Project: Retailer

This retailer wanted to add sustainability metrics and KPIs into Executive leadership decisions, but needed to determine which metrics were the most material to both the company and its key stakeholders.

SBC worked with a cross functional team to identify and rank material aspects for decision making by:

• Conducting a materiality analysis on social and environmental issues
• Developing a North Star Vision and Sustainability Goals
• Benchmarking their sustainability actions against peers and Newsweek Green Rankings
• Identifying metrics aligned with business and CSR efforts

The retailer embedded the recommended goals, metrics, and KPIs into monthly Executive decision-making and reporting structures as well as their Master Sustainability Plan.
