ESG Advisory Service Consultants
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) advisory encompasses the full spectrum of strategic, operational, and reporting support that organisations need to integrate sustainability into their core business model. An effective ESG Advisory Service Consultant helps companies identify material issues, build reporting frameworks, satisfy regulatory requirements, improve ESG ratings, and communicate ESG performance credibly to investors, customers, and regulators.
With ESG disclosure expectations rapidly evolving in India (BRSR mandates), Saudi Arabia (Vision 2030 sustainability goals), and globally, organisations face mounting pressure to demonstrate structured, measurable, and verifiable ESG performance. Sustaind's ESG Advisory team helps you stay ahead of this curve.
ESG Strategy Development
We work with your leadership team to develop a bespoke ESG strategy aligned with your industry context, stakeholder expectations, and business objectives. This includes defining your ESG vision, setting measurable targets, identifying governance structures, and building an ESG roadmap that integrates seamlessly with your corporate strategy.
Materiality Assessment
Not all ESG issues are equally relevant to your business. Sustaind conducts structured materiality assessments — engaging internal and external stakeholders — to identify and prioritise the ESG topics that matter most to your organisation and its stakeholders. This forms the analytical backbone of your ESG strategy and reporting.
ESG Reporting & Disclosures
We prepare high-quality, disclosure-ready ESG reports aligned with:
-
GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) Standards
-
BRSR (Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report) — mandatory for top 1000 listed Indian companies
-
CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project)
-
EcoVadis Sustainability Ratings
-
DJSI (Dow Jones Sustainability Index)
-
IFC Performance Standards

UN SDG Mapping
Our reports are structured to satisfy regulatory requirements, satisfy investor ESG due diligence, and strengthen your brand's sustainability positioning.
ESG Governance Framework
We help organisations establish robust ESG governance: defining board-level ESG responsibilities, integrating ESG metrics into executive KPIs, setting up ESG committees, and building data management systems that enable consistent, auditable ESG performance tracking.
Supplier ESG Engagement & Supply
Chain Audits
Sustaind conducts large-scale supply chain ESG audits across India and international markets. We engage suppliers, collect ESG data, conduct on-site verifications, and validate evidence — ensuring your supply chain ESG claims are credible and compliant. Our audits typically focus on key vendors contributing 75%+ of revenue or procurement value.
Assurance & ESG Risk Screening
We provide Environmental and Social Due Diligence (ESDD) and ESG risk screening for transactions, investments, and new market entry — supporting investors, lenders, and corporates in making ESG-informed decisions.
