From Gap Analysis to Implementation

The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence (CSDDD) and other key due diligence frameworks require companies to identify, assess, mitigate, and eliminate environmental and social risks across their own operations and supply chains. These frameworks build on internationally recognised standards, including the UNGPs and OECD Guidelines on Responsible Business Conduct.

The critical first step is understanding where your organisation stands today. CSR Europe's due diligence implementation service starts with a structured gap analysis, benchmarking your current practices against an advanced framework developed by CSR Europe, based on CSDDD, UNGPs, and OECD Guidelines. From there, we work with you to address the gaps that matter most.

 

The service is modular. The second phase is designed around your organisation's specific needs and the outcomes of the initial analysis, allowing you to select the components most relevant to your situation.

How the Service Works

The service runs in two phases, with Phase 1 taking approximately two months. Each module in Phase 2 takes approximately 1.5 months.

Phase 1: Scoping and Analysis of Current Performance

A detailed gap analysis benchmarking your organisation's current due diligence practices against an advanced framework based on CSDDD and other key due diligence frameworks, UNGPs, and OECD Guidelines.

Outputs include an in-depth understanding of your current maturity level, a detailed analysis of gaps in achieving CSDDD compliance, and prioritised recommendations for action.

Phase 2: Enhancing the Internal Due Diligence Architecture

Depending on your organisation's needs and the outcomes of Phase 1, you can select one or more of the following modules:

  1. Roadmap for Action. A structured roadmap outlining specific measures for each relevant function or department to advance your due diligence journey.

  2. Rewriting Internal Policies and Processes. Tailored support to reshape and align internal policies and processes with key due diligence frameworks, in a cost-efficient and impact-oriented manner.

  3. Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence Report. A document designed to communicate your organisation's environmental and social risk management practices clearly to external stakeholders.
