We help align your business strategy with the emerging ESG reporting requirements and expectations in your industry and region. We offer a comprehensive range of services to assist you in preparing and disclosing your ESG performance and impacts in a transparent and credible way.
Our four-step methodology can be applied at any point in along your ESG journey.
Assessment
Preparing for ESG reporting: We conduct a scoping exercise to determine the relevant reporting frameworks and standards for your company, such as GRI, GRESB, UNSDG CDP, SASB, TCFD, ISSB, or CSRD. We also assess your current ESG reporting readiness and identify any gaps or areas for improvement.
- Conducting a double materiality analysis: We help you identify and prioritize the most significant ESG topics for your business and stakeholders, based on the requirements of the chosen reporting frameworks and standards. We also help you define the boundaries and scope of your ESG report contents and exclude any non-material information to reduce reporting burden and enhance clarity.
- We conduct a comprehensive analysis of your current building’s environmental impact, energy consumption, carbon footprint, water usage, waste management, indoor air quality, and human experience for all occupants.
- We identify the areas where you can improve your performance, reduce your costs, and provide you with a customized action plan.
- We help you align your building with the EU Taxonomy for sustainable activities, a classification system that defines which economic activities are environmentally sustainable.

Reporting and Compliance
Preparing for ESG assurance: We help you ensure that your ESG reporting is reliable, accurate, and consistent, and meets the expectations of your external auditors and stakeholders. We also help you prepare for and facilitate the ESG assurance process, by conducting an assurance readiness assessment and providing guidance and support throughout the audit cycle.
