Webinar: Double Materiality: A Tool for Unlocking Strategic Business Value

As sustainability reporting becomes more complex and standardized, Double Materiality Assessments (DMA) are increasingly vital for businesses. With regulations like the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) mandating double materiality reporting, and voluntary standards like GRI also adopting this approach, DMAs are no longer just a best practice—they’re a requirement.

In this webinar, 3R experts demonstrate how DMAs can not only ensure compliance but also provide a strategic framework for identifying key sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities. You’ll also hear directly from Barton Malow, a leading construction firm, about their experience completing a DMA with 3R. The panel will offer real-world insight into what it’s like to conduct a DMA from the ground up, including lessons learned, internal collaboration, and how the assessment is informing their understanding of key sustainability priorities.
