Reducing Admin, Increasing Action
Many investors we work with face the same struggle: sustainability reporting eats up more time than it should. Between annual disclosures, investor questionnaires, and changing sustainability frameworks, the admin load keeps growing.
And somehow, you’re expected to hit every reporting deadline and decarbonisation target – and make it look easy.
What would it take to spend less time preparing reports, and more time improving the numbers in them?
Every Hour Spent Checking Numbers Is an Hour Not Spent Cutting Carbon
Let’s start with the data. Many investors are sitting on sustainability information that’s technically complete, but not all that useful. It lives in different systems, gets pulled for one report but not another, and often ends up feeling inconsistent – even when it’s describing the same fund. That’s a problem. Because if the numbers don’t feel reliable, no one wants to use them. And if every investor request means re-checking a spreadsheet or explaining why metrics don’t line up between frameworks, trust in the whole process starts to wear thin.
You want to spend more time on action, not on copy-pasting spreadsheets or double-checking numbers.
The problem often stems from siloed data and outdated processes. Some have invested heavily in sustainability tools, but use them more as storage than strategy support. Data should work for you, not just sit there. That means confidence in its accuracy, yes, but also confidence in what it enables: faster reporting, cleaner exports, clearer trends, and actionable outputs. Not just a database, but a living source of truth.
But better data alone isn’t enough.
The Assurance Engine: Reliable, Repeatable, Audit-Ready
Data needs to be part of a process that holds together under pressure – where ownership is clear, reviews stay on schedule, and the strategy aligns with business goals. With the right structure in place, reporting stops being a bottleneck and starts enabling action.
With a robust reporting process in place, frameworks align more naturally, investor disclosures feel less like a scramble, and third-party reviews don’t derail progress. Your teams aren’t stuck fixing mismatched metrics between reports. Instead, they’re freed up to focus on what matters: planning and delivering decarbonisation across your portfolio.
This process should be designed to scale and adapt as your ambitions grow. So when regulations shift or your portfolio expands, you’re ready to respond without rebuilding the process from scratch.
We help design sustainability and carbon reporting processes that aren’t just functional, but actionable. You get structured workflows with clear ownership, documentation that supports third-party reviews, and a repeatable way of working that scales as your portfolio grows. The process helps your team define ownership, review data efficiently, and align reporting with your current structures.
With EVORA’s team of experts, you get a practical setup that your internal teams and auditors can rely on – without overspending on the process.

Whether you’re setting portfolio-wide targets, aligning with emerging assurance standards, or working across jurisdictions with varying requirements, we build a strategy that balances ambition with practical delivery.

Decarbonisation shouldn’t be held back by clunky processes. When your data is consistent, your tools are working for you, and your reporting setup is built with purpose, your team can focus on what actually moves the needle: cutting emissions, hitting targets, creating value.
