From compliance to strategic steering tool
Whether you are reporting for investors, financiers, stakeholders or internal sustainability goals: a solid ESG report gives you insight into where you stand and where you want to go. We guide the entire process, from materiality analysis and data collection to reporting and KPIs.

Materiality analysis: focus on what matters
An effective ESG report starts with identifying the right topics. Which sustainability themes have the greatest impact on your organisation and which topics matter most to your stakeholders?
Drawing on our experience, workshops and smart tooling, we quickly bring focus to the process. Starting from a broad longlist, we work towards the ESG themes that align with your strategy, portfolio and reporting needs.
You can start small with a single topic such as carbon, or set up a broader ESG approach straight away. You decide the route; we help you make the right choices.
Efficient data collection
Once the relevant ESG themes have been established, the biggest challenge for many organisations begins: collecting reliable data.
Using the Green Buildings Tool and our years of experience in real estate data, we collect information efficiently and in a structured way. Our tooling enables us to unlock and analyse building data at scale, making even large real estate portfolios manageable and transparent.
We know which data is available across different departments and help coordinate between stakeholders, creating a solid data foundation for both reporting and decision-making.
An ESG report that goes beyond compliance
An ESG report should not only meet stakeholder expectations, but above all deliver actionable insights. That is why we do not produce a standard report, but one that is tailored to your organisation, portfolio and objectives.
From KPIs and targets to risks, opportunities and progress: we ensure the report becomes a practical tool for decision-making and sustainable growth.
The route to your sustainability ambitions
An ESG report is not an endpoint, but a starting point for further sustainability improvements. By reporting periodically, you gain insight into trends, progress and opportunities for improvement, making ESG an integral part of your operations.
We help organisations translate outcomes into concrete actions, targets and investment decisions, turning an ESG report into one of the most important steering tools for your organisation.
At Van der Vorm Vastgoed, ESG has become a key part of strategic decision-making.

Frequently asked questions about ESG reporting
What is an ESG report?
An ESG report provides insight into an organisation’s performance across Environmental, Social and Governance dimensions. A professional ESG report gives you a clear picture of the most important sustainability topics for your organisation.
Is ESG reporting mandatory?
At present, ESG reporting is not legally required for every organisation in the Netherlands, but the requirements around sustainability reporting are continuously being developed and tightened.
Regardless of legislation, investors, financiers and other stakeholders are increasingly asking for insight into ESG performance. That is why many organisations choose to start with ESG reporting before any obligation comes into force. This not only provides transparency, but also supports well-informed and future-proof decision-making.
What is a materiality analysis?
A materiality analysis is the process by which you determine, together with your stakeholders, which sustainability topics are most relevant to your organisation. We start with a longlist and work towards a shortlist of topics that are genuinely material to your operations and strategy.
What are the steps involved in producing an ESG report?
An ESG report starts with a materiality analysis: which topics are most relevant to the organisation? Once established, all data is collected from the relevant stakeholders and departments. The next step is drawing up the report itself. You can also set KPIs to track data over time and establish concrete targets.
At CFP, an ESG report is always bespoke. We structure the report to provide the insight you need and to serve as a steering tool for the future.
