Sustainability Quick Scan
Analyze your sustainability profile and discover your priorities

What can you expect from the Sustainability Quick Scan?

The Sustainability Quick Scan helps your company gain insight into your current position, priorities and opportunities.

This analysis provides insight into the extent to which sustainability today plays a strategic and economic role within your organization. It is structured around five domains that together form the foundation of sustainable entrepreneurship: CO2 impact, life cycle analysis, reporting, social impact and external certification.

Each of these themes touches on concrete business factors:

  • Costs and efficiency: by better understanding energy consumption, material flows and emissions, you can reduce costs and minimize risks.
  • Market access and customer expectations: increasingly, customers, banks and partners require transparent reporting on sustainability.
  • Innovation and competitiveness: companies that measure their environmental and social performance create new value faster and remain attractive to talent and investors.

The results of this scan are therefore not a final assessment, but a strategic starting point: they show where your company stands today, where the greatest economic opportunities lie, and which themes deserve priority.
