This information gives us a better understanding of your company's overall operations, especially if you operate in more than one industry, sub-sector or value chain. The more information is added in here, the better as it also helps with contextual information for your company’s emissions inventory and decarbonisation pathway.
6. Provide an estimated indication of your company's annual revenue and projected annual revenue growth for the next 5 years
These questions are optional, but answering them will allow us to calculate emissions intensity on an emissions-per-dollar of revenue basis and develop a business-as-usual emission forecast.

1. Click on View structure
Getting your company structure right is critical. Your organization structure will inform how emissions data is prepared and collected across your company. All emissions data has to be matched to a particular facility within your structure. To get started, click on “View structure”.
Below is an overview of how the structure builder is used to map your business onto the platform. The structure builder accommodates for two grouping types: by subsidiary or by region. You can have more than one of each type in your company structure.
You can use subsidiaries and regions to group your business facilities and filter your emissions results in the dashboard. Companies tend to group their business facilities by geography (e.g. APAC, Oceania etc.), subsidiary, or business divisions (e.g. logistics, retail).
Click on the three dots next to your company name, then click on either “Add subsidiary” or “Add region/country/city”.
Add in each subsidiary or region under your company. Once done, click “Save”.
You can rearrange items in the list by clicking-and-dragging at the icon to the left of the name input, delete entries with the bin icon to the right, or add more items by pressing “Add more”.
Your company structure is now updated.
If you wish to change the list of groups, please return to step 1, click on either “Add subsidiaries” or “Add region/country/city”, and edit your list within the screen show on step 2.
Business facility is a mandatory reporting level. You must add all business facilities within your organization’s operational control during the reporting period.
<aside> 💡 Business facility definition: A business facility is defined as an activity or series of activities that forms a common undertaking or enterprise and, for the purposes of emissions reporting, generates GHG emissions. Facility boundaries determine what are direct or indirect emissions. Shell companies, holding companies, and other business facilities that do not have any associated GHG emissions do not need to be added to your company structure.

<aside> 💡 Operational control definition: A company has operational control over an operation if it (or its subsidiary) has the greatest authority to introduce and implement operating, environmental, health & safety policies at the operation.

On the main structure screen, select your desired subsidiary/region/division, and click “Add business facility”.
Input details on your business facility. The facility type dropdown corresponds to the set-up, where you identified what types of business facilities you operate. Click “Save” once done.
Your business facility is now registered in the structure.
<aside> 💡 All data that is uploaded to Unravel Carbon matched to a business facility in your company structure, using the correct spelling. If any errors are found in your data,the platform will prompt you to amend the inputs. Do note that the input field for business facility name is case-sensitive.
