- Scope 3 emissions (primarily steel and transportation) make up >87% of total GHG emissions
- Need to improve data collection for more precise Scope 3 and steel emission calculations
- Need to address non-compliance in vendor qualification process
- Need to adapt and implement quality and safety measures at new Brazil location
