Climate Change Strategy and Management
We define and implement the business climate strategy, integrating risks, opportunities, action plans, and the measurement and verification of carbon and water footprints to guide transformation and investment.
The Challenge for Organizations
Integrating climate change into business management isn’t just an environmental issue. It’s a prerequisite for operating with financial and strategic security.
Climate change creates impacts (an organization’s emissions) and risks (physical and transition) that affect operational continuity, financial planning, and the value chain.
The challenge is to make them an integral part of decision-making instead of treating them separately: building them into strategy, investments, and relationships with investors and regulators.
Operational continuity
Unmanaged physical and transition risks can put business operations at risk.
Efficiency and savings
Integrating climate change helps identify opportunities to improve efficiency in processes and resource use.
Access to financing
Strong climate management makes it easier to secure better terms on capital.
Competitive advantage
Acting early builds resilience and puts you ahead of those who react late.
Who It’s For
Organizations of any size, sector, and level of climate maturity, not just those with emissions-intensive operations.
The greater the exposure to climate change, the greater the opportunity to strengthen resilience and competitiveness by addressing it early. That’s why it pays to act ahead of time, rather than just reacting once regulatory or market requirements are already at your door.

HuellaChile Program Verifiers
Our experience as official verifiers backs every climate strategy we design.
As verifiers accredited by Chile’s Ministry of the Environment, we review greenhouse gas inventories and mitigation plans against criteria aligned with international standards. That experience allows us to offer organizations around the world sound climate management.
How We Support Your Organization
Everything we do is tailored to your organization’s own reality and challenges:
Impact assessment
We quantify carbon footprints, water footprints, and emissions inventories, and we verify inventories and emission reduction projects.
Climate vulnerability and risks
We identify how vulnerable different operations are to physical and transition risks.
Financial materiality
We analyze how climate change affects your business and estimate its financial materiality.
Mitigation and adaptation plans
We design mitigation and adaptation plans and support their implementation.
Strategy and roadmap
We design your business’s climate strategy and implementation roadmap, setting targets where needed.
Climate governance
We strengthen climate governance, supporting its integration into decision-making bodies.
IFRS S2 disclosure
We bring analysis and tools to support climate-related disclosure under IFRS S2, strengthening traceability and consistency across metrics, risks, strategy, and governance.
What This Service Delivers
Having robust information on your footprint and climate risks leads to better strategic and financial decisions, and guides investments, planning, and priorities.
Access to financing
Technical, traceable information that meets what banks, investors, and lenders increasingly require.
A credible emissions reduction pathway
Viable targets and mitigation plans, prioritized by cost-effectiveness and aligned with frameworks like SBTi.
Operational resilience
Early identification of physical and transition risks, so you can anticipate impacts on business continuity.
Technical credibility with third parties
Science-aligned targets, verifiable reduction actions, and footprints calculated and verified under internationally recognized methodologies, backing your reports and public commitments.
Stronger performance in external assessments
Steady improvement in sustainability indicators and ratings with customers, investors, and credit rating agencies.
Why ImplementaSur?
Technical rigor and verification
We measure and verify carbon footprints, water footprints, and emission reduction projects under standards such as the GHG Protocol, ISO 14064, and ISO 14046. We are verifiers for the HuellaChile system and the Certificado Azul.
From measurement to action
We support organizations from quantifying their footprint through designing and implementing their climate strategy, with roadmaps and governance that deliver results across multiple Latin American countries at once.
Client autonomy
We build internal capabilities alongside every project, so that measurement, risk management, and climate decision-making become embedded in your organization rather than dependent on us.
Tech Briefs
1. Calculation and verification are two different processes
Calculating a carbon or water inventory, or quantifying a reduction, is one thing. Independently verifying any of these is a separate capability, and it’s the one that underpins certifications like the HuellaChile seal and external audits.
2. Scope 3 is rarely optional
In sectors like consumer goods or logistics, most of the footprint sits in the value chain, not in a company’s own operations. Ignoring it leaves out what matters most to measure.
3. Setting an SBTi target requires evaluating different reduction scenarios
That means comparing measures by cost and feasibility, and choosing a trajectory the organization can sustain.
4. Physical and transition risks call for different tools
Physical risks require analysis of territorial and infrastructure exposure; transition risks require analysis of regulatory and market scenarios. Using the same method for both produces incomplete assessments.
5. A corporate group’s climate strategy isn’t just the sum of its parts
Each business unit may have a different level of maturity and exposure, so a credible corporate roadmap needs unit-specific roadmaps.
