Do you have a competitive ESG/sustainability strategy and program in place? Is it aligned with your business strategy and global reporting standards? We will help you develop a competitive ESG strategy to effectively address the varied interests of your internal and external stakeholders. This effort includes a full assessment of the fashion industry landscape and competitors.

Over the last few years, governments and NGOs/INGOs have introduced new legislation and regulatory measures targeting the fashion & apparel industry. Whether it’s the FABRIC Act or the Garment Worker Protection Act, fashion and apparel brands should now comply with a myriad of new laws and regulations. As part of this solution, we continuously monitor regulatory developments.

The fashion & apparel industry is responsible for approximately 2-8% of all GHG emissions and all brands – large and small – must comply with increasingly stringent emissions reporting requirements. So, where do you stand? We will help you track, measure, and report your Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions in line with industry &, government regulations, and global standards.

Do you have a clear understanding of the issues that are most relevant to your sustainability agenda? Have you ever conducted a Materiality Assessment? This foundational exercise forms the backbone of all sustainability reporting. We will engage your internal and external stakeholders to identify the most “material” issues for your company and determine what should be reported.

As industry experts, we understand that fashion supply chains are typically long and complex. We also appreciate the unique challenges that fashion brands face in an increasingly disruptive global economy. We work closely with strategic partners like Assent Compliance to identify supply chain risks, transform challenges into opportunities, and enhance sustainability throughout the supply chain.

Do you have a Chemical Management Policy or materials management program in place? As industry experts, we understand the role that chemicals play in human and environmental health and the impact they can have on workers, water and the end consumer. We will help you to assess and address harmful chemicals at the design and manufacturing stages.

Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) is a results-based management approach that enables organizations to continuously assess and improve key programs as well as overall performance. We draw upon the expertise of TBG’s M&E Practice Group, which has conducted numerous projects across 40+ countries for UN agencies/programmes, INGOs/NGOs, and development agencies.

Sustainability reporting can be time-consuming and complicated. SASB? GRI? TCFD? WEF Common Metrics? We will help you develop credible, quantifiable, and impactful sustainability reports and report cards that accurately reflect your achievements and overall progress. We will also benchmark your annual sustainability report/report card against our reports database.
