Identifying Evaluation Signals: Short-term IROs

[Double Materiality module]

Datamaran’s DMA Evaluate provides a scalable, logic-based framework for reassessing Impact, Risk, and Opportunity (IRO) topics—streamlining the process while preserving analytical rigor.

As part of our recommended approach, we suggest using short-term IROs as key indicators for annual reassessment. These are by definition time-sensitive and should be reviewed at least annually to ensure they remain relevant and accurate for annual reporting.

How It Works in Your Double Materiality Assessment

In your latest Double Materiality assessment, within the IRO Hub, any topic that includes previously assessed short-term IROs will be flagged with a specific icon, helping you quickly identify where a review is warranted and where you and your SMEs might want to focus your efforts first.

Click View Details to open a quick reference guide that explains the meaning of each icon.

• Click on any topic to view its associated IROs.
• Where applicable, the short-term icon will also appear next to individual IROs, based on the most recent assessment data.

What You Should Do

• Review each flagged short-term IRO to determine if it still applies.
• Confirm the accuracy of the previous assessment.
• If needed, the analysis owner can:
  
  • Reassess the IRO

• • Assign the topic to an SME for reassessment
