ESG compliance
Which rules apply depends on sector, size, legal form, product and the countries in which you operate. Companies are caught off guard by legislation they didn't know applied to them, and national gold-plating per country is consistently underestimated. Policy and practice diverge, evidence is scattered, obligations have no fixed owner. As a result, the board cannot demonstrate that it is in control, and that is a problem in itself.
Based on the obligations matrix, you determine which legislation applies, including national gold-plating per country.
Per obligation you see met, gap or risk, with owner, control and frequency in a control matrix.
Documents per obligation in a vault, with an audit-ready trail and a one-page board report.
The Compliance Check starts with an applicability scan, read-first on the obligations matrix: CSRD/VSME, CSDDD, EUDR, PPWR, CBAM, sector-specific rules and national gold-plating per country. Per obligation, the tool shows met, gap or risk, weighted by likelihood and impact, followed by a control matrix with owner, control, frequency and record-keeping. A remediation roadmap ranks the gaps by risk, aligned with your existing risk structure. Policy-versus-practice is assessed with a document checklist per obligation, stored in a vault with an audit-ready trail from report line to source to evidence. A horizon-scanner subscription flags what is changing, who it affects and what needs to happen. Per obligation, the tool also shows the opportunity side, stated factually: better supplier information, lower costs, a stronger story.
Read-first recorded as the basis for the scan.
Which obligations apply, including national gold-plating.
Per obligation, policy, practice and documents in the vault.
Ownership, risk ranking and a one-page board report, followed by the scanner subscription.
Every report ends in three routes. You choose; we deliver the analysis, not the engagement.
Do it yourself: register, control matrix and roadmap, with evidence vault and a quarterly board report.
Partly guided: a partner supports the policy-versus-practice review and the board training.
Outsourced: the full compliance process at the partner, with the check as the baseline measurement.
The next step
Every obligation costs hours: gathering, checking, reporting. The workload scan calculates that compliance burden in FTEs, and how much of it AI can take over, pre-filled with your list of obligations as task context.

Vraag maar welke verplichting op u van toepassing is, en waaraan u dat kunt aantonen.
