Double materiality, explained in 30 seconds
Traditional materiality asked one question: “Which ESG issues affect our financial performance?” Double materiality asks a second: “How does our business affect people, communities and the planet?”
Across all ESG regulation frameworks CSRD, GRI, BRSR, etc. you must assess both before you write a single line of your sustainability report. Skip it or shortcut it, and your entire report is built on the wrong foundation- scoped to the wrong topics, missing material risks, and unlikely to survive third-party assurance.
It’s no longer a nice-to-have analysis. But the mandatory first step that shapes everything downstream.
Expertise you can rely on
Polished through experience with industry frontrunners, our double materiality consultants are pre-vetted for your needs.
Benefits beyond compliance
Some lesser discussed benefits of double materiality assessments-
Eliminate inefficiencies
Relooking supply chain from a green lens refines operations & resource management
Increased transparency
Systemic understanding of your business's links with natural & economic ecosystems
Operational clarity
The assessment process forces a structured conversation across departments.
Advantages over big consultancies
Most mid-market companies don’t need a costly engagement. Benefits businesses like yours have experienced-
| Big 4 / Large Consultancy | Growth For Impact Specialist | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Listed companies with complex multi-jurisdiction mandates | Mid-market, first-time DMA reporters, companies needing focused assessment work |
| Time to start | 6-14 weeks (scoping, procurement, legal) | 48 hours to first consultant match |
| Cost | Fixed high cost, often €50k+ for DMA alone | Flexible- project, retainer, or hourly |
| Who does the work | Junior analysts following a template, supervised by a partner | Senior DMA specialist with hands-on deep ESG Reporting experience |
| Framework depth | Generalist teams upskilled per project | Consultants with direct ESG Reporting expertise |
| Industry knowledge | Broad but shallow per sector | Matched specifically to your industry |
| Flexibility | Fixed SOW, hard to adjust scope mid-project | Modular- hire for full DMA or specific stakeholder consultation |
If you’re a large listed company with operations across multiple EU member states and need a DMA integrated with your group audit- a Big 4 firm may be the right call. For everyone else, overpaying for brand name rarely improves report quality.
