Comparatively, in 2022, SAIC's total emissions were approximately 9,683,030 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 725,760 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 8,957,270 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 849,520 kg CO2e in 2021 and a decrease in Scope 2 emissions from 9,583,200 kg CO2e in the same year. Despite these figures, SAIC has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments in line with industry standards. SAIC's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from its own operations. The company continues to operate within the context of increasing global climate awareness and the necessity for corporate responsibility in emissions management.
