Sustainability Management Consulting 

USE SUSTAINABILITY AS COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE!

In a world in which sustainability measures are both an obligation and an opportunity, companies are faced with the challenge of fulfilling regulatory requirements such as the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) and creating sustainable value at the same time. Managers have a responsibility to future-proof their company, minimise risks and exploit new potentials.

We consult companies on how to regard sustainability not just as a compliance issue, but to consider it as a strategic success factor!

With our sector-independent approach, we help companies of all sizes to implement the requirements of the CSRD efficiently and practically. We develop customised sustainability strategies, create measures, e.g. for CO2 reduction, and support their implementation in existing processes. Together, we shape the transformation of companies into a sustainable future – economically, ecologically and socially.

MAKING SUSTAINABILITY an integral part of the Company strategy

Climate protection and the achievement of climate targets are already an integral part of a successful business strategy for many companies – for others it still means a huge challenge.

Time is pressing: due to upcoming legislation, even small or medium-sized companies that still have a lot of catching up to do in this area now urgently need to look more closely at aspects of sustainability. On 01.01.2023, the Supply Chain Act will come into force in Germany and on 01.01.2024, the new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) of the EU. The latter affects approximately 50,000 companies in the EU and applies retroactively for the reporting year 2023. Even if one’s own company is not yet directly affected by this new directive, it may be required by its customers to report transparency in the supply chain and to provide proof of its sustainability activities.

Our industry-independent consulting approach is aimed at companies of all sizes. We are compliant with the reporting standards of the GHG Protocol, GRI, UN Global Compact, GLEC and others. We develop the right solution for our clients, whether it is a comprehensive sustainability strategy or individual first steps that a company would like to implement on the way to climate neutrality, e.g. getting transparency about CO2 emissions, develop reduction measures or work on compensation options. In addition, we offer support in evaluating science-based targets (SBT) and other sustainability programs.

SUSTAINABILITY MANAGEMENT BASED ON A STANDARDIZED PROCESS

As independent consultants, we follow a standardised procedure to create comparability and transparency of data and information. We guarantee a reliable, software-based calculation of emissions from transports and shipments, the corporate carbon footprint (CCF) in Scopes 1-3, as well as the calculation and standard-compliant assessment of ESG data for CSRD and EU-Taxonomy reporting. Based on the various sustainability indicators, we define targets and draw up the most suitable sustainability strategy for your company.

At the end of the process, we offer assistance to companies on how to communicate their commitment to sustainability in a credible and comprehensible way. Both internally as employee motivation and externally when presenting results and actions to stakeholders, customers and consumers.
