CEMAsys provides world-class ESG solution for all industries

Navigating the complex landscape of ESG and sustainability is challenging for organisations, particularly those who need external insight or lack in-house ESG resources.

“A data-driven approach is essential to empower decision-makers to accelerate sustainability transformation efforts,” writes the World Economic Forum. This is where CEMAsys comes in.

CEMAsys delivers an ESG solution comprised of state-of-the-art software and expert consultancy. The solution is available for any company around the world in any industry.

The company’s suite of ESG tools includes environmental, social and governance topics, related data collection and supply chain risk management. In addition, consultants can assist with every phase of the process, from data gathering to building an ESG strategy and writing an ESG report.

The solution is comprehensive in scope as well. “Everything we do is related to global frameworks,” explains Kaksonen.

These include GHG Protocol, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) to name a few. The company also helps companies to fulfil regulatory requirements, such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

Moreover, the solution leaves an audit trail by showing where the data has originated from and how it has been used, transferred and transformed. It also provides integrated solutions for third-party data sources.

CEMAsys helps companies to improve their environmental, social and governance performance and risk management, as well as to comply with complex regulations set by various authorities.

“We see at least two kinds of companies. One type knows that sustainability is a competitive advantage and that they may not survive in the next 30 years without it,” says Kaksonen.

“The other type of company feels pushed to comply, not only by authorities but also by customers, suppliers, investors and employees.”

CEMAsys expert consultants provide support for organisations that need external insight or lack in-house ESG resources.

Demands for sustainability in business are rising rapidly. In fact, some researchers believe we are at a tipping point, where consumers will soon consider sustainability a baseline requirement for purchases.

Meanwhile, regulations are becoming stricter. Depending on the country and industry, companies may need to report on carbon emissions, social issues and risks in the value chain. For those in the EU, the EU Taxonomy Regulation and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive come into play as well.

CEMAsys was established in 2007 as one of the first specialised sustainability consultancies in Norway. Today the company has more than 800 Nordic and international customers in both the public and private sectors.

“We welcome all companies, no matter their maturity level in terms of sustainability. We work with both large and smaller companies at all levels in the process, tailoring our services to meet their specific needs,” concludes Kaksonen.
