Insights Hub now supports FEM Production Volume Allocation
Now, when you allocate production volume of a facility to your organization in FEM Modules, you’ll be able to see more accurate and actionable insights in Insights Hub.
Carbon Intensity, Total Emissions, Total Water, Total Waste, and more metrics will now be proportional to your share of production in that facility and across your supply chain. This provides more accurate metrics for reporting and lets you hone in on priority facilities or regions for engagement.
Along with updating metrics, this new update brings:
A new filter for % allocated - view only those facilities which you have a high share of production, low share of production, or in-between. This can help you prioritize engagement and action.
New filters for production volume (kg & pc-pair) - view facilities with high or low production volume, honing in on your most important facilities for engagement.
New hotspot tables that show facility-by-facility breakdown of energy source mix, water source mix, and more. For every distribution chart, now there is a corresponding table for comparing across facilities and for downloads for offline analysis.
New hotspot tables that show facility-by-facility breakdown of Initiatives. For each Initiative category, there is now a corresponding table with the defining metric for that initiative. Compare across facilities and download in bulk - fast!

Facility Data Manager (FDM)

Product & Platform Enhancements
Expanded FEM comparison data via API
Additional data points are now available through the API to support deeper comparisons between FEM 2023 and prior FEM versions.
Module share requests now in Collaboration Suite (Available February 6)
View, review, and take action on module share requests directly within the Collaboration Suite. No more hopping back to the modules table—everything lives in your supplier network where it belongs.
Bulk tagging for supplier accounts via CSV (Available February 6)
Add tags to existing supplier accounts using CSV uploads. Faster updates when your tagging data already lives in offline lists.
Clearer KPI titles in Insights Hub
KPI names no longer include the word “Average” (for example, “Average FEM EMS Score” is now “FEM EMS Score”). This clarifies that Insights Hub displays facility-level KPIs. Calculations remain unchanged.
