sustainability & its implementation

Risk management

Sustainable practices help companies to minimise environmental and social risks, thereby ensuring long-term stability and resilience to challenges such as resource scarcity and regulatory changes.
Financial Times 5
Competitive advantage & brand image

The introduction of sustainable practices strengthens a company's reputation, sets it apart from its competitors and attracts environmentally conscious consumers. This improved brand image can lead to a higher market share and greater customer loyalty.
MDPI 6
Operational efficiency & innovation

Sustainability encourages companies to innovate, which leads to the development of new products and services and improved operational efficiency. This can contribute to increased productivity and reduced operating costs.

Strategy
activation

AA strategy activation enables clear action plans to be drawn up and responsibilities to be defined. This can increase the success rate by up to 70%, particularly in terms of financial growth metrics, operational efficiency and team alignment.
Kaplan, R. S. & Norton, D. P. 8
I don't see sustainability as a trend or a sacrifice, but as an opportunity to create substantial added value from which companies can also benefit in the long term. I am convinced that ecological and social responsibility are compatible with corporate success and that costs can be saved, innovations generated and competitiveness and future viability gained.
At the RS GROUP, we combine ESG regulation and digitalisation to develop customised solutions that create added value for companies.

Current topics
Sustainability is no longer a passing trend, but has already arrived in many companies as a driver of opportunities. Experts assume that the competitiveness and long-term economic success of the company will be significantly determined by it in the future. We would like to present the most important current topics and trends to you here.
LkSG - COMMITTED TO RESPONSIBILITY
The Supply Chain Due Diligence Act presents companies with a multidimensional challenge. Many are increasingly seeing the benefits of a transparent and fair supply chain. We specialise in the development of data-driven platform solutions - from conception to successful onboarding. With a broad-based team, we are well versed in all areas of LkSG implementation.
CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING DIRECTIVE (short: CSRD)
With the CSRD, the EU provides a standardised reporting format for uniform and comparable reporting on sustainability activities. However, many companies that will soon have to report according to the CSRD are overburdened with the reporting. Keyword: double materiality and analysis of business activities under sustainability criteria. With expertise and digital tools, we support your company on the way to CSRD compliance!
REDUCE CO2 FOOTPRINT WHILE SAVING COSTS?
Having an overview of all emissions and sustainability parameters is essential for every company. In order to successfully integrate sustainability into the business model, we support the creation of science-based targets and data-driven best practices, as well as the creation of legally compliant reports according to ISO 14064 and the GHG Protocol.
USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN
UX design considers all aspects of the user experience when interacting with a product, service or system. The use of a customer-centred process design is an essential success factor for meeting customer expectations, generating new customers, strengthening customer loyalty and thus increasing the overall success of the company. We draw on many years of experience from various projects and are optimally positioned for your challenges with our UX team.
