      Creating a Double Materiality Analysis

      [Double Materiality module]

      Datamaran’s automated Double Materiality solution helps organizations identify ESG issues that matter most to their business. It enables you to evaluate impacts, risks, and opportunities (IROs) through a fully customized, data-driven approach—supported by AI-generated mentions across company disclosures.

      This assessment provides a comprehensive view of materiality across your company’s operations, as well as its upstream and downstream value chains.

      Setting up your Double Materiality analysis

      1. From the main menu, go to the Double Materiality module.

      2. Enter a name for your analysis in the Analysis name field.

      3. Define the scope of your value chain by populating the parameters for each stream.

          • You can exclude any streams not relevant to your analysis.

      4. (Optional) Add additional stakeholders to each stream (up to 7 custom data sets) by clicking the + icon on either the Financial or Impact axis.

      5. Add peers to your analysis (recommended for stronger benchmarking).

      6. Assign weights to your value chain streams:

        • Apply the same weight to all streams, or

        • Allocate different predefined weights to each stream.
