Temporary Management and Project Management of Sustainability

Writing a Budget or starting a project aimed at sustainable transition in the company? The decision always remains with the entrepreneur or the administrators.

However, these figures do not always have the knowledge or experience necessary to conduct this process, which requires specific skills. With our Temporary Management service we can support the governing bodies that wish to start a sustainability path with a gradual approach; at the same time we pursue the objective of training an internal Sustainability Manager so that he or she becomes competent and autonomous with respect to the topic and practices of sustainability.

The first step in improving your performance is to identify the need for improvement.

Temporary Management and Project Management of Sustainability According To Sapiens

“Hiring experienced professionals for a limited period with the aim of leading and implementing sustainability strategies or projects within an organization”.

“I am bringing in a competent external manager who will start a sustainable transition process, prepare internal resources to make them autonomous, and assist in setting up data collection and in the implementation of targeted sustainability projects”.

Data driven project

The basis of every efficient project is a timely collection of data. This represents one of the main difficulties for companies in transition towards sustainable development.

Whether you need to respond to requests for environmental or social disclosures from suppliers, customers and other stakeholders, or you want to set up a good sustainability project, it is essential to generate good data collection.

Sapiens supports companies in setting up tools for collecting and managing data related to sustainability, so that the data obtained is always available, useful and updated.

Management System

Most companies have one or more management systems (Quality, Environment, Safety, Legality or other).

To enhance every action and every investment aimed at sustainable transition, it is necessary to implement an integrated management system and good project management.

Sapiens, through this consultancy service, supports companies in preparing and starting the procedure by providing all the elements necessary to make the company’s commitment to sustainability work at its best.

GOVERNANCE

Governance is one of the most important and least understood aspects of sustainability.

Only by assigning the appropriate responsibilities, by setting up clear decision-making processes and through an efficient transmission of information, is it possible to give the transition the right impetus so that sustainability can become a driver and a real strategic asset.

Sapiens helps companies to prepare the right governance structure, both from the point of view of the system architecture and in the practices of involving the necessary people.

Why Rely on a Temporary Manager and a Sustainability Project Manger with Sapiens

Sapiens Temporary Management is the concrete and immediate answer to a double need.

To communicate and report sustainability, it is necessary to refer to a rather complex regulatory framework that leads the company to examine and answer a series of questions necessary to provide a complete picture of its results.

On the other hand, sustainability arises from a particular desire for transformation, often purely personal or of a group leading an organization.

“Making sustainability” and “Communicating sustainability” are therefore two aspects that must proceed in a coherent and coordinated manner. The two actions are closely linked and it is extremely easy to fall into the temptation of confusing the two concepts. For this reason, it is essential to “start off on the right foot”, initiating policies and actions in the company that respond, on the one hand, to one’s own personal motivational drive and, on the other, that are based on a solid competence that complies with the substantial structure of data points required by the legislation.
