Follow-up and appraisal

Follow-up and appraisal of planned activities aimed at improving the company’s performance should be in line with its stated objectives, targets and key indicators. Reporting on sustainable development should be conducted at regular intervals just as financial reporting, for instance. The purpose is to integrate sustainable development activities into the company’s normal operations and management processes.

The follow-up and appraisal phase allows the company’s management to assess the results of its sustainable development activities based on internal indicators formulated during the planning phase. The results should be incorporated into the reporting process.
