The value our team added
We were able to leverage our deep understanding of the ESG domain and the emerging needs and expectations of global companies, to advice and implement on the ESG program of our client.
This has resulted in better responses to the requests from the global customers. Further, the project has started the process of institutionalizing the ESG agenda within the company whereby ESG requirements are increasingly being integrated with the core policies, processes and operations of the company.
Knowledge and awareness around ESG has also resultantly increased within the company personnel.
