Deloitte Wins 2022 ‘Digital Innovation of the Year’ for its Omnia ESG Module at the International Accounting Forum and Awards

Deloitte’s cutting-edge Omnia ESG Module allows our professionals to easily evaluate and benchmark client disclosures against leading global standards.

Key takeaways

  1. Deloitte wins the coveted innovation award for the third year in a row.
  2. Deloitte Omnia’s ESG Module is a comprehensive and structured framework, powered by artificial intelligence (AI), to help address multiple standards, dueling disclosure frameworks, and rising regulator expectations.
  3. The Deloitte Omnia ESG Module is part of a near term $1 billion investment in client-related services, data-driven research, and assets and capabilities focused on sustainability

NEW YORK, June 30, 2022 – Deloitte Omnia’s ESG Module, which uses advanced technology capabilities to effectively bring together four key phases of the environmental, social, governance (ESG) reporting and assurance process (materiality assessment, topic mapping, disclosure management, benchmarking), has been recognized as the “Digital Innovation of the Year” at the 2022 International Accounting Forum and Awards in London. This marks the third consecutive year Deloitte has garnered top honors by the International Accounting Bulletin for delivering innovative and disruptive technologies. It also marks the fifth time Deloitte has won the award overall.

Organizations are facing global challenges when it comes to meeting internal commitments and regulatory responsibilities around ESG requirements. Deloitte’s innovative platform helps professionals provide ESG reporting readiness, benchmarking, and assurance services with quality and agility at scale — from priorities, to frameworks, to disclosures. With a committed focus on people, the planet and prosperity, Deloitte’s Omnia ESG Module helps cut through the confusion of varying standards and regulations, allowing companies to focus on what matters to stakeholders, confidently report and mitigate risk.

Our materiality assessment dives deep to pull together critical information to pinpoint top ESG priorities for our client’s stakeholders before machine learning helps map a disclosures assessment — turning an onerous reconciliation into a data-driven decision-making process. Deloitte’s disclosures checklist organizes the various ESG standards for streamlined evaluations, and our proprietary disclosures database helps benchmark against peers, identify gaps, and create additional insights. Tasks typically handled by multiple individuals across numerous channels are streamlined, offering an improved process with high-quality reporting and assurance services.

We’re proud to be recognized by the International Accounting Bulletin, for our commitment to truly innovating how organizations manage their ESG goals and reporting and creating solutions that empower our clients to deliver trust and transparency to their stakeholders. We believe in a sustainable and transformative future powered by trust and transparency, where people and the planet prosper together.
