Meridian Hotel Group Centralizes Carbon Reporting

The Challenge

Meridian Hotel Group operates more than 40 properties across three regions, each with its own approach to collecting utility data, supplier invoices, and emissions evidence. Before Ordinant Carbon Solutions, sustainability staff spent weeks each quarter reconciling spreadsheets that rarely matched.

Key pain points included:

• Inconsistent templates from property managers and regional offices
• Supplier documentation arriving late or in incompatible formats
• No single view of reporting status ahead of disclosure deadlines

The Approach

Meridian rolled out Ordinant Carbon Solutions in three phases:

1. Pilot at eight flagship properties to validate data sources and approval workflows
2. Regional expansion with standardized templates and training for general managers
3. Portfolio-wide deployment with central sustainability oversight and automated reminders

We went from chasing individual properties for numbers to reviewing a live dashboard every Monday. That alone changed how our team operates. — Renata Suh

The Results

Today, Meridian has a single reporting process across its entire portfolio. Property teams submit data through shared templates, regional leads review submissions before they reach corporate, and the sustainability office approves final figures from one system.

Reporting cycles that once took three weeks now close in under ten days, with far fewer corrections at the end of each quarter.
