What are Strategic Deep-Dives
A Strategic Deep-Dive Assessment allows your organisation to focus on one material ESG topic and explore the full spectrum of opportunities and actions. Whether it is developing a Net Zero strategy, setting Science-Based Targets (SBTi), quantifying biodiversity impact, pursuing B Corp certification, or enhancing workplace culture, &BLOOM helps you translate ambition into a practical, actionable plan.
Why this matters
Organisations often struggle to prioritise and act on complex ESG topics.
A deep-dive approach:
-
Provides a comprehensive understanding of one critical ESG area.
-
Identifies opportunities to enhance impact, reduce risks, and deliver strategic value.
-
Ensures initiatives are aligned with industry best practices, frameworks, and regulatory expectations.
-
Helps integrate the selected topic into broader ESG strategy for measurable outcomes.
Focusing on a single topic accelerates meaningful progress, positions your organisation as a leader in sustainability, and strengthens your ESG performance.
What you get
✓ Detailed assessment of one material ESG topic, including current performance, gaps, and opportunities.
✓ Tailored roadmap outlining clear, actionable steps to advance the topic, aligned with business objectives.
✓ Benchmarking and best-practice insights against industry peers and relevant frameworks.
✓ Strategic guidance on opportunities such as Science-Based Targets (SBTi), Net Zero strategy, B Corp certification, biodiversity measurement, or employee engagement initiatives.
✓ Support for measurable outcomes, including KPIs and milestones to track progress over time.
Who is this for
Organisations looking to make substantial progress in a specific ESG area, particularly those:
Preparing or refining a Net Zero, biodiversity, or Science-Based Targets initiative.
Pursuing B Corp certification or other recognised ESG standards.
Enhancing workplace culture to become a great place to work.
Seeking deep, actionable insights for one critical ESG topic to integrate into broader strategy.
Where it fits in our framework
Prerequisities
A Strategic Deep-Dive Assessment is most effective for organisations with a foundational ESG Policy or ESG Report, providing context, material topics, and baseline data to guide the deep dive.
What the process looks like
&BLOOM tailors the approach depending on your chosen topic. We combine data analysis, benchmarking, stakeholder insights, and scenario exploration to identify opportunities and develop a comprehensive deep-dive. Outputs include actionable recommendations, KPIs, and clear milestones for implementation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we focus on multiple topics at once?
Yes, but we recommend sequential deep-dives to ensure each topic receives sufficient focus and actionable recommendations.
How does this differ from a full ESG strategy?
A deep-dive intensively examines one material topic, whereas a full ESG strategy addresses all material ESG areas across your organisation.
Can you support implementation after the deep-dive?
Yes. &BLOOM can provide ongoing guidance to help your team implement recommendations, track KPIs, and integrate actions into your broader ESG strategy.
