Why do CSR?
Increasingly demanding tenders
Since 2019, the European Green Deal supports global efforts for a greener future. One of its main objectives is toachieve carbon neutrality in Europe by 2050.
This ambitious plan involves profound changes in all sectors. For businesses, it provides for specific measures, such as taxing the most polluting companies. Engaging in a social responsibility (CSR) approach, even as a small business or SME, contributes positively to these resolutions and contributes to the better life of all.
This is why more and more companies are including a mandatory CSR criterion in their tenders. Many B2B tenders include a CSR weighting ranging from 10 to 20% of the final grade.
Without a structured CSR approach, an SME can therefore be excluded from the application phase, regardless of its price or the quality of its offer.
From constraint to opportunity
— Growth: access to new markets.
— Performance: savings (energy, logistics, turnover).
— Customer attraction: transparency and trust strengthened.
Concrete example: invest less than €1000 to formalize your CSR strategy. Result: immediate access to strategic tenders, with a potential ROI of several tens of thousands of euros.
CSR strategy and ESG strategy: what is the difference?
The CSR strategy is based on a voluntary approach, adapted to the size and resources of the company.
The ESG strategy is more restrictive: it is part of a regulatory framework (CSRD, taxonomy, ESRS) and primarily concerns large companies.
So, for VSEs/SMEs, the challenge is to anticipate. Formalizing a CSR approach today makes it possible to prepare the ground for future ESG requirements..
How to structure your CSR strategy?
1. Mapping its challenges
Identify the social, environmental and governance impacts related to its activity.
2. Define a realistic action plan
Focus on concrete and measurable actions (energy, mobility, HR, responsible purchasing, etc.).
3. Follow up and formalize your commitments
Clear reporting, even simple, makes it possible to promote your actions with customers, partners and contractors.
