SAP Sustainability Footprint Management vs. SAP Sustainability Control Tower

SAP Sustainability Footprint Management is an ERP-centric, AI-enabled solution that helps enterprises calculate and manage corporate and product environmental footprints (GHG Scope 1, 2, and 3) at scale. The product replaces spend-based estimates by integrating directly with SAP S/4HANA and non-SAP systems via public APIs, reusing existing operational data to produce granular, auditable footprint calculations. Integration with SAP Sustainability Data Exchange enables collection of primary supplier footprint data, improving Scope 3 accuracy.

SAP Sustainability Control Tower is an ERP-centric, AI-enabled solution and the single entry point for audit-ready ESG reporting and sustainability performance management. It integrates sustainability, financial, and operational data from SAP and non-SAP systems into a single governed data foundation, producing finance-grade ESG metrics aligned with CSRD/ESRS, EU Taxonomy, IFRS S1/S2, and GRI.
