Additional Services

In addition to the core B4SI Framework, we offer an array of supporting additional services to enhance the use and alignment of our Framework within your social impact needs. Our parent company, SLR, also offers further support in the design, implementation, measurement, management, and assurance of organisation’s social impact programmes. We will work with our colleagues across both organisations to deliver on any bespoke requirements.

Data Assurance:

The assurance process helps companies ensure that their data gathered through the B4SI Framework is being correctly applied. This builds trust and confidence, in what companies of the Network are doing in society

B4SI for Effective Partnerships:

We work with you and your community partners to ensure cohesive impact reporting and strategy alignment. This service is available in some regions and is set to roll out globally within the year.

B4SI Social Impact Compass

Assess the maturity of your social impact strategy, bring structure to the ‘S’ in ESG and access actionable guidance to determine next steps.

We offer consultancy support to design and deliver guidance on the application of Impact Frameworks to your Impact measurement using our B4SI Impact Toolkit.

Regional Office Engagement:

Bespoke training:

We work with you to design training for your team, your stakeholders and partners that specifically supports the use of our Framework and Impact took kits.

Bespoke issue research and materiality:

"

In managing community involvement, we apply the same rigour as in other aspects of our business. This is why we use the B4SI Framework to measure our charitable contributions (cash, time and in kind) and ask B4SI to assure our use of the reporting methodology. It helps ensure we are reporting our charitable contributions accurately and provides learnings to continually improve management of our community investment.”

Alexis Steadman, Global Community Manager, RELX

"

The B4SI assurance process was thorough and enabled us to report our first year of data using the framework with confidence. The management report and subsequent dialogue with our account manager gave us clarity on how to expand and align our impact capture across our three strategic themes."
