Establishment and integration of sustainability management

Brugger + Partner supported maxon in systematically developing and expanding its sustainability management. As an initial step, we worked together to carry out a materiality assessment. Under our guidance, the process clarified the key social and environmental issues in maxon's business model and initiated a deeper engagement with sustainability. We conducted interviews with external stakeholders and held multiple discussions with the group management on the topics, steps, and outcomes. We supplemented this foundation with an analysis of the company's current state. The results served two purposes: first, to create a comprehensive roadmap of measures in workshops with internal experts; and second, to enable the development of maxon's first sustainability report in accordance with the GRI standards (Foundation 2021). As part of the reporting process, Brugger + Partner also supported the development of relevant sustainability metrics across multiple locations, including greenhouse gas accounting. We also acted as a coach for maxon, addressing various internally and externally driven questions related to sustainability management.
