How Teradyne revolutionised their sustainability reporting with EcoOnline

The global leader in automatic test equipment and industrial automation transformed their reporting process with unified, audit-ready data management

Teradyne is a global leader in automatic test equipment and industrial automation, serving critical industries such as semiconductors, wireless, storage, and complex electronics. With a legacy of innovation and over 6,000 employees worldwide, Teradyne plays a critical role in ensuring the quality and performance of the world’s most advanced technologies.

At Teradyne, sustainability isn’t new; it’s foundational. It’s something that’s been deeply embedded into their operations. The brand’s environmental journey began over 30 years ago with the launch of a dedicated Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) program. Their commitment spans product design, supplier engagement, and transparent reporting, aligning with frameworks like CDP, TCFD, and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

Teradyne found that their manual, time-consuming processes and dispersed data couldn’t keep up with rapidly evolving reporting expectations and obligations. They decided to partner with EcoOnline to streamline their sustainability data and reporting.

The challenge

Managing and reporting their Scope 1 and 2 emissions data became more difficult for Teradyne as sustainability reporting requirements and data requests increased, particularly for CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) submissions. Teradyne’s current procedures, which were based on decentralised Excel sheets, were turning into a major obstacle. Emission factors needed to be manually updated on a regular basis, calculations were laborious and risk errors, and data had to be manually gathered and stored from multiple departments. Maintaining consistent and audit-ready data became nearly impossible as customer requests and sustainability requirements increased. It was obvious that something had to change.

The solution

To better support their long-term sustainability goals, Teradyne sought a centralised, scalable, and regulation-aligned platform. They chose the cloud-based EcoOnline software, powered by Ecometrica, to streamline and standardise sustainability data management across the organisation. With CDP-aligned reporting tools and automatic emission factor calculations, Teradyne now manages all key sustainability data — including waste, water, emissions, and energy — in a single, user-friendly system. This eliminates version-control challenges and enables consistent, accurate reporting. EcoOnline’s extensive database of emission factors and assumptions ensures Teradyne always has access to up-to-date, reliable data. Global collaboration is now seamless, and Teradyne can quickly retrieve historical data and respond with confidence.

The impact

Teradyne’s sustainability reporting procedures have improved dramatically since implementing EcoOnline in 2015. One of the greatest benefits is the substantial time savings. CDP reporting, which once took months, now requires much less manual effort, freeing up employees to focus on other key tasks. Emissions data is more accurate and consistent thanks to EcoOnline’s automated calculations, and customer data requests are answered quickly thanks to instant access to historical information with a comprehensive audit trail. Regional teams now input data directly, improving global collaboration and reducing the burden on the central sustainability team. EcoOnline empowers sustainability teams to scale their impact with audit-ready, transparent data and a comprehensive solution that grows with them, supporting Taradyne’s long-term sustainability goals.

“Since using EcoOnline, sustainability reporting is no longer something that takes months to complete. I can focus on tasks requiring my expertise and not have to think about spreadsheet errors or missing data. EcoOnline has been a complete game-changer and it’s given our team confidence that we’ll meet and exceed our reporting requirements.”

The story

Before EcoOnline, sustainability reporting at Teradyne relied heavily on scattered spreadsheets that were siloed across various departments. It was a headache-inducing system that was labor intensive and led to increased risk for duplicate or lost information. Managing their scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and reporting to the CDP was a months-long effort. Employees were spending too much time and effort on manual tasks to meet reporting requirements.

Charlie LaRussa, part of Teradyne’s real estate and sustainability team, is responsible for managing the company’s sustainability data and reporting obligations across its global operations. Charlie is delighted that EcoOnline is built to address the challenges of evolving global reporting requirements. His focus is now maximising the software’s impact and utilising it to support Teradyne’s long term sustainability goals.

“We were manually updating emission factors and consolidating spreadsheets from each of our different sites,” says Charlie, “It sometimes took months to compile everything and even then there was always a risk of duplicate data or missed information. We needed a user-friendly solution that could be naturally integrated across our teams and rolled out immediately.”

With EcoOnline, Teradyne now enjoys a single, centralised system that provides reliable, financial-grade data. Team members across the globe can log their facility data directly into the software. Emission factors stay current without manual updates. And Charlie can generate audit-ready, CDP-aligned data with the confidence that they’re 100% accurate and 100% compliant.
