Consulting Services
Developing and integrating effective CSI programmes and sustainability management systems into the business structure are challenging undertakings, requiring both considerable resources and specialist knowledge. Trialogue is able to draw on its extensive experience and expertise to provide client-specific research and consulting services in both CSI and sustainability:
Sustainability Consulting
Embedding sustainability practices into your business requires commitment at all levels. Trialogue’s sustainability consulting is centered on the facilitation of sustainability management across the spectrum of operations. This requires a review of current approaches to sustainability, including information-gathering procedures, reporting mechanisms and gauging stakeholder perceptions. Additionally, it involves presenting a tailored business case for sustainability; identifying critical areas where sustainability practices are needed; and how best to implement, manage and finally report on sustainability interventions.
CSI Consulting
Trialogue specialises in the development of industry-specific corporate CSI strategies. Developed against a tried and tested CSI framework, our end-to-end consulting process covers initial background research, holistic strategy development, project selection and implementation, and measurement and evaluation. The process is essential to all newcomers implementing CSI into their business, and to those wishing to revisit their current approach within the context of integrated sustainability reporting, greater alignment to the BEE agenda and overall business strategy.
