CSOas a service

Your sustainability department. For a fixed monthly fee.

A dedicated CSO and a team of specialists take care of the agreed sustainability work. From strategy and execution to data and reporting. You keep the overview, we drive the progress.

Discuss your challenge

A 30-minute introduction: your challenge, how we could help and a clear next step.

  • Too much on top of the day job.

    Sustainability sits with an employee whose diary is already full. Actions get postponed and coherence is lacking.

  • More and more questions from the value chain.

    Customers and partners ask for footprints, product information or ESG data. Gathering reliable answers takes time.

  • Ambitions that need execution.

    The goals and plans are there. What is needed now are people, clear responsibilities and a workable rhythm.

Know what you get

Outsource your sustainability function.

We agree on the work, capacity, meetings and the monthly fee in advance. So you know who does what and what to expect.

Fixed monthly fee

Your complete sustainability function.

A dedicated CSO organises the agreed work and brings in specialists where needed. You get a work plan, a meeting rhythm and insight into progress.

  • A dedicated CSO and capacity agreed in advance
  • A work plan with priorities and responsibilities
  • Execution and coordination of agreed tasks
  • Progress meetings and an overview of actions and KPIs
  • Specialists and tools within the agreed scope

A tailored fixed monthly fee, based on scope and capacity. The use of tools, specialists and any additional work is agreed in advance. The board retains its formal responsibilities.

Extra expertise & capacity

Your team. Stronger in execution.

Does your organisation already have someone responsible for sustainability? We support them with the expertise, capacity and tools needed to move forward.

  • Support for your own sustainability manager
  • Specialists for specific issues
  • FaaS and LaaS as fitting support
  • A clear division of tasks and joint meetings

We agree in advance which tasks, effort and costs are part of the collaboration.

Temporary or project-based

The right professional. At the right time.

For a replacement, a change programme or a defined project, we provide the right reinforcement. With an interim CSO, a specialist or a project team.

  • An interim CSO for temporary leadership
  • Specialist project support
  • A clear assignment and handover
  • Alignment with your existing organisation

Availability, duration and effort are decided together, based on your needs.

Anonymised case study

From scattered ESG data to a shared way of working.

Anonymised case study: setting up ESG reporting for a construction group with several regional companies.

The challenge

Everyone contributes. Who safeguards the whole?

Several regional companies supply sustainability data. That calls for clear roles, a shared planning and a traceable process from input to reporting.

Our approach
  • A process manual with tasks, roles and the information to be delivered
  • Data submission in FaaS, central validation and consolidation
  • A link between policy, KPIs, dashboards and reporting

The process manual connects responsibilities, data processing and reporting in one way of working.
