HLB to assure integrity of data on Tuu’s sustainability tracking dashboard for schools

HLB will provide on-demand data and proof verification services for schools and school groups, as well as random data spot checks to ensure that the schools using Tuu can take an audit-level approach to data analysis during the course of their subscriptions.

“It’s important we can have absolute confidence in the integrity of the data as Tuu’s user base of schools continues to grow,” said Terry Blackburn, Tuu’s founder.

“We believe that accurate, transparent and validated data is the key to achieving ESG goals and HLB will help us achieve it."

“With Tuu and HLB’s audit service, school groups can ensure that every school in their portfolio is correctly reporting data to meet internal ESG compliance targets and achieving cost savings through carbon reductions.”

HLB’s Thailand office will coordinate the group’s international services for Tuu, due in part to its experience of offering supervisory and assurance services to the real estate industry for the Asia Property Awards, the region’s largest real estate event.

“I am delighted that Tuu has chosen HLB as its official assurance partner,” said Paul Ashburn, HLB Thailand’s managing partner.

”We appreciate the opportunity to work with a business that has a strong sense of purpose to shape a better world for the future and whose values are ethically aligned to our own. Education is key to transforming attitudes and practices and inspiring future generations to develop sustainable lifestyles and practices.”
