Reporting to Assurance Readiness

We help you build sustainability reporting that can be defended, not just published. As disclosure regimes harden – CSRD, ISSB, TCFD, emerging climate and nature-focussed rules – organisations need ESG information that is consistent, explainable and ready for assurance. We work end-to-end, so the numbers, narrative and governance all line up. Our services include:
 

Double Materiality Assessments

We run structured double materiality assessments to surface the ESG impacts, risks and opportunities that genuinely matter for your business and stakeholders. The output is a clear, defensible view of what belongs in scope – and a practical bridge between disclosure, risk and strategy.

ESG Reporting Framework Alignment

Mapping and aligning your disclosures to relevant frameworks and standards – from GRI and SASB to TCFD, TNFD and ESRS. We develop reporting content that covers required metrics and narrative elements, ensuring compliance while telling a coherent story.

Data & Methodology Design

We help you work out how to produce the numbers: defining methodologies, data flows and ownership for key indicators – from scope 3 emissions and Taxonomy KPIs to workforce and value chain metrics. Controls, documentation and audit trails are built in from the start so the data is traceable, repeatable and ready to be tested.

Report Development & Narrative

We co-develop your sustainability or integrated reports – shaping the storyline, drafting or refining key sections, and aligning language across strategy, risk and financial disclosures. If needed, we also coordinate the reporting process, so internal writers, designers and approvers move in lockstep.

Assurance Readiness & Pre-Assurance

Before external assurance teams arrive, we perform a pre-assurance review against relevant standards to identify weak spots in data quality, evidence and governance. Then we stay with you to remediate – tightening documentation, clarifying responsibilities and closing control gaps – so you enter assurance with fewer surprises and a much stronger hand.

Why this matters?

Sustainability reporting is no longer a PR exercise; it is a regulated disclosure expected to withstand stakeholder scrutiny. We help you navigate this new era of reporting so you can communicate credibly and confidently. Clients who work with us in this module not only avoid compliance pitfalls but often discover that a streamlined reporting process yields better internal decision data and stakeholder trust.
