Sustainability & ESG

Implementing sustainable practices that drive corporate responsibility and positive environmental impact. We help businesses align with ESG goals to create long-term value and social change.

At Skrifts KPO, we believe that embracing sustainability is no longer a choice—it’s foundational to building resilient organizations and unlocking long-term value. Our Sustainability & ESG consulting services are designed to be your strategic partner in this critical journey, guiding your business in aligning its operations with global ESG goals, industry best practices, and the evolving expectations of stakeholders.

In 2025, the landscape for corporate responsibility is rapidly shifting. Fueled by stringent new regulations, investor demand for transparent, non-financial data, and consumer preference for ethical brands, ESG has moved from a niche concern to a core driver of corporate strategy. By integrating robust Environmental, Social, and Governance principles into your core business strategy, we help you enhance transparency, manage risks, improve operational efficiency, and contribute positively to society and the environment.

We understand that a truly successful ESG strategy must create value across the triple bottom line: people, planet, and profit. Our goal is to transform your ESG commitments into a competitive advantage.

Industry-Leading Frameworks: GRI and Beyond

We base our consulting approach on globally recognized ESG and sustainability frameworks to ensure your reporting and strategy meet the highest standards and regulatory requirements. We help you navigate this complex ecosystem, often integrating multiple standards to produce comprehensive, compliant, and stakeholder-focused sustainability disclosures.

Global Reporting Initiative (GRI): The GRI Standards remain the most widely adopted global framework for sustainability reporting. Their emphasis is on impact materiality, which focuses on how your organization affects the environment, society, and the economy. The GRI framework is modular and highly flexible, comprising:

  • Universal Standards: Applicable to all organizations, outlining general requirements for reporting.

  • Sector Standards: Tailored to specific industries to ensure a consistent and relevant approach.

  • Topic Standards: Addressing specific ESG issues such as energy, water, emissions, labor practices, and human rights.

Utilizing GRI enables transparent, comparable, and credible sustainability disclosures that resonate with a broad spectrum of stakeholders, from communities and NGOs to regulators and investors.

Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD): The European Union’s CSRD imposes mandatory ESG reporting obligations with detailed European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). A key concept under CSRD is double materiality—you must report not only on how sustainability issues affect your business (financial materiality) but also on how your business impacts society and the environment (impact materiality). This dual perspective is a game-changer and a new global benchmark.

Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB): SASB focuses on financial materiality for investors and public markets. It provides industry-specific disclosure guidelines to report financially relevant ESG factors with precision. While GRI provides a broad picture of a company’s impact, SASB offers the granular, financially relevant data that investors need for decision-making.

Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD): TCFD offers a global framework for reporting climate-related information to help organizations assess and report on climate risks and opportunities. Its four core pillars—Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics & Targets—are now a global standard for understanding how climate change can affect financial performance.

International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB): ISSB is working to create a global baseline for ESG financial reporting, harmonizing standards like SASB and TCFD to create consistent, decision-useful information for investors. Its aim is to provide a single, globally accepted standard for sustainability reporting that aligns with financial statements.

Our Sustainability & ESG Services

We offer a full spectrum of services designed to build and enhance your ESG capabilities at every stage of the journey.

1. ESG Strategy Development

We don’t just help you report; we help you strategize. Our team crafts a comprehensive roadmap that aligns your sustainability goals with your core business strategy, regulatory mandates, and stakeholder needs. This process begins with a thorough gap analysis and benchmarking against industry peers to identify opportunities for value creation. We then assist you in setting specific, measurable, and time-bound goals that are both ambitious and achievable.

2. Materiality Assessment

The foundation of any credible ESG strategy is a robust materiality assessment. We guide you through a systematic process of stakeholder engagement and topic prioritization, helping you identify and focus on the ESG issues most significant to your organization and your stakeholders. This ensures your efforts are directed where they matter most, maximizing both impact and ROI.

3. ESG Reporting Preparation & Disclosure

With an ever-expanding list of reporting requirements, preparing a comprehensive and accurate sustainability report can be a daunting task. We assist with all aspects of disclosures aligned to GRI, CSRD, SASB, TCFD, and other relevant frameworks. This includes developing a clear data collection process, implementing internal controls for data validation, and drafting a compelling and transparent report that effectively communicates your progress and commitments.

4. Climate Risk Analysis & Resilience

Climate change is a significant financial risk. We conduct comprehensive scenario analyses and risk assessments to help you understand your business’s exposure to climate-related risks and opportunities. Whether it’s physical risks (e.g., extreme weather) or transition risks (e.g., policy changes, market shifts), we provide the insights needed to inform your long-term resilience strategies and prepare for a low-carbon future.

5. ESG Data Management & Digital Solutions

Accurate reporting depends on accurate data. We help you implement state-of-the-art digital platforms for ESG data collection, validation, and reporting. These solutions automate data gathering from various sources, reduce human error, and provide a single source of truth for all your ESG metrics, streamlining the entire process and ensuring data integrity.

6. Supply Chain Sustainability

Your ESG footprint extends throughout your value chain. We guide you in developing and implementing sustainable sourcing practices, integrating circular economy principles, and engaging with suppliers to ensure their practices align with your own. This helps mitigate reputational and operational risks while building a more resilient and responsible supply network.

7. Social Impact & Governance Programs

Beyond environmental metrics, we assist with the “S” and “G” of ESG. Our services include developing robust DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives, creating effective community engagement strategies, and establishing strong governance structures, including human rights policies and transparent board oversight.

8. Training & Change Management

A successful ESG transformation is a collective effort. We offer tailored training programs to upskill your internal teams on new systems, regulatory changes, and best practices.
