Conception of an ESG Management System for true impact

During the project, we collaborated with the client to develop a Sustainability Operating Model, including organizational anchoring and implementation of a central control element for sustainability management in the company. To ensure the establishment of the new system and its following measures in all departments we developed company-specific guidelines. Moreover, we aimed at creating a holistic steering model and reporting system as part of corporate guidelines as well as a detailed handbook. As part of the implementation, we set ourselves the goal  to  design a holistic, cross-departmental IT target architecture, considering relevant system and process requirements.

We impacted and delivered values to the client on different levels: First and foremost by enabling the organization to implement and keep up their ESG Management System. Deloitte also established transparency about necessary capabilities, measures and creating a clear and concise allocation of responsibilities. Together with our client we defined a catalog of prioritized ESG-related KPIs including data processes for relevant KPIs. Furthermore, we created a new training concept for the specific capabilities that employees need to fulfil for the system requirements. Deloitte implemented a new IT system to steer and report ESG KPIs, and therefore, ESG-related targets and activities. Finally, we created a timeline for a recurring cycle of target setting, communication activities and revision of KPIs that can help the client's ESG Management System running and up to date.
