As companies invest in developing sustainable solutions, ISCC certification becomes fundamentally important to back claims. One of the key aspects for ISCC certification is mass balance bookkeeping, which requires companies to maintain documentation and handle material in a defined process. As the complexity and scale of operations grow, making this process more efficient and error-free becomes challenging.
To address the key challenges of ISCC Mass Balance bookkeeping, Carboledger, a leading provider of software solutions for carbon transparency and traceability, launched Smart Balance – a tool to digitise and automate work for ISCC Mass Balance bookkeeping. Managing multiple certifications and supplier declarations can quickly become overwhelming for sustainability teams, but with Smart Balance, automation streamlines data tracking, credit allocation, and audit preparation.

As businesses grow and acquire more ISCC certifications, managing mass balance becomes increasingly complex. Without the right tools, sustainability teams often rely on manual data entry and spreadsheets, which can lead to over-allocation of credits, tracking errors, and time-consuming audits. One key challenge raised was ensuring data accuracy across multiple suppliers and certifications, such as ISCC, USDA Biobased, and others. The more certifications a business manages, the harder it becomes to stay on top of certificate validity, supplier declarations, and audit readiness.
Smart Balance automates business processes, allowing businesses to save time and avoid costly errors. The digital tool offers real-time tracking of certifications, manages mass balance credits, and automates notifications for expiring certificates, giving sustainability teams better control over their data.
Here’s how Smart Balance can transform your mass balance bookkeeping process:
One of the standout features discussed in the webinar was how Smart Balance optimizes the auditing process. The “Auditor View” allows you to provide limited access to auditors, showing only the relevant data needed for their review. This drastically reduces back-and-forth communication, making audits faster and less stressful for both parties.
As highlighted in the skit during the webinar, businesses managing multiple ISCC certificates found significant benefits from Smart Balance. With the ability to track certificates, automate mass balance declarations, and prevent errors, businesses can scale without the fear of overwhelming manual processes. Smart Balance’s reservation feature even allows priority customers to be allocated credits, ensuring smooth operations and strategic commitments.
Smart Balance simplifies mass balance bookkeeping, saving time and reducing errors for ISCC-certified businesses. Its integration with key systems and ability to manage certificates across various suppliers ensures businesses remain audit-ready and efficient. For businesses looking to scale their sustainability efforts, automation through Smart Balance is a game-changer.
