WE INCREASE YOUR COMPANY'S MATURITY

Understand our proven framework towards strategic sustainability integration. The essensus approach helps you understand where you are, where you want to go, and how to make the changes needed to get there.

1. DIAGNOSIS

Current maturity profile: where are we?

A deep and thorough diagnosis will provide your company with clear strengths and improvements opportunities, stating a common language.

2. VISION

Strategic ambition level: where do we want to go?

Your company's internal and external drivers will lead us to build a shared and strategic vision for improving its sustainability maturity, together.

3. ROADMAP

Gap analysis and action plan: how to actually get there?

A comprehensive and tailor-made set of improvement projects is designed for your company to reach its vision, with our close implementation support.

4. IMPLEMENTATION

Change management: how to drive real action?

A close and collaborative support will guide your end-to-end implementation with strong technical and knowledge background.

WHY SHOULD YOUR COMPANY ENGAGE?

Companies are increasingly recognizing the opportunities and the need for sustainability in their business. But it can be hard to understand where to start, or how to scale-up. Sound familiar? Your are not alone. Here is how we can help.

Sustainability efforts feel fragmented?

We can help you conduct maturity assessments and co-develop integration roadmaps. You will achieve a shared view of your current position and clear next steps across departments.

Pilots and green initiatives never scale across the portfolio?

We customise our approach based on your product and process context. With repeatable methods, your company can move from one-off to widespread change.

Drowning in reporting and compliance burdens?

With structured and traceable processes, you get fewer data gaps, more actionable insight, and better reporting with less effort. With sustainability integration into business practices, you future-proof your business in face of a constantly changing world.

Cross-functional teams don’t speak the same language?

Our maturity approach ensures a shared vocabulary, decision logic, and collaboration structures across departments. Clarify governance, decision rights, and capability gaps.

WHY IT WORKS

We focus on capability building, not dependency. That means structured methods, collaborative work, and tools your team can reuse, allowing you to spend time and resources on what really matters.
