A better way to manage risk<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Increase your organization\u2019s resilience to changing externalities with a complete view of the ESG risks you face, how those risks can evolve and what\u2019s required to minimize them. Our experts analyze key risk areas that are material to your business and align with your maturity across ESG performance areas. We have dedicated teams to support with nature advisory \u2013 helping you understand your impact and dependency on natural systems and how to enhance these for better supply chain sustainability, community engagement and site resilience.

Unlock new funding<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Demonstrating how your plans achieve sustainability objectives is often a key requirement for grant funding. In the United States we\u2019re helping clients access infrastructure enhancement and energy transition funding through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) government support frameworks. Beyond a traditional business case, we quantify the health benefits and savings that result from active travel and clean air policies. We also unpack potential disadvantages, such as social division, inequality, pollution and climate impact to better understand and communicate the advantage of alternatives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Competitive advantage<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Stay ahead of your competition by anticipating and preparing for environmental, social, regulatory and geopolitical change. We help businesses take the first step by benchmarking against peers to review their ESG maturity and plan actions to improve. We also support cities and nations to develop routes to competitive advantage. Whether it\u2019s furthering social justice, lowering healthcare costs thanks to active travel policies or restoring biodiversity \u2013 together we can create more desirable places for people to live.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Stakeholder confidence<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

We support you in responding to investor requests for quantifiable metrics and transparent monitoring and reporting data from your ESG programs and performance, increasing investor confidence in the future of your organization. Build trust, brand loyalty and recognition with your stakeholders including customers, citizens and employees who care deeply about social and environmental responsibility. Leveraging common ESG reporting frameworks to communicate your strategy and performance provides those stakeholders with a comparable understanding of your progress.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Strategic partnerships for a stronger value chain<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Embedding ESG standards into your procurement and partnership policies improves market alignment with other responsible, sustainable organizations. We see increasing collaboration among industries, especially around the impact of Scope 3 emissions and developing collaborative procurement approaches that reduce carbon in the supply chain and improve supplier confidence in driving science-based actions in their own organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
