Sustainable Strategy & Change
Profitability is created by joining finance and values. Goodpoint, sustainability experts and part of the Semcon Group, supports your organisation in developing appropriate strategies, effective policies, accurate sustainability communication and transparent reporting in the environmental, social and governance (ESG) areas.
Clear sustainability requirements
The first step towards a long-term sustainable and profitable business is to be aware of the requirements imposed on the business. This applies to legislation as well as to requirements and wishes from stakeholders.
Our experts help clients with implementation, integration, auditing, and continuous improvement of sustainability work in accordance with the requirements of, for example, CSRD, the EU Taxonomy, GRI Standards, the Public Procurement Act (Sweden), and the ISO standards 9001 (quality), 14001 (environment) and 45001 (work environment).
Examples of services:
- Training in existing and announced legislation
- Legislative monitoring and compliance control
- Environmental analysis and benchmarking
- Environmental and sustainability assessment
- GAP analysis
- Audits
Risk management
A long-term sustainable business model requires proactive risk assessment. This is necessary to identify both how a business model may and will impact the environment and society, and how sustainability issues and events in society may impact the financial profitability of the same business.
We offer support in implementing systematic control and governance practices that meet the requirements of your key stakeholders.
Examples of services:
- Stakeholder dialogue
- Materiality analysis in accordance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (so-called “double materiality analysis”)
- Investigation, analysis and assessment of business risks and opportunities

With the risks under control, the focus now shifts to the opportunities. How can sustainability create new value for your business? How can you increase your positive impact on climate and society?
