We'll help you discover what matters most to your stakeholders
It can feel like an increasingly complex landscape, but we’re here to simplify it for you.
Double Materiality Assessments (DMAs) are the cornerstone of reporting under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which in turn relies on the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) for its detailed requirements. You might want to conduct a DMA in isolation, but these days it’s most likely you’ll be doing it under the CSRD – and we can support you in every aspect of that.
Our three-step Double Materiality process is designed to give you deep, actionable insights ↓
First, we'll dive deep into the landscape around you. We conduct extensive research, scanning your competitors, analysing your sector, and pinpointing the latest sustainability trends. We'll craft a tailored list of crucial topics that resonate with your business and, more importantly, with your stakeholders. This becomes our roadmap for engagement.
Whether it's your dedicated staff, valued partners, or loyal customers, we'll gather their perspectives, fine-tuning for different regions or countries if needed. Your stakeholders will then rank the importance of each topic, considering both its potential financial impact on your business and its broader environmental and social implications. You’ll come out of this with a powerful snapshot of what matters most.
While numbers tell one story, true understanding lies in the details. That's why we recommend qualitative data collection through focus groups and interviews, led by our experienced and friendly team. This is where the magic happens – you'll gain those rich, in-depth insights, uncover subtle nuances, and hear the real stories behind the data.

Put simply, a double materiality assessment is the most effective way to understand what matters most to your stakeholders
It's "double" because it considers both how your company affects the world, and how the world affects your company. If a sustainability issue is significant from either of these perspectives (or both!), then it's considered "material", and you should focus on it.

We'll be honest - we don’t just want to do your double materiality assessment.
