Sustainability reporting is more than meeting regulatory requirements — it is a crucial step toward greater transparency. Whether mandatory or voluntary, we support you in developing your sustainability report, for example in accordance with VSME, ESRS under the CSRD, or the EU Taxonomy.
In this focus area, we guide you through the process of creating a transparent sustainability report — from concept to content development. We work with established standards such as GRI, VSME, or ESRS.
Thanks to our expertise in sustainability consulting, we know what matters and help you produce a compelling report that resonates with your stakeholders.
Our services in sustainability reporting offer a complete package: from selecting suitable data management tools and preparing reports according to ESRS or VSME standards to advising on the EU Taxonomy and CBAM reporting obligations — for transparent and legally compliant disclosure.
Do you want to align your reporting with ESRS standards despite the “Omnibus” proposal? ESRS SMART offers you a simplified reporting option based on the reduced ESRS. This option takes into account the essential requirements and reduces the scope by around 50% compared to the ESRS sustainability report.
