Cargo owners, logistics providers, and carriers are under increasing pressure to report and reduce transport emissions in line with global climate goals. The Smart Freight Centre (SFC) Conformity Assessment Scheme provides an internationally recognized standard for assessing alignment with the ISO 14083:2023 Greenhouse gases — Quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions arising from transport chain operations.With the launch of the Market-Based Measures (MBM) Specification, the scheme now covers emissions from purchased transport services using market-based instruments (e.g. SAF certificates, book & claim systems). Our independent verification service helps organizations demonstrate robust alignment with both the ISO 14083/GLEC and the MBM Specification — ensuring high-quality, credible reporting of GHG emissions.
Participation in the scheme helps companies:
Scope review and alignment check
Methodologies, activity data, and MBM evidence
Sample tracing and system evaluation
Aligned with SFC templates and ISO 14083
Feedback, clarifications, and public disclosure support
