“This recognition validates Sphera’s leadership in delivering the reliable data and analytical depth and rigor that LCAs demand,” said Paul Marushka, CEO and president of Sphera. “Our software, supported by more than 20,000 regularly updated datasets, helps organizations pinpoint impacts, improve product design and meet growing expectations for credible sustainability reporting.”
The report states that “amid heightened pressure to reduce product environmental impacts, the use of lifecycle assessment (LCA) software has become increasingly important for sustainability, procurement, product and supply chain professionals. To meet emerging regulations such as the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) and capture business value, firms are required to comply with ecodesign rules, shift from estimated to primary supplier data, and provide evidence-based claims such as Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Conducting LCAs manually is often time- and resource-intensive, but automation through software helps streamline workflows and improve scalability.” - Verdantix, Smart Innovators: Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Software, 21 November 2025.
"As organizations work to limit product environmental impacts, sustainability, procurement and supply chain leaders must invest in the right lifecycle assessment tools to succeed,” said Jessie Wilson, Industry Analyst at Verdantix. “The demand for accurate, auditable and near real-time sustainability data has elevated reporting software from a supporting tool to a strategic requirement.”
