The Compass Assessment for Companies adds a fifth “direction” to the analysis: INTEGRATION
Business Integration = to what extent the company has adopted a
whole-system approach to sustainability, vertically and horizontally
The Business Integration element of the
Compass Assessment includes ...
•
Extended product responsibility
•
Engaged corporate citizenship
•
Adoption and use of a lifecycle
perspective
•
Customer / consumer engagement
•
Evidence that sustainability is
embedded in top management and in
company core values

The Compass Assessment is built on AtKisson’s widely adopted platform for CSR and sustainability
What the assessment delivers:
•
•
•
•
Clear feedback on where your company
stands, relative to sustainability goals, and
relative to other similar companies
Overall ranking scores on an intuitive and
transparent 100-point scale (where 100 =
“perfect” and 0 = “nothing is happening”)
Detailed backing information on individual
parameter scores, and the rationale /
analysis behind those scores
Prioritized recommendations for areas
where performance can be improved and
risks minimized, in an integrated fashion

The Compass Assessment was developed for
harmonization with the Global Reporting Initiative,
The Natural Step, ISO26000, and other frameworks

Companies can be assessed externally (public information) and internally (non-public information)
The Compass Assessment can reveal differences between how a company
sees itself — and how it is seen by others
© 2010 AtKisson Inc.
Internal View – Using All Available Information
An internal review
shows some strengths
and reflects the actual
status of business
commitment to
sustainability
External View – Using Public Information Only
An external review
reveals what the same
company looks like to
consumers, investors,
activists etc. who only
have access to public
information
www.AtKisson.com
We assess your GOALS AND POLICIES and your PROGRESS REPORTING against sustainability standards
Sample of final scoring worksheet for “Nature” (illustration only)
Shows absolute sustainability goal / performance standard and company’s performance
© AtKisson Inc.
After extensive review, our analysts assign scores based on a 0-3 scale where 0 = No evidence of activity,
3 = Activity fully aligned (with widely acknowledged ultimate sustainability standards). The accompanying report
explains the rationale for each score and compares the most important findings with best-practice performers.

The Compass Assessment helps you set your course for sustainability — and accelerate your progress
Benefits
•
Get a clear view of your sustainability reality
from an objective, outside perspective
•
Help put everyone on the same page by showing
them where the company stands, and where it
needs to be heading in sustainability terms
•
Learn how consumers see your company
compared to how you see it — and gain insights
into what consumers might want to know
•
Clarify and sharpen strategy, by focusing on those
areas most in need of improvement and most
likely to produce sustainability ROI
•
Set performance benchmarks in place so that
targets can be set, an improvement can be
monitored and communicated
•
Find new pathways to competitive advantage in
comparison to market leaders, and in relation to
global sustainability risks and opportunities
© 2010 AtKisson Inc.
www.AtKisson.com
The Compass Assessment offers a high-return value proposition, with minimal disruption of your daily
work
What We Need from You to Perform the Assessment
External Assessment
• Nothing – we use only publicly available data
Internal Assessment
• Access to internal information and people to
interview (under strict confidentiality)
•
Your choice of other companies against which to
benchmark
•
Clarity from you on the purpose, target
audience, and desired impact of performing an
assessment
•
Willingness to consider assessment results
against absolute (not just comparative) standards
– that is, against a long-term sustainability
vision
