ESG Analysis & Reporting
The foundation: In ESG today, companies are accountable for their entire value chain – choice of suppliers, distributors and even customers – not just ‘own operations’.
Thorough initial mapping and analysis of your value chain, business model and ESG starting point is therefore crucial to ensure that you have a solid foundation for your overall ESG process and efforts.

The value chain analysis is therefore a crucial foundation…
- The value chain analysis creates predictability and clarity through the entire ESG process – especially in the Double Materiality Analysis (phase 2) – which can then be concentrated.
With the initial ESG mapping of your company and value chain, we can significantly optimise and reduce the time spent in the following phases. - The value chain analysis provides pre-insight into your ESG Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs).
This allows you to see the early opportunities and risks that ESG presents to your business and initiate a dialogue about your ESG potential while meeting the new sustainability reporting requirements.
ESG Analysis & Reporting
The DMA is key to the entire ESG project
Building on insights from the initial Value Chain Analysis, we implement our auditor-approved Double Materiality Analysis methodology, pre-validated in collaboration with your auditor, to identify your company’s societal impacts and financial risks and opportunities across the entire value chain.
This process provides a clear focus for your ESG reporting and defines your responsibilities within Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) areas, serving as the foundation for a comprehensive ESG strategy.

- Alba Project Group offers 3 different DMA packages
So you can choose exactly the level of support your organisation needs. - Each package includes our physical DMA workshop
Here we cover and review all ESG areas in your organisation. - Our DMA packages comply with applicable legal requirements (CSRD) for ESG reporting and are therefore subject to and approved by an auditor’s report.
ESG Analysis & Reporting
With the DMA (phase 2) in place, we can now conduct the Gap Analysis where we compare exactly what you need to report ESG on with your existing ESG situation.
This allows us to determine what you need to achieve compliance and report ESG to authorities or customers. It also enables us to assess where you might want to strengthen your business further, for example in relation to specific ESG policies that are considered to be important to your business.

- Alba’s ESG process allows us to streamline up to 50% of the work in the Gap Analysis because we have already sorted the necessary ESG data through Phase 1 + 2.
Have you also encountered tons of ESG platforms? We’ll take a closer look at them now.
We don’t sell ESG software or platforms, but provide guidance on them and use them where they provide value for you:
- Phase 3 is planning the collection of your ESG data – and this (extensive) task can be greatly facilitated by using the right digital ESG tools.
- At Alba, we have tested 30+ digital ESG platforms and tools and can advise you 100% independently on the options that are right for your organisation.
- By the right choice of digital ESG tools, your data collection work can be reduced by up to 80% (compared to manual data collection and calculation).
ESG Analysis & Reporting
Something that could could be better?
Consider a ‘mid-term optimisation’ Policy Package before reporting.
Before you start collecting ESG data, it’s time to consider if there is anything you want to get a handle on: Something you would like to be able to report positively on and talk about in your ESG report?

- Get a handle on ESG policies 3x faster with our CSRD compliant Policy Packages
Alba has pre-developed CSRD compliant ESG Policy Packages with plans and processes tailored to your specific needs across 11 ESRS standards, saving you significant development time. - Compliant ESG policies are fundamental to drive your ESG agenda
Many Danish companies have a responsible culture and many sustainable initiatives – but have not formalised them in policies in accordance with CSRD requirements. This means they cannot be positively reported on under the CSRD reporting requirements. - Alba’s pre-developed ESG policies are customised to your company
This means you can underline your concrete company ESG efforts with CSRD aligned policies in specific areas where you want to highlight that your organisation is making a difference and taking responsibility.
ESG Analysis & Reporting
The biggest ESG task doesn’t have to be that big.
A variety of digital ESG tools may significantly assist you with the ESG data collection task. We don’t sell ESG tools – but we know (almost) all of them and can guide you in using them where they bring value to you.
The collection of ESG data – especially under the new CSRD directive – has raised eyebrows for its scope and complexity across corporate value chains. Nevertheless, much of the data work can be reduced with the assistance of approved and compliant using a range of digital tools and platforms. But what should you choose?

Have you also been swamped by a ton of promising digital ESG platforms and software?
Do you find it difficult to figure out which ones are good and can do what? You are not alone.
- Alba has tested 30+ ESG platforms and can advise you 100% independently. Many digital ESG platforms promise the World. But which ones are good? And what are they good at? The answer is: It depends on your business model, value chain and current ESG situation. We can help you choose the tools that can best assist you.
- Digital automation can be up to x10 more effective than manual data collection. CSRD and technology allow us to automate extensive data collection tasks – while helping you set goals, track progress, and more.
- An ESG platform saves additional time on ESG reporting from year to year. Think about continuity: Next year you simply build on your ‘ESG Baseline’ where you left off. By keeping digital ESG accounts, you simply update where there is new data and save significant time in ESG reporting.
ESG Analysis & Reporting
Effective ESG communication is data driven
Think commercially.
With your ESG process well underway, ESG policies formalised and ESG data in place, make sure you extract value from the project.
Do not simply report your ESG in a dry spreadsheet, but make sure you ‘translate’ your data:
Read more
- What do your numbers mean in the real world?
- What value do you create?
It’s also in the analysis phase that a great ESG platform helps provide insights for your ESG communication that provide competitive advantages – as well as pointing the way to cost reductions and adding bottom line value.
ESG Analysis & Reporting
What’s your end goal?
- Is the ESG report just a necessary compliance evil?
- Or are you ready to extract commercial value from ESG?
ESG has rapidly become a business-critical hygiene that is becoming more and more important in tenders, choice of suppliers, partners and customers.
Let Alba Project Group help you with a strong and affordable process, as well as the right tools that also help you with the production of the ESG Report itself.
