In today's business environment, entities and their stakeholders are increasingly interested in understanding sustainability related risks, opportunities and measures. These expectations are being applied to organisations irrespective of their size, structure, sector or stage of their life cycle.

To remain relevant in an evolving business landscape, company boards and management will need to respond to changing stakeholder expectations and assume a higher degree of transparency and accountability required by changing regulatory and reporting requirements.

While some organisations have adopted sustainability practices as a part of their purpose and values, many are yet to formalise it into policy that can be effectively communicated to stakeholders and the broader community.

What is ESG?

While it has been operating in some form for decades, the highly evolving ESG space can mean different things to different people and organisations. Ultimately, it is the framework through which social and environmental impacts can be measured, and assists organisations to manage risks and identify opportunities on issues of sustainability.

How we help clients

Our ESG specialists help clients to develop and implement sustainability strategies that align with their short, medium and long-term goals and values.

In developing the sustainability and ESG strategy, specialists identify and measure the client’s impact on society and the environment in a manner that delivers value to the business and its stakeholders.

Some of the ways we assist organisations in improving their ESG credentials include:

  • ESG assessments and roadmaps, including baseline measurements, goal setting and ongoing monitoring
  • GHG emissions measurement, including ongoing monitoring, setting of targets, engaging suppliers and implementing decarbonisation strategies
  • Sustainability reporting, disclosure and associated assurance
  • ESG advisory services, including supply chain reviews, evaluating investments or partnerships and integration of ESG into financial reporting and planning
  • Corporate governance, risk management and board advisory services.

Emissions measurement

We understand the challenges and opportunities presented by climate-related risks. As the pathway to Net Zero draws near, our technology-led processes can help you quantify and track your Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, also known as carbon accounting.

Assessing your organisation’s environmental impact will serve as a crucial tool in understanding your carbon footprint, complying with mandatory or supply chain imposed disclosure requirements, identifying opportunities for emissions reduction, reducing greenwashing risks and contributing to global efforts to address climate change.

Measuring and managing your carbon emissions ensures that you are well-positioned to minimise environmental impact and enhance your sustainability credentials while directly contributing to a lower-carbon economy.

Our tools, that align with GHG Protocol, will help you identify and quantify all sources of emissions within your operations. Additionally, we provide education, resources and guidance to support your goals and share your sustainability story.

Our team will help you develop, monitor and evaluate effective sustainability initiatives and strategies, while addressing ESG issues to improve business practices and generate positive and tangible outcomes.

We operate in a world where no organisation operates in isolation. Contact the team to learn more on how your organisation can approach sustainability.
