EPM for Sustainability - New Solution Available for Environmental, Social, and Governance Reporting and Planning
Oracle offers EPM for Sustainability - a best-practice solution configured on the Planning business process that helps you manage challenges in both the reporting and planning aspects of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) information.
EPM for Sustainability is a best practice configurable application and not a supported Planning module. Both "Modules" and "Solutions" provide best practices. However, "Modules" are fully supported capabilities in EPM Cloud. On the other hand, "Solutions" are intended to be configured applications that deliver rapid time to value. For assistance with EPM for Sustainability, contact Cloud Customer Connect.
