Our Vision

Suppliers, subcontractors and clients have an important impact on your company. Although the sustainable policy you implement in your organisation is spread by your employees, the loop will only be closed if the same effort is made along your whole value chain. It is important to examine the entire chain of emissions and to involve your suppliers, subcontractors, clients and all other stakeholders in your improvement plan.

Our Commitment

Our commitment to People and the Planet.

At RSM Sustainability we believe that we can make a difference by keeping control over, and by reducing your environmental and societal impact. 
We believe that every sustainable step brings us closer to a carbon-neutral environment and that businesses play a crucial role in achieving this goal.
We are convinced that sustainability reports based on quantitative and qualitative information are key and will contribute to our common sustainability ambition.
This is to drive our sustainability impact in line with what is needed to protect and preserve the planet for future generations.
 

Our Focus

We can help you get started on your sustainability journey by performing a "360°" analysis. Based on the results, we can support you to prioritise and address your company's sustainability-related needs and goals: reducing your carbon footprint and related energy use, building a balanced sustainability report, aligning your company's governance to ensure transparency to all stakeholders, ...

All starts with a materiality assessment…

Companies will need to remodel to new markets and adapt their business model to thrive within the green economy of tomorrow.
Through innovation, respect for People and the Planet and with Purpose your company will prosper in new markets, with new talent, acting on the new normal within a Profitable environment. 
 

Climate and objectives

The Global climate objectives are currently led by Europe, with the following targets:

 

And other countries are also placing these topics high on their agenda:
•    China is planning to be Carbon Neutral in 2060.
•    Canada aims to have a 40% reduction by 2030 compared to 2005 and reach net zero by 2050.
•    USA will go for a 50%-52% reduction by 2030 compared to 2005 and reach net zero by 2050.
•    Japan will have a target of 46% reduction by 2030 compared to 2013 and achieve net zero by 2050.

GHG protocol stipulates a methodology to classify the emissions, that can be translated into objective emissions on a scientific basis. The ‘general’ trend is to adopt a net zero methodology in a 2050 scenario.

Our way of working

We like a pragmatic approach and do this in a step-by-step process. We adapt in line with the resources available.
But above all, we want you as a client to be unburdened; and we want to fully understand you. That is The Power Of Being Understood.
 

We start by listening to you and your employees to define your needs. Together, we look for improvement processes and translate them into uniquely defined parameters. These tailor-made solutions, together with the useful dashboards, are the source of the continuous improvement plan that creates a new internal awareness.

It is our responsibility to gain a comprehensive insight into our business' impact on the planet and to help preserve it for present and future generations. To guarantee this objective and encourage everyone to contribute fully to this cause, it is crucial to include climate objectives into your corporate strategy and values, ensuring that CO2 emissions and biodiversity preservation are kept high on the agenda. We will guide you on your journey to decrease your environmental impact.

It goes without saying that customers’ expectations and climate objectives are linked. We work with you to define the objectives you want to achieve. And we'll implement them, with us at the oars and you at the stern. You keep your hand on the tiller, while you concentrate on your core business.
 

More than ever before, it is important to offer employees a challenging but pleasant, healthy and comfortable workplace. People of all generations are looking to work for sustainable companies, where each co-worker is respected in every possible way. As a result, you as a company will have to develop a working environment that is best suited to retain and attract the profiles best suitable for your organisation. We work with you to make this happen.

The attention that you, as a company, pay to climate control will certainly be noticed and will enable you to attract new markets and new customers. What's more, shareholders and financial institutions have already pulled out the green card and are assessing sustainable companies vs all companies regarding their sustainability performance more carefully. They will certainly appreciate your sustainable strategy and new opportunities will open up for you, we make it visible for you.

Purpose sets organisation strategy and guides decision-making to boost impact. Fully integrating it into your company's overall strategy improves the dynamic in your organisation, as well as your profitability and success. Blending business and societal goals towards a better collective future will differentiate yourself in a positive way.

Having that clarity in your vision shared by your team is something we can help on. 

Today, strong sustainability policy and performance is not a nice-to-have but an absolute must-have. The different ESG-risks and opportunities will need to be taken into account in the risk management system and assessed giving insight into the potential financial risk an organisation has (future evolution of turnover, cash flow, asset value, …). For example:  

Suppliers, subcontractors and clients have an important impact on your company A well-implemented sustainability policy is carried by your employees and colleagues, but the loop will only be closed if the same effort is made in your total value chain. It is important to examine the entire chain of emissions and to involve your suppliers, your subcontractors, your clients and all other stakeholders in your improvement plan.
