Artificial intelligence and sustainability management are growing together – but what does that specifically mean for companies? In this Talk in the Sustainability x AI series, Janika Ofterdinger and Dr. Britta Frommeyer from Nextra Consulting discuss where AI can already provide relief today, which application areas are particularly relevant, and what is crucial for a successful start.
Where AI creates value in sustainability management today
Many sustainability managers spend a large part of their time on data collection, reporting, and answering supplier questionnaires. This is exactly where AI comes in: automated data processing, intelligent benchmarking, and AI-powered questionnaire analysis can drastically reduce routine tasks – freeing up capacity for strategic work.
From AI pilot project to structured approach
The most common mistake when starting with AI: isolated pilot projects without a strategic framework. The talk shows how companies can move from initial use cases to a structured approach with clear priorities – and what criteria are decisive.
The changing role of sustainability management
With increasing AI deployment, the role of sustainability managers is changing: less data maintenance, more evaluation, control, and strategic implementation. The talk discusses how companies can prepare their teams for this shift.
