Booost Inc. (Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Hironori Aoi), which supports corporate SX (Sustainability Transformation)*3 by providing "Sustainability ERP*1" (No. 1 share for two consecutive years among major companies*) and advocating the "Sustainability 2026 Problem*2," announced on April 1, 2026, its participation as the world's first "Solution Provider Member" in the "Partnership for Carbon Transparency (PACT)," an international framework for calculating Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) and data exchange.
■ Background
PACT is an international initiative aimed at ensuring the reliability and interoperability of PCF data between companies, and it is attracting attention as a crucial foundation for promoting decarbonization across the entire supply chain.
Previously, our company was the first Japanese startup to be selected as a PACT Global Startup Partner and certified as a compatible solution provider in PACT's international technical specification, the "Pathfinder Network." Furthermore, based on these specifications, we have implemented the PACT Methodology and API in our Sustainability ERP "booost Sustainability" (booost PCF, booost Data EX-PF, booost CBAM).
As part of these efforts, our company has continuously participated in PACT's Technical Working Group (Technical WG).
And now, following the expansion of PACT's membership from traditionally large companies to all stakeholders, including startups, since February 1, 2026, our participation as the world's first PACT Solution Provider Member has been approved.
■ Future Outlook
In PACT's initiatives, solution providers are positioned not merely as data transmitters but as crucial entities supporting the exchange of emissions data between companies. Our company has already proposed data exchange technical specifications for embodied emissions information to PACT to comply with EU CBAM, and we will continue to contribute to the advancement of international cooperation on emissions and other environmental data in collaboration with PACT.
