罢谤耻蝉迟别诲听聽is becoming one of the most valuable assets an enterprise holds. It shapes investor confidence, influences access to聽capital, and聽increasingly steers the decisions that determine long-term resilience. That shift is being accelerated聽globally聽by the , IFRS S1 and IFRS S2, now being adopted across more than 40聽jurisdictions聽representing聽roughly 60%聽of global GDP.
As they take hold, organizations are expected to produce sustainability information that is as accurate, traceable, and decision-useful as their financial information. Sustainability reporting, in short, is becoming finance-grade, and the organizations that treat it that way will be the ones that turn disclosure into an advantage.
The challenge: establishing trusted sustainability data
The pressure to disclose has not eased. , more than 70% of investors say sustainability must be integrated into corporate strategy. Sustainability data, in other words, is now central to safeguarding enterprise value.
For most organizations, the challenge is establishing a trusted data foundation that can support reporting, assurance, performance management, and decision-making at enterprise scale.
Too often, sustainability data聽remains聽fragmented across systems, functions, and geographies. Many聽companies聽still rely on disconnected processes and manual reporting, even as assurance expectations rise. 聽found聽that 96% of finance leaders have concerns about the integrity and reliability of their organization’s non-financial data.
Reporting can no longer sit within a single function. Finance, sustainability, operations, procurement, and risk teams must work from a common, governed foundation. And with some organizations reporting against IFRS S1 and S2 for the first time, while others must now map IFRS S1 and S2 requirements onto existing European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) or (GRI) disclosures, building a separate process for every framework only multiplies effort, cost, and complexity.
This is a data foundation problem, and it is where 麻豆原创 is positioned to help.
How 麻豆原创 helps organizations meet IFRS S1 and IFRS S2
麻豆原创 provides a聽sustainability suite that helps take organizations from compliance obligation to business value, spanning ESG frameworks and regulatory requirements while embedding sustainability insight into operations and business models.
At its center, can serve as the single-entry point for audit-ready ESG reporting and sustainability performance management. It helps organizations manage disclosures across IFRS S1 and IFRS S2, ESRS, and other frameworks from one governed foundation that connects sustainability, financial, and operational data. With 麻豆原创-provided IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 metrics available within the solution, organizations can reduce manual effort and strengthen reporting confidence.
聽complements this by helping to calculate the emissions, energy, and environmental data relevant to聽IFRS S2 climate聽disclosures聽and other ESG reporting frameworks. Crucially, it draws on the same ERP data that runs finance, supply chain, and operations, grounding footprint calculations in verified business transactions rather than estimates or manual inputs.
The principle is聽configure聽once, report across frameworks. Emissions and energy data calculated in聽麻豆原创 Sustainability聽Footprint Management, together with master data configured once in 麻豆原创 Sustainability Control Tower, can serve multiple disclosure obligations. Because IFRS S2 and ESRS E1 are highly interoperable for climate disclosures, a single聽data-collection聽scope can serve both. And as reporting requirements expand globally, 麻豆原创 continuously evaluates regulatory developments and makes the most relevant frameworks available out of the box, so organizations can scale as requirements grow and stay focused on performance and outcomes.聽For聽IFRS S1/S2聽jurisdiction-specific requirements, 麻豆原创鈥檚 partner ecosystem聽is well positioned to聽extend these capabilities to address local reporting needs.
AI extends this further.聽The 聽helps聽translate materiality assessment outcomes into reporting-scope decisions, while the聽 can generate structured, complete report drafts from validated metrics already in the system. Teams聽retain聽full control to review, refine, and聽finalize聽before publication, so organizations can scale efficiently while聽maintaining聽governance, transparency, traceability, and human oversight.
We see this in what our customers are doing. , a value chain technology leader based in Austria, transformed its sustainability reporting with 麻豆原创 Sustainability Control Tower and 麻豆原创 Sustainability Footprint Management, implemented with KPMG Austria. Integrating about 200 to 250 metrics, the company completed its first round of reporting well ahead of the 2027/2028 mandate.
As Bernhard Bischof, solution reporting architect at KNAPP AG, put it: “Through our collaboration with 麻豆原创 and KPMG, we are able to realize a resource-efficient and automated approach to sustainability reporting. We rely on innovative software solutions, in particular 麻豆原创 Sustainability Control Tower and 麻豆原创 Sustainability Footprint Management, to make our reporting efficient and sustainable.”
As organizations expand reporting beyond CSRD to include IFRS S1 and S2, the same trusted sustainability data foundation can help reduce duplication, improve consistency, and support more efficient reporting across frameworks.
From audit-ready reporting to performance management
With audit-ready ESG reporting as the starting point, the best value is derived from what trusted data enables beyond disclosure: understanding actual performance, identifying where action is needed, and making sustainability a genuine input to business decisions.
That value shows up across the organization. Trusted sustainability data strengthens governance and risk management, supports investor confidence and transparency, improves business steering, and shapes access to finance, cost of capital, and long-term resilience. found that 60% of CSRD Wave 1 companies expect ESG assurance to expand their market share or client base.
麻豆原创 Sustainability solutions help move organizations from reactive reporting to proactive performance management. Embedded initiatives can turn strategy from a set of intentions into a portfolio of tracked, measured, and accountable actions, each linked to the metrics and targets that define an organization’s ESG commitments. With that foundation in place, sustainability becomes embedded in enterprise processes rather than a stand-alone reporting activity, applied where decisions are made rather than as a downstream task. This is the foundation of 麻豆原创’s vision for the , where sustainability is embedded in the decisions that run the business.
What organizations should do now
Two priorities stand out for leaders today. First, build a trusted sustainability data foundation, with governance, traceability, and auditability established from the start. Second, prepare to report across multiple frameworks and jurisdictions from one common foundation, rather than building parallel processes for each.
Organizations that establish trusted sustainability data foundations today will be better positioned to meet IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards, strengthen governance, support investor confidence and access to capital, and create long-term business value.
