Watsonx.data to store ESG data required for auditing purposes

All organizations reporting on ESG internally or externally are storing data into data warehouses which is expensive, but they are doing that because the organizations have data warehouses for other applications and its just easier to store compliance data to data warehouses. However, having a low-cost solution for storing compliance data is great for customers and having the ability to query that data through Envizi platform will smoothen the auditing process. 

Few of the customers mentioned that they have to rely on other teams to store and retrive data when required and sometimes it takes days or even weeks to access the data for auditing purposes. Having that data stored in watsonx.data and providing functionality for retrieval when required will bring down the costs and also increase efficiency for customers. 

Moreover, having this data in watsonx.data and summarizing this data will also enable Envizi to help create content for the sustainability report on which the sustainability teams spend days to create those reports. Mostly the content is similar to previous year's sustainability reports.
