Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Ingersoll Rand discloses a high-level commitment that its “engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy” and explicitly confirms that it has “a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” indicating an intention to align its advocacy with climate goals. However, beyond referencing participation in initiatives such as the “United Nations Global Compact” and partnerships with the “Department of Energy (DOE) – Better Plants Program,” the company only notes that it is “actively involved in benchmarking with other top tier ESG companies,” and we found no evidence of a formal internal governance framework that specifies how lobbying positions are reviewed, who is accountable for ensuring alignment, or how trade-association activities are monitored. The disclosure does not identify any board committee or named executive responsible for overseeing lobbying, nor does it describe processes for monitoring direct or indirect lobbying activities, engagement escalation, or corrective actions. As a result, while a Paris-aligned public commitment is present, the company does not disclose the mechanisms, oversight structures, or monitoring procedures that would demonstrate a more robust lobbying governance process.

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Ingersoll Rand discloses no substantive information about its climate-related lobbying. The only reference is participation in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Better Climate Challenge, a voluntary partnership rather than a lobbying activity. The company does not name any specific climate policy, legislation, or regulation it has tried to influence, provides no details on the methods or channels it uses to engage policymakers, and offers no explanation of the policy changes or outcomes it seeks. As a result, its disclosures give virtually no visibility into whether, how, or why it seeks to shape climate policy.	E
