Phase 01 of 08

Goals & KPIs

Set ESG and compliance goals and measurable metrics — and first clarify which obligations actually apply.

Result of this phase: Target catalog with reporting obligations and 3–5 measurable KPIs

Guiding questions

Which frameworks and obligations concern us — CSRD (EU Directive on Sustainability Reporting) with the ESRS reporting standards, EU Taxonomy, LkSG (Supply Chain Due Diligence Act), HinSchG (Whistleblower Protection Act)?

What do we have to report — and from when?

What should improve measurably (data coverage, reporting effort, audit security)?

Checklist

Must = essential step in this phase. Once all must-have items are checked, the phase is complete (green dot in the navigation).

Pitfalls

ESG is treated as a purely marketing and image issue, not as an obligation and control task
