ESG research measures the environmental, social, and governance performance of a business against frameworks that investors, regulators, and consumers now use to evaluate companies. Credible third-party data matters because self-reported ESG claims are increasingly scrutinised for greenwashing. Our research produces evidence you can defend under a sustainability audit or disclosure review.
A materiality assessment with stakeholder interviews runs 8–10 weeks. A quantitative impact measurement with a representative sample runs 12–16 weeks depending on geography. Green consumer research for a product launch can be scoped tighter, around 6–8 weeks. We give you a firm timeline once we've mapped the scope with you.
GRI, SASB, TCFD, CDP, and the new ISSB (IFRS S1/S2) standards. We also support South Africa-specific frameworks including the JSE Sustainability and Climate Disclosure Guidance and King IV governance requirements. For impact measurement we apply theory-of-change methodology aligned with the UN SDGs.
Yes. Many clients prefer annual or biannual ESG tracking studies that feed directly into integrated reports and investor presentations. Retainer engagements bring down per-wave costs and give us the continuity to notice trends you might miss project-to-project.
