For much of the industry, the Sustainable Apparel Coalition’s sustainability suite of tools has been the measurement method of choice.
While the SAC owns and oversees the Higg Index methodology, the tech platform Higg hosts the data itself. The SAC’s last independent review of the Higg Index was more than five years ago. The Higg Index includes the Higg Materials Sustainability Index , the Higg Product Module , Higg Facility Environmental Module and Higg Brand & Retail Module .
Big-five accounting firm KPMG will lead the independent audit. KPMG has been an independent auditor for other companies including Accenture, Halliburton, CitiGroup and Coca-Cola. “While dates remain fluid as recruitment is finalized, we hope that SAC will receive the comprehensive report and recommendations in June 2023,” Lardeau said.
The process outlined includes the recruitment of 30 independent professionals . Once the recruitment of the panels is finalized, the review process will take approximately 11 weeks. Following review, the report is to be published in full.
