with SPARQ360 to get immediate, expert execution—and left with a working framework for the future.
