Proposal for cooperation
Our Services
The overarching objective of our ESG support in the organisation is to implement effective and comprehensive solutions to the various challenges of the ESG, which can be achieved in a reasonable time and with a reasonable budget.
Proposal for cooperation
The proposed range can be completed in full, one task after another (or by an attestation of a given action,
if it was already done by another company) or only selected by you points that are needed for a given moment.
In order to prepare the report: dialogue with stakeholders, materiality studies and carbon footprint calculations.
A gap analysis is needed to prepare the strategy.
If these indirect actions have been carried out by another company, before the decision to cooperate with you on the report or strategy, we conduct a free mini-audit of the quality of those previous activities.
The validation of activities in the field of ESG performed by other companies is assessed individually depending on the scope of the activities.
It's done by certified auditors.
In the case of fixed activities in the location indicated by you, the cost of the delegation (river and accommodation) is added.

ESG challenges and proposed solutions
For detailed information, click the "CHANGE" or "RECORD".
Data collection and reporting
The collection of accurate and comprehensive data on the ESG may be difficult, especially in the context of complex supply chains.
Implementation of data collection tools, without major investments and optimization of reporting processes.
Full compliance
Compliance with rapidly changing ESG regulations and reporting standards can be complicated
Permanent subscription to consultant support, which keeps track of changes in regulations, and cooperates with other industry experts
Real integration with business strategy
Integrating the requirements of the ESG into the business strategy can be difficult, especially when there is resistance among management staff.
Shaping a culture of sustainable development, preliminary workshops with the Management Board and education of management staff to correlate business objectives with ESG objectives.
Involvement of stakeholders
The effective involvement of various stakeholders, including investors, customers, employees and the community, requires strategic communication and transparency.
Develop communication strategies and effective operational activities in this area, actively gaining opinions, and involve stakeholders in decision-making processes.
Greenwashing risk
In the event of errors in reporting arising not from bad will, but from the lack of sufficient competence of the person concerned with the ESG, there is a risk of being suspected of "greenwashing", i.e. deliberately falsifying the results of the ESG for marketing purposes.
Ensure a competent team of consultants, guaranteeing transparency in reporting, the use of certificates, accounting for the implementation of specific ESG activities in relation to those declared.
Talent Management
Attracting and maintaining talent for which ESG principles are relevant can be difficult if the organisation is not seen to be socially and ecologically responsible.
Promote involvement in sustainable practices of the employer's image, implement sustainable practices in the HR department, and offer training and educational tools for employees, customers and suppliers.
Complexity Supply Chain
Reporting, and later decarbonisation in supply chains, especially in sectors with extensive networks, can be difficult.
Support in cooperation with suppliers, setting clear expectations and implementing ESG criteria in purchasing processes.
Financial Performance Perception
The high cost of implementing ESG activities can negatively affect short-term financial performance
Propose rational valuations and efficient actions, minimise the involvement of ESG temporary teams, to tasks that bring added value to the team, while minimising the burden on other tasks that we take on. Risk limits related to the "burning" of the ESG budget and the presentation of solutions to increase the efficiency of organisations and their employees.
Technology and Innovation
The implementation of sustainable practices may require large investments in new technologies and innovation, which may be a financial and operational challenge.
Develop a tool implementation plan at a reasonable price, piloting tools to check the action in your organization.
Requirements for managers of ESG
The complexity of the ESG's subjects is so large that it is virtually impossible for one person to be able to address all the ESG's themes, as this requires a lot of time and constant monitoring of changes and good practice. On the other hand, with the services of various external consultants for different topics, much time is spent on coordination.
The support of consultants on the principle of educating organisations to handle the subject independently, and the comprehensive support of all ESG topics by one team of consultants causes a lack of blurry responsibility.
