The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. In order to make the 2030 Agenda a reality, broad ownership of the SDGs must translate into a strong commitment by all stakeholders to implement the global goals.

At Deloitte, we see huge opportunities to use technology to assist organisations globally with identifying, selecting and reporting on their efforts against the SGDs. Currently many organisations are including, or looking to include sustainability reporting specifically linked to the SDGs, however, there are limited tools available that provide organisations with the ability to track and measure their sustainability efforts.

The Ecountable product is a scoped ServiceNow application that enables organisations to ideate, discover and measure sustainability efforts against the SDGs. It facilitates the process of goal creation through to completion using an engaging framework that drives efficiency and commitment into the goal setting process.

Ecountable is a solution that streamlines the goal setting process and increases goal visibility across the organisation. It consolidates the information into a singular platform, and has the capability to pull data from existing ServiceNow systems.
