The Summary tab offers an overview of how an issue is ranked within your matrix. In addition, it offers a detailed insight as to how stakeholders ranked the issues; how the individual Datamaran topics are contributing to these rankings and how the issues are reflected through a Double Materiality perspective.
The Summary tab consists of three parts:
The issue ranking, issue composition and Double Materiality
The Issue ranking
The Issue ranking details where the issue is in your matrix and whether it is a low, medium or high priority issue. It also shows where the various issues are ranked, vis-a-vis your company and by the different stakeholders; allowing you a quick and direct comparison of the two.
The Issue composition
The Issue composition is a part of the summary tab that offers you further insight regarding the issue's scoring on the matrix and the performance of each individual topic within the issue.
Within the Breakdown by stakeholders, you are able to see the weighted contribution of each stakeholder group to the stakeholders' issue ranking.
The Topic contribution chart allows you to see how much each Datamaran topic is contributing to the overall issue. This takes into account the stakeholders that are represented by company reports, regulations, initiatives and online media.
Within the Issue composition, and for each of the stakeholders, you can select any of the stakeholder groups or use the drop-down menu in order to view how the topics are contributing.
The final area of the Summary tab is a view of how the issue is appearing within the Double Materiality graph. This shows both how likely the issue is to materially affect your business (this is represented by the financial score) and how likely your business is to materially affect an area. This is scored on a 0-1 basis and from a scale ranging from Low- to High +.
