The Challenge
From Intent to Measurable Action
No Unified Baseline
No unified ESG baseline across locations – policies existed, but not in a quantified form that could be tracked or compared.
Intent vs. Metrics
Difficulty translating high-level intent (“we care about sustainability”) into specific metrics and targets.
SME-Friendly Approach
Need for a practical, SME-friendly approach rather than heavy, enterprise-style ESG tooling.
Our Approach
How SIM Helped Consolidate Their Sustainability Report
IT Sector Assessment
Ran the SIM for IT Sector assessment across a representative office footprint, covering energy, HVAC, IT hardware, travel, waste and HR practices.
Evidence Collection
Collected evidence: electricity bills, equipment inventories, remote-work policies, DEI and well-being initiatives, vendor policies, etc.
ESG Report & Scorecard
Delivered a SIM ESG report + scorecard that clearly showed strengths (policies, culture, governance) and gaps (travel emissions, hardware lifecycle visibility).
5-Year Goal Setting
Helped leadership translate findings into a 5-year sustainability goals, including internal projects (office efficiency, digital waste reduction) and culture programmes.
SIM Dashboard Onboarding
Onboarded Codelattice onto the SIM dashboard for tracking progress over time – turning ESG from a one-time exercise into continuous improvement.
Key Outcomes
