CSRD regulations are evolving: the Omnibus package, new ESRS flexibilities, changing reporting requirements. Many companies are asking: Should we act now or wait? In this webinar, Nextra Consulting explains why waiting is not a good strategy and how Double Materiality Light combined with the VSME standard enables a robust, streamlined entry into sustainability reporting.
Double Materiality Light: What’s Behind It?
The double materiality assessment (DMA) is considered resource-intensive. The Light approach leverages new ESRS flexibilities: top-down instead of bottom-up, focused scoping instead of full coverage, proportionate effort, and use of existing stakeholder information. The result is a robust DMA that requires significantly fewer resources.
VSME as a Pragmatic Reporting Framework
The voluntary EU standard for SMEs (VSME) is specifically designed for companies with limited resources. The webinar demonstrates how to deploy the Basic and Comprehensive modules, how to establish data collection and quality assurance, and how to produce a complete VSME report.
What you will learn in the webinar
- How to implement DMA Light using the new ESRS flexibilities: top-down, focused scoping, proportionate effort
- How to derive a sustainability strategy from DMA results
- How to efficiently prepare a VSME report: Basic vs. Comprehensive, data collection, quality assurance, approval
