ESG MANAGEMENT
A Path to Automated ESG Reporting
We have been elevating our clients’ sustainability reporting capabilities using a holistic approach. This assesses process, organizational and technical maturity to build a roadmap towards robust and integrated Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting.
We help you elevate your ESG reporting to gain value and efficiency
Companies have invested in ESG reporting tools, but most organizations still struggle to automate ESG reporting. Why? Because ESG data is generated across numerous functions and processes, resulting in:
- Inconsistent data
- Unclear data ownership
- A reliance on various technology solutions
Our approach has enabled clients to understand not only the technical implications of automating ESG reporting but also the organizational impact required to strengthen processes and governance for high-quality sustainability reporting and effective technology adoption.
Our approach to robust ESG reporting
We provide clarity and robust processes across 3 key aspects.
01
Process & governance
Establishing clear processes and governance frameworks (methodologies, standards and controls, and governance)
02
People & culture
Defining an effective ESG operating model with roles and accountabilities
03
Data & technology
Leveraging technology and unified data models to ensure consistency of reported metrics
Holistic optimization of your ESG maturity and capabilities
Your future-proof sustainability reporting requires a combination of 6 different capabilities. We have an approved framework that utilizes each one to full effect.
01
Information and data management capabilities
- How mature is your organization’s data strategy in integrating internal and external sustainability data?
- Does it ensure accuracy, consistency, and automation across ESG reporting processes?
02
Transactional process capabilities
- To what extent are sustain-ability-relevant data points embedded in your global transactional processes?
- How scalable and standardized are these processes across business units and regions?
03
Reporting, analytics and disclosure capabilities
- How effectively does your organization leverage reporting and analytics to translate ESG data into actionable insights?
- Is it supported by robust processes, controls, and traceability from data capture to disclosure?
04
People and culture capabilities
- How well are employees engaged, trained, and aligned around the organization’s sustainability framework, roles, and KPIs?
- Does it drive accountability and a shared ESG mindset?
05
Process and governance capabilities
- How consistently are ESG processes governed across the organization?
- Does your operating model enable prioritization, standardization, and collaboration across business and technology functions?
06
System and data architecture
- How effectively does your enterprise architecture framework support ESG goals through integrated data, application, and technology architectures?
