At ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL, we specialize in guiding organizations through the evolving landscape of sustainability compliance. The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is a transformative regulation replacing the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD), requiring detailed disclosure of sustainability-related information. With our expertise, we ensure your organization aligns with the European Union’s Green Deal, SFDR, and EU Taxonomy while meeting CSRD requirements seamlessly.
Our Expertise in CSRD Compliance
ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL helps businesses navigate the complexity of the CSRD, ensuring full alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and achieving compliance through a streamlined, tailored approach.
Who Does the CSRD Apply To?
Following the 2026 Omnibus amendments, the CSRD applies to:
-
EU companies and groups with more than 1,000 employees and more than €450 million in net annual turnover
-
Non-EU companies with more than €450 million in EU turnover and an EU subsidiary or branch with more than €200 million in turnover
Listed SMEs are no longer in scope. Companies below the thresholds may still receive data requests from EU customers, but businesses with fewer than 1,000 employees can decline requests that go beyond the voluntary SME reporting standard.
ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL evaluates your eligibility and helps establish a clear path to compliance.
CSRD Implementation Timeline
CSRD obligations are phased in based on company size and status:
-
Companies that began reporting for financial year 2024 continue, although EU member states may exempt those that fall below the new thresholds for 2025 and 2026
-
The revised scope applies to financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2027
We provide year-by-year guidance, ensuring your organization is prepared for each reporting milestone.
Double Materiality Assessments
The Double Materiality Principle, central to the CSRD, examines:
-
Impact Materiality: Your organization’s effect on environmental and social factors
-
Financial Materiality: How sustainability issues affect your financial performance
ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL offers end-to-end support for Double Materiality Assessments, including:
-
Stakeholder and risk analysis
-
ESG impact evaluation
-
Customized strategies addressing material issues
Sustainable Economic Activity & KPI Disclosure
The CSRD defines Sustainable Economic Activity within the EU Taxonomy, requiring organizations to disclose:
-
Revenue, capital expenditures (CapEx), and operational expenditures (OpEx) related to sustainable activities
-
Compliance with ESRS topical standards, such as Environment (E1 to E5), Social (S1 to S4), and Governance (G1) metrics
ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL helps you develop and disclose KPIs that demonstrate compliance while showcasing your sustainability initiatives.
Third-Party Verification
The CSRD mandates independent assurance of reported sustainability information. ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL simplifies the verification process by:
-

-
Connecting you with trusted third-party verifiers
