Who needs to complete a CSRD readiness assessment?

Companies in scope under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) — large EU companies with 500+ employees from 2024, all large undertakings with 250+ employees from FY2025, listed SMEs from FY2026, and non-EU companies with €150 million+ EU revenue from 2028. Note: the 2026 Omnibus Directive (2026/470) raises the employee threshold to 1,000 for most new filers — check whether your company is still in scope before starting preparation.

What does the CSRD Readiness Checker measure?

The checker scores your organisation across six pillars: data infrastructure, GHG accounting (Scopes 1–3), framework coverage (ESRS, GRI, TCFD, ISSB, CDP), governance and controls, supplier engagement, and direct CSRD preparedness. Each pillar is weighted by its relative importance to a complete CSRD submission.

What score do I need to be CSRD-ready?

A score of 76 or above indicates Advanced readiness. Scores of 56–75 are Progressing, 31–55 are Getting Started, and below 31 is Not Ready. Most organisations beginning their CSRD journey score between 30 and 55.

Is the CSRD Readiness Checker free?

Yes — completely free, no account required. Answer 12 multiple-choice questions in about 5 minutes and receive a personalised recommendations report by email.

What is the difference between a CSRD readiness assessment and a Double Materiality Assessment?

A CSRD readiness assessment evaluates your internal capabilities and processes needed to support CSRD reporting. A Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) is a mandatory CSRD step that identifies which sustainability topics are material to your organisation. Both are required well before your first CSRD submission.

Who is this for?
