Take control of your CSRD compliance & ESG data transparency

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is reshaping how companies disclose Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data. As one of the EU’s most significant sustainability regulations, it establishes a standardised framework to ensure reporting is accurate, comparable, and reliable across industries and geographies.

For companies operating in the EU or with significant business in the region, CSRD is now a requirement. NQC’s supply chain risk management platform, SUPPLIERASSURANCE, helps you collect, structure, and report ESG data with confidence, ensuring traceability across complex supply chains and meeting EU compliance demands with clarity and control.

The CSRD sets legally binding rules for sustainability reporting. It defines which companies must comply, what information must be disclosed, and how data must be presented. The FAQs below explain the scope, requirements, and practical steps for preparing your organisation.
