Communication & Reporting

Focused. Fact-based. Fascinating.

Sustainability reporting expands traditional financial reporting to include social, environmental and other economic aspects. In addition, sustainability reports inform about the management approaches of material topics and thus provide a holistic insight into the development of the company. By collecting and providing non-financial key figures, companies can effectively adapt to the new challenges and satisfy the changing information needs of their stakeholders.

Tasks and topics in the area of “Sustainability Reporting” are comprehensive. We take this into account in our associated offers and provide you with the following support:

  • "Start": Your entry point into the world of sustainability reporting
  • "Review & Analytics": We optimise and focus your existing reporting processes
  • "Digital & Data":  We digitise your reporting - from data collection to publication

Are you also looking for a stand-alone CSR software and interested in a modern solution for your sustainability management? Then you will find information on our digital solution for the sustainability sector under "ID-Report".

If you have tasks or questions for communicating with stakeholders as part of your sustainability communication, you can find an overview of our support options under "Stakeholder Management".

Internal communication on the topic of sustainability is also a comprehensive task in sustainability management - if you are looking for support with information and dialogue with employees, you will find our range of suitable services in the "Awareness" section.
