ESG Strategy and Reporting

One set of evidence for every questionnaire, EcoVadis assessment and tender, updated each year. Built around the EU VSME standard and adapted to industrial, logistics and maritime suppliers.

The six steps

From first baseline to a report your customers can use

Every step answers a question a supplier eventually faces. Together they turn customer ESG demands into a system the business benefits from. Steps can also be taken individually. Most companies start with the Baseline.

TCB builds the environmental section from measured data. Social and governance sections are documented with your team.

Who it is for

Suppliers that receive ESG questionnaires, EcoVadis requests or tender requirements from large customers, and have no in-house sustainability function.

What you get

Materiality and legislation scan, ESG action plan and policies, VSME-aligned report, EcoVadis and questionnaire response pack, tender-ready sustainability profile.

How it works

Sustainability Baseline

TCB and the client jointly identify which sustainability topics are relevant to the business. This comprises a materiality assessment to identify the Environmental, Social and Governance topics relevant to the company, and a scan of the sustainability-linked legislation relevant to the client's activities.

Deliverables Materiality assessment, legislation and customer-requirement scan, gap overview

Strategy and Roadmap

TCB supports the client in setting priorities, defining policies, and building a roadmap that fits the business. Targets are grounded in the materiality results, not a generic template.

Deliverables ESG action plans, sustainability policies, decarbonisation and circular strategies, targets and roadmap

Implementation Support

TCB works alongside the client to put the plan into action: process reviews, supplier engagement, energy and resource efficiency measures, and governance setup.

Deliverables Energy and resource efficiency measures, supplier engagement programme, governance setup

Data and Monitoring

TCB maps the sources of information available to the client and discusses pathways to optimise data gathering and processing, to streamline the monitoring and reporting that follow.

Deliverables Monitoring and data model setup. Carbon accounting (Scopes 1, 2 and 3) and Product Carbon Footprint are delivered through GHG Accounting and Decarbonisation

Reporting

TCB supports the client in delivering a first VSME-aligned sustainability report, structured to meet client and partner requirements and ready to share.

Commercial Integration

TCB helps the client turn their sustainability profile into a business asset: stronger tender responses and more credible client conversations.

Deliverables Tender-ready sustainability profile, client-facing evidence pack

Deliverables are tailored to each client's situation. The final scope can vary depending on the client's specific needs. This list is indicative only, and no rights can be derived from it.

Carbon figures for the report come from GHG Accounting and Decarbonisation.

Common triggers

When do companies start this work?

A customer questionnaire arrived at tender

The most common trigger. A structured baseline turns the scramble into a repeatable answer, and the next questionnaire into a quick update.

A customer requires an EcoVadis assessment

EcoVadis (a widely used supplier sustainability rating) rewards documented policies and evidence. Preparing the right material in advance makes a stronger score achievable with less scramble.

The business wants to get ahead of it

Some companies start before the first request lands. They tend to get the most value: the baseline surfaces efficiency opportunities and risks on its own merits.
