The Challenge

If your business supplies goods or services to large companies in Europe, you've likely received CSRD data requests. These requests ask for details about your environmental, social, or governance performance - information that helps your clients complete their own CSRD reports.

For many small businesses, this can be confusing. What exactly do they need? How much detail should you provide? And how do you ensure your data looks professional without creating unnecessary workload?

Without a structured approach, responding to these requests can take hours of manual work, and you may need to repeat the process for multiple clients. CSRD Pro simplifies this by providing a reusable, professional data package aligned with the VSME Standard.

How CSRD Pro Helps

Our platform structures your sustainability data according to the VSME Basic Module, making it compatible with clients' ESRS templates. Create your data package once, then reuse it for multiple client requests.

Real-World Example

  • 8 hours per client request
  • Uncertainty about what to include
