2024
Sustainability reporting is being elevated to the same level as financial reporting. This creates new challenges for the management of the environmental social governance data to be collected and for audit-compliant reporting as a whole. The identification of data points relevant to reporting based on the results of the materiality analysis as well as the company-wide collection and structuring of the relevant data and, if necessary, the corresponding implementation in IT systems are important steps on the way to the sustainability report.
Based on the experience gained from our previous Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) projects, we have written a practical guide to successful data management for an industry association. The guide also contains information on audit-proof reporting. The following content is covered in detail:
The guide ends with concrete steps and recommendations for action for companies.
The guide provides information that can be linked to the two other guides (materiality analysis and sustainable governance in the context of CSRD). The finished guide will be published on the industry association's website and can be viewed and downloaded by member companies. Member companies will also be offered an online webinar on the results of the guidelines.

The Single Market Programme promotes the EU internal market in order to strengthen it, standardise it and make it more competitive. Prognos was involved in the mid-term evaluation of the programme.
Prognos is supporting the North Rhine-Westphalian Ministry of the Environment in organising, implementing and establishing the world's first trade exhibition for the climate adaptation industry.
The Public Sector Loan Facility is an EU financial instrument to ensure a socially just transition to climate neutrality in the regions. Prognos and t33 srl evaluated the instrument.
German industry is heavily dependent on raw materials and intermediate products from abroad, especially from China. Prognos analysed supply chains and developed recommendations for action.
How can innovations be implemented in practice? This is where the BMBF's ‘Innovative University’ funding initiative comes in. Prognos and Fraunhofer ISI are evaluating the programme.
On behalf of the BMWK, we evaluate the impact of the BEG in the funding period 2021 – 2025 together with ifeu, ITG, and FIW.
Specialists waste a lot of time on tiresome routine tasks. 3D planning tools or digital twins can help. Our analysis for the Fraunhofer IGD shows which professional groups benefit directly from their digital technologies.
Prognos has developed a tool for the Circular Cities and Regions Initiative (CCRI) that supports cities and regions in monitoring their circular economy activities.
Foreign trade, employment, investment and raw materials: ahead of the new US administration taking office, we analysed for the Süddeutsche Zeitung how dependent our economy is on the US and China.
How powerful is the green tech industry in Bavaria? What is its economic significance? We examined these questions on behalf of the vbw using our envigos model.
Prognos is one of the oldest economic research centres in Europe. Founded at the University of Basel, Prognos experts have been conducting research for a wide range of clients from the public and private sectors since 1959 – politically independent, scientifically sound.
