Consultancy group KPMG has suggested integrating the Higg Material Sustainability Index (MSI) with the Higg Product Module (PM) and improving data quality. 

Ahead of the review, the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) asked KPMG to review the Higg Index suite of tools used in the textiles and fashion industry. The review identified the need to integrate the Higg Material Sustainability Index (MSI) with the Higg Product Module (PM) and improve the quality of data. The panel of experts also suggested implementing warnings for users of the platform to avoid inappropriate comparisons and providing better documentation for the goal and scope definition of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study.
