How our Accredited Solutions Providers can help you become an environmental leader and join the A-list in 2024

As you prepare for the upcoming disclosure cycle, consider collaborating with an Accredited Solutions Provider to accelerate your organization's journey toward environmental leadership.

Next week we will see CDP’s 2023 disclosure cycle coming to a close as eligible companies receive their CDP scores, demonstrating their position on the path to environmental leadership. There has been a significant increase in the number of responses who are eligible for a score this year, signaling that more companies than ever are disclosing through CDP and seeing the value in submitting their questionnaires before the scoring deadline. By assigning companies scores ranging from A to D-, we guide companies through a progression that encompasses disclosure, awareness, management, and ultimately, leadership. Achieving leadership, represented by an A score, involves showcasing exemplary practices in both strategy and implementation. These leading companies have implemented initiatives such as establishing science-based targets, formulating climate transition plans, devising strategies for assessing water-related risks, and reporting on the impact of deforestation across all relevant operations, supply chains, and commodities. CDP’s Accredited Solutions Provider (ASP) programme is designed to assist your organization throughout this journey. Leveraging their experience and expertise across various sectors and industries, CDP's Accredited Solutions Providers can facilitate the implementation of transformative changes necessary for creating a genuinely sustainable future. As you prepare for the upcoming disclosure cycle, consider collaborating with an Accredited Solutions Provider to accelerate your organization's journey toward environmental leadership.
