WHAT WE DO:


Climate & Nature Strategy

Climate and nature-related risks and opportunities are reshaping the business landscape. We make the complex topic manageable. Helping you assess exposure, build lasting resilience, and disclose with confidence against leading national and global frameworks.

  • Climate risk and opportunity assessment (including scenario analysis)

  • Financial impact quantification

  • Climate resilience and transition planning

  • Risk management framework development and integration

  • Climate governance capability building

  • Emissions and climate-related metrics measurement, target setting and performance tracking

  • Climate disclosure reporting (e.g. AASB, NZ CS, IFRS, TCFD, TNFD, ISSB-aligned reporting)


Carbon Management & Compliance

Measure, manage and reduce your GHG emissions with confidence and credibility. We give you the tools and expertise to measure accurately across Scope 1, 2 and 3. We can provide you with support to manage the complexities of Scope 3 emissions and set meaningful targets, turning your performance into an authentic climate narrative. Whether you want to measure your carbon, or prepare disclosure-ready reporting, we provide clear, data-driven support at every step. For SMEs without a supply chain, use our free carbon calculator to help kickstart your carbon journey.

  • Supplier engagement

  • Carbon scoping and measurement (Scope 1, 2, 3) to the ISO 14064-1 standard or GHG Protocol

  • Emissions reduction target setting, including Science-Based Targets

  • Carbon management plans with strategies to achieve emissions reduction


ESG & Sustainability Strategy

Embedding ESG into your core strategy unlocks long-term value — not just for your business, but for stakeholders too. If you have them, we assess your current ESG performance and priorities, then identify what matters most to your business and stakeholders, and build strategies that are practical, measurable, and owned by your organisation. The result is a clear roadmap that embeds sustainability into how you operate and delivers real progress over time.

  • ESG health check

  • Materiality assessment (GRI aligned)

  • Integration into business planning

  • Sustainability strategy development

  • Target setting and roadmap design


Governance, Risk & Financial Resilience

We embed ESG into the governance, risk and financial frameworks that drive your business to make sustainability part of how decisions get made, not an afterthought to them. We build internal capability through targeted training, workshops and practical guidance, so your teams can turn strategy into confident execution. We also engage in the private equity space, offering structured due diligence that surfaces ESG risk and opportunity in potential investments and across portfolio companies.

Social Responsibility, Ethical Supply Chains & Compliance

  • Social and labour due diligence assessment

  • Supply chain governance and engagement support

  • Modern slavery compliance and risk assessment, and policy development in line with key regulatory regimes
