Sustainability Strategy & Management Services

Do you struggle to meet requests for sustainability / ESG information?

Can you explain your sustainability approach, what your material issues are and where you’re heading with goals for essentials like zero-carbon, sustainable supply chains and sustainable resources?

Sustainability issues can be complex and difficult to navigate, sometimes pulling you in different directions. The right sustainable strategy will help you develop focus, clarity, ambition and goals – a powerful narrative based on your risks and opportunities.

We help you to develop ambitious but realistic plans & actions which reduce risk, pursue efficiencies, and create value & purpose.

Products & services

Sustainability strategy consulting – we provide the pieces you need

Our innovative and practical approach will help you integrate sustainability with your everyday business priorities.

We specialise in working directly with people across/within your business. This builds their understanding and engages them in creating real-world solutions that work for you.

Good strategies have some fundamental elements. We can help you with one, several or all of them, according to your needs.

1. Analyse – risks and opportunities

What are the material (priority) sustainability/ESG issues for your organisation? Use our expertise to help you navigate complexity and cut through to the issues that matter to you. We’ll help you explore risk, dependencies and opportunities – and also how you’re doing compared to your peers or competitors.

2. Focus – on material issues for your business

Identifying priority sustainability/ESG issues is vital to your business’ value and future. That’s why ‘Materiality assessment’ is at the heart of global sustainability management and reporting best practice (from GRI, to Europe’s CSRD and ISSB standards). We’ll help you find the material issues for your stakeholders and business.

3. Vision – for sustainability

Where are you heading? A simple question that can be difficult to answer. A compelling vision for sustainability in your organisation should crystallise your ambition and engage staff and stakeholders. We have helped many organisations create a vision that guides their progress.

4. Strategy – to deliver your vision and goals

A good strategy provides the basis for effective business decisions. We have helped leading organisations to understand, prioritise and structure their strategies for sustainability so they can build resilience and meet strategic business objectives.

5. Plan – your actions to implement and deliver

Achieving your goals requires clear and meaningful plans and pathways for action. The complexity and long-term nature of sustainability can be daunting. We’ve helped business leaders develop structured action and route maps to plan and guide progress.

6. Reporting plans and progress

You need to tell your sustainability story in a way that can be heard by company leadership, investors, owners, customers and all stakeholders. We help you develop a powerful narrative for your sustainability/ESG/responsibility disclosure, reporting and communications.

Business context

Strategy development

Good strategy provides the basis for good business decisions. Strategies that support successful and innovative companies will be those which are responsive to fast-moving environmental and social issues. Mixing strategy theory and practice, we will help inspire, design and guide a strategy that makes sense for you, your business and your stakeholders.

Scenario and sustainability futures management

What do sustainability trends mean for the future of your business? We use scenarios to present a range of possible futures and stimulate your thinking about the future of your business.

Sustainability benchmarking and assessment

How do your sustainability activities compare with your peers and competitors, where are your existing strengths and what are the key opportunities for evolving your approach?
We have developed structured analysis tools, checklists and guidance processes to analyse and locate your practice relative to your peers and sustainability best practice. We can work with you to identify gaps and opportunities, develop appropriate responses to key challenges, and communicate your work to employees and stakeholders.

Value chain analysis

Effective sustainability increasingly requires management up and down the value chain, issues in one part of the chain can impact in others. We use conceptual models and approaches to assist you in analysing the environmental and social dimensions of your whole value chain, understanding impacts and boundary issues and driving innovation through your business relationships.

Sustainability management systems

There is a mass of sustainability information out there but as yet no global standards. We can help you cut through the information overload to focus on the right things in the right order with the right level of ambition. We have a scalable management system approach that builds from a number of key stages to allow you to effectively and simply identify, prioritise, manage and communicate your sustainability performance.
