Construction of an enterprise-level global supply chain database

Data tracing global supply chains, commonly captured in input-output models, is a foundational resource across economic, regulatory, investment, defense, and environmental applications. Such models provide insight into interdependency and environmental burden-shifting, forming part of the empirical basis for policies such as Scope 3 embodied emissions targets, supply chain transparency, life cycle assessments, and product declarations. Current approaches, based on national statistics, remain constrained by sector-level resolution, limiting their precision and utility in certain applications. Here, we document the construction of an enterprise-level multi-regional input-output (EMRIO) table. This database merges official national input-output tables with publicly available firm-level production and transaction data, creating a globally consistent account of purchases and sales across 9,466 companies, 86,305 subsegments, and 121 countries. The finer resolution allows supply chain transactions to be represented in greater detail, providing an additional resource for analyses and policy tools requiring more disaggregated supply chain information.
