CBAM and Celonis in harmony -
How the CBAM Control App works
With our CBAM solution, you always retain full control and transparency: The CBAM Control App combines 3 components to create a comprehensive CBAM report.
Careful data collection forms the basis for the CBAM-compliant report and correct calculations.
Data collection with CORA
CORA is Ventum Consulting’s in-house software and is responsible for the data collection function.
With the help of CORA, you can request all important data from your suppliers via a survey.
To do this, your supplier receives an invitation by e-mail that is customized to your brand and can be sent from your mail server if desired.
In your invitation, your supplier receives access to the survey portal and extensive learning materials that support the data query and contribute to the completeness and correctness of the data.
The step-by-step guide is available as a video and text in English, Chinese, Spanish and French.
In the course of the surveys, only the necessary data is transmitted to your suppliers: your company name, the relevant customs tariff number and the delivery date specified by you.
In return, your supplier provides information on emissions, production processes and CO2 prices paid.
The data is automatically checked to verify that it is correct.
If this results in an error message, the data provided is rejected and usually corrected fully automatically in an exchange with the supplier by e-mail.
Another essential feature of the CBAM Control App are the so-called sub-surveys: These are particularly relevant if your direct supplier has purchased precursor materials from a third party or has manufactured the materials itself in another production facility.
Without sub-surveys, it is therefore not possible to submit a complete CBAM report.
Monitoring & control with Celonis
Using the CBAM Control App, you can view and access all functions for controlling and monitoring the CBAM process directly in Celonis.
In Celonis, your procurement data for CBAM-relevant orders is also extracted, supplemented with the necessary customs data and then sent to your suppliers either automatically or at the touch of a button as a CBAM survey.
The direct data view in Celonis allows you to view and access multiple data sources in your familiar environment.
Based on climaq data, procurement data and emissions data, you can analyze and evaluate the processes and make the best decisions for your company and the environment.
The CBAM Control App also automatically sends compliance with deadlines, deadline extensions and success reports to you and your suppliers.
This means you always have an overview of your CBAM reporting without having to make any additional effort or actively take care of it yourself.
The result: The CBAM Report
The result of the CBAM Control App is the quarterly CBAM report, which complies with all EU regulations.
Once all relevant data has been collected through the supplier survey, the data record has been automatically checked by CORA, validated and stored in Celonis, the foundation stone of the CBAM report has been laid.
In an intuitive process, you can generate the reports as XML with just a few clicks and remain compliant with legal requirements.
If required, you can export a CBAM XML report within the CBAM Control App in Celonis for each business unit or across the board.
You can then simply upload it to the EU portal for submission.

FAQs about the CBAM Control App for Celonis
CBAM is an EU initiative that was introduced as part of the European Green Deal. The aim is to create equality between EU-based companies and their international competitors by avoiding carbon leakage. This is achieved by reducing emissions from the production of imported goods and protecting European companies that invest in clean technologies.
CBAM concerns emission-intensive goods such as cement, electricity, fertilizers, iron & steel (including pipes and structural components), and aluminium imported from outside the EU. These goods were selected due to their high carbon footprint and their importance to the EU economy.
Almost the entire manufacturing and processing industry in the EU is affected. This affects companies that import CBAM-relevant goods, regardless of their size or the scope of their business activities. Particular attention is being paid to importers of fertilizers and electricity.
