FAQs
The Voluntary Standard Module (VSME) provides a structured approach to collecting, analyzing, and sharing ESG data. It helps organizations build a comprehensive sustainability database, meet stakeholder expectations, secure financing, and identify potential sustainability risks early in the process.
It is perfect for small and medium-sized enterprises seeking a cost-effective entry into ESG reporting. It is particularly valuable for organizations preparing for future regulatory requirements and meeting increasing stakeholder expectations from investors, banks, and customers.
Two detailed reporting levels ensure comprehensive sustainability tracking:
- Basic Module: Covers 65 essential data points including energy consumption, CO2 emissions, water and waste management, diversity, and corporate governance
- Comprehensive Module: Adds 35 advanced data points exploring climate risks, emission reduction strategies, supply chain sustainability, and human rights considerations
The module simplifies sustainability reporting through three core steps:
- Intelligent ESG data collection using AI-supported templates
- Automated reporting to meet stakeholder requirements
- Public sustainability profile sharing for transparent communication
Yes. The VSME module can be combined with the Double Materiality Assessment and CO2 footprint modules. Additionally, data collected in the VSME module can be migrated to the ESRS module at a later stage for more advanced and regulatory-compliant reporting.
