Sustainability

From manual ESG data management to a structured system of governance, reporting and control

MESA gives the Sustainability team an integrated, AI-powered environment to coordinate data collection, materiality analysis, climate target monitoring and ESG disclosure — with automated workflows, full traceability and data as reliable as financial data.

Context

The real challenges facing the Sustainability team

In an accelerating regulatory context — CSRD, ESRS, CSDDD, EU Taxonomy — the Sustainability team must oversee data quality, coordinate different functions, manage the value chain and demonstrate consistency between stated commitments and actual performance

Without an integrated system, every cycle becomes a high-risk manual reconciliation exercise.

ESG data scattered across functions and disconnected systems

Manual collection, disconnected spreadsheets, a fragile system vulnerable to external assurance.

Static, non-integrated materiality analyses

Conducted only once, with no updates and no connection to strategy, risk management and planning.

Scope 3 emissions estimated roughly

Not traceable along the value chain, not integrable into reporting in a structured way.

A value chain that is opaque beyond the first tier

Supplier data fragmented across different functions, rarely integrated into a coherent assessment system.

Inconsistent disclosure across frameworks and recipients

CSRD, GRI, TCFD, SFDR, EU Taxonomy with non-harmonized collection logic; a concrete risk of inconsistencies between what is stated and what is real.

Risk of regulatory greenwashing

ESG claims not always backed by verifiable data, with growing exposure to the EU Green Claims Directive.

How MESA supports Sustainability

An integrated ESG governance cycle: from materiality to disclosure.

MESA structures the entire sustainability chain into a continuous and defensible process: every data point controlled, every commitment traceable.

MESA supports the double materiality analysis with digital stakeholder engagement workflows, structured surveys and ESRS-aligned outputs. Material topics are monitored over time and integrated into strategy and reporting cycles. AI supports the weighting of impacts and the consolidation of stakeholder inputs, reducing analysis time and increasing its defensibility.

  • Double materiality analysis with ESRS-ready documentation and integration into subsequent planning cycles
  • Science-based targets and Net-Zero pathway with AI-assisted what-if scenarios and contingency plans
  • Mapping of relevant frameworks — CSRD, GRI, TCFD, SFDR, EU Taxonomy — with harmonized data collection

MESA integrates ESG controls into operational workflows, ensuring traceability of commitments and alignment between ESG metrics and financial indicators. Carbon accounting is managed with recognized methodologies, tracked along the value chain and documented in an audit-ready way. AI agents automatically validate incoming ESG data, flagging anomalies and out-of-range values before they enter reporting.

  • ESG KPIs defined, monitored and linked to internal control workflows
  • Carbon accounting integrated into the reporting cycle with automatic AI validation of emissions data
  • Supplier ESG scoring with continuous monitoring, automatic alerts and traceability along the supply chain

MESA centralizes data collection in a single environment with guided workflows. The platform’s AI engine pre-fills regulatory templates based on the data already available, identifies inconsistencies between sections, flags missing disclosures and suggests narrative improvements consistent with ESRS and GRI standards. This is not simple automation: it is an agent that learns from previous cycles and improves output quality over time.

  • Collection workflows with responsibility assignment, progress tracking and automatic validations
  • AI agents that pre-fill templates, detect inconsistencies and automate repetitive activities — learning from previous cycles
  • AI agents that engage suppliers through digital questionnaires, monitor response times and manage reminders

MESA makes it possible to collect data once and reuse it across all frameworks and recipients. The Anti-Greenwashing module — supported by AI — systematically compares ESG claims against certified data, automatically flags inconsistencies and aligns every statement with the requirements of the EU Green Claims Directive before publication.

  • Collect once, report across CSRD, GRI, TCFD, SFDR, EU Taxonomy with no duplications
  • Document production in iXBRL format with natively integrated ESMA/ESEF compliance
  • Anti-greenwashing AI: automatic and continuous verification between public ESG claims and certified actual performance

Business Value

Where MESA generates value for the Sustainability team

MESA’s value for the Sustainability function takes shape in the transformation of ESG processes from manual, fragmented exercises into a structured, reliable and measurable system, in which every data point, decision and disclosure is traceable and defensible.

Use cases

Sustainability function activities supported by MESA

From materiality analysis to carbon accounting management, from supplier engagement to communication with rating agencies: these are the areas where MESA becomes part of the Sustainability team’s daily work.

CSRD & ESG Reporting

An integrated, AI-powered environment for the entire ESG reporting cycle: double materiality analysis, centralized data collection, Scope 1/2/3 carbon accounting, iXBRL production. AI automates repetitive activities, learns from previous cycles and reduces reporting times by up to 50%.

CSDDD & Supply Chain Due Diligence

AI agents that manage supplier engagement, the monitoring of ESG risk profiles and reminders. Automated scoring, alerts on critical changes and direct feeding of the CSDDD/ESRS sections of the sustainability report.

Transition Plan & Net Zero

AI-driven monitoring of emissions along the value chain and integration of climate KPIs into operational workflows. Net-Zero pathway with AI-assisted what-if scenarios: from a declarative document to an executable plan with owners, milestones and verifiable deadlines.

External Ratings & ESG Communication

Structured management of responses to ESG rating agencies from a single source of validated data. AI pre-fills rating questionnaires, tracks historical submissions and monitors how scores evolve. Anti-greenwashing AI checks the consistency between claims and actual performance.

Platform fit

MESA in the Sustainability function’s operating model

MESA does not replace existing systems: it integrates with the technology architecture in use, connecting the data sources that Finance, Operations and HR already oversee into a single ESG governance environment, powered by AI agents active on a continuous basis.

Integration with existing systems

Native connectors to ERP, finance and HR; ESG data aligned with financial and operational data without duplications.

No-code configuration, fast go-live

Workflows, monitoring and dashboards configurable independently. Typical go-live in less than 8 weeks.

Scalability as regulations evolve

Dynamic updates for new ESRS, obligations and frameworks. Automatic gap analysis for real-time monitoring of compliance status.

Enterprise security and data reliability

SOC II Type II, EU hosting, single tenant, SSO. A complete and tamper-proof audit trail to support external assurance processes.
