The completion of the Bilan Carbone® approach enables the organisation to obtain:

* Step 6.1: a [results presentation](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/6-summary-and-reporting/6.1-reporting-of-the-bilan-carbone-r) the deliverables that constitute the Bilan Carbone® approach, whether intended for internal or external use.
* Step 6.2: a [compatibility](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/6-summary-and-reporting/6.2-compatibility-of-the-approach-with-other-frameworks) of Bilan Carbone® deliverables with other approaches
* Step 6.3: a projection on the [continuation of its](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/6-summary-and-reporting/6.3-renewal-and-continuous-improvement) transition journey, in terms of renewal and continuous improvement

## Glossary related to the Results presentation

All terms related to the results presentation steps are explained in the [glossary](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/glossary). They are reminded below:&#x20;

* Results presentation: process of finalising the approach, including preparation of deliverables, their presentation and their validation. The results presentation is also a phase of [Stakeholder engagement](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/3-stakeholder-engagement/3-introduction-to-stakeholder-engagement#glossaire-relatif-aux-etapes-de-mobilisation).
* Documentation: process similar to the results presentation intended for internal use only. It aims at the continuous improvement of carbon accounting within the organisation. Documentation is useful for future handovers and renewals.
* Deliverables: set of documents, papers and information obtained at each step of the approach, compiled for the Results presentation.
* Compatibility: here the ability of the Bilan Carbone® to be used to meet other frameworks. The notion of “compatible with” does not guarantee reciprocity.
* Framework: here refers to other methods, standards and regulations for carbon accounting or low-carbon transition approaches.

## Governance related to the Results presentation

The governance of the accounting step is part of the [overall governance](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/1-framework-for-the-approach/1.2-define-the-management-of-the-bilan-carbone-r-approach) of the Bilan Carbone® approach presented previously.&#x20;

The preparation of the deliverables is the responsibility of the coordinator of the Bilan Carbone®, supported by the project team.

The validation of the deliverables depends on the maturity level of the organisation (either by the person in charge of coordination, or by management).

## Stakeholder engagement related to the Results presentation

A Stakeholder engagement action takes place during step 6. It aims at empowerment, results presentation and communication around the results and the [finalisation of the approach](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/3-stakeholder-engagement/3.1-schedule-the-stakeholder-engagement-phases/3.1.5-as-a-summary-of-the-approach)It is part of the scheduling of the Stakeholder engagement phases presented previously.
