Finding what matters across your organisation and value chain

We combine traditional risk screening with climate-scenario analysis to build a complete picture of climate-related risks and opportunities. Traditional exposure screening highlights the obvious, granular risks linked to specific sites, assets, operations, and suppliers. Scenario-based assessment then tests how your organisation, mandate, and funding model perform under different climate futures—surfacing cumulative and system-level impacts that don't show up in historic data.

We've refined this integrated approach through work with asset managers, corporates across multiple sectors, and public sector entities with both policy and service-delivery mandates. For the most material items, it provides the foundation for financial quantification where that level of analysis is needed.

This work includes:

• Mapping your organisation, mandate, and value chain to understand where physical, transition, and systemic climate factors could create material risks and opportunities

• Building inventories at portfolio, asset, site, and value-chain level, informed by both traditional and scenario-based analysis

• Prioritising what matters most over short, medium, and long-term horizons

• Aligning outputs with NZ CS1–3, TCFD, and ISSB S2, including adapted approaches for public sector entities

• Providing structured inputs for financial quantification and transition planning

• An integrated climate and nature risks framework that draws on established frameworks, including TNFD and IPBES.

Stress-testing what you do under different climate futures

We develop sectoral and organisation-level climate scenarios using a structured, driver-based approach. Where appropriate, we anchor these in relevant global, national, and sectoral pathways, then adapt them to your mandate, context, value chain, and operating environment. The result is a small set of internally consistent, decision-ready scenarios that are tailored to your organisation while remaining comparable with those used by sector peers and expected under disclosure regimes.

These scenarios are used to:

• Identify and prioritise specific climate-related risks and opportunities

• Stress-test what you do and hope to achieve—whether through your business model, portfolio, strategy, or services—under different climate futures

• Inform investment and portfolio screening, asset selection, and divestment decisions

• Provide structured inputs into financial impact and valuation modelling

• Underpin climate-related disclosures, transition planning, and strategic planning—whether you're disclosing or seeking to improve your climate risk management

Transparent models that show climate impact in dollars—and build your team's capability

We focus financial quantification on the climate-related risks and opportunities that matter most, using methods proportionate to your data, uncertainty, and decision needs. Drawing on our work with the XRB on emerging financial-quantification guidance and our ISO-aligned five-stage approach, we link scenario outcomes and risk assessments to clear, defensible estimates of potential financial impacts under different climate futures.

The emphasis is on transparency and usability—models your team can understand, challenge, and run themselves—so the work empowers your organisation rather than creating ongoing dependency.

This work includes:

• Selecting priority climate-related risks and opportunities for quantification based on earlier scenario and risk-assessment work

• Choosing proportionate methods (qualitative, semi-quantitative, or quantitative; bottom-up or top-down) that reflect available data and practical constraints

• Estimating potential impacts on revenue, operating costs, CAPEX/OPEX, asset values, productivity, or funding under relevant scenarios and time horizons

• Assessing the effect of proposed response measures, so you understand both gross and net financial impacts

• Developing transparent, auditable Excel-based tools and documenting assumptions so your team can update and integrate the models into existing processes

From emissions targets to adaptation strategies

We help you turn climate insights into practical transition plans that fit how your organisation actually works. Building on earlier scenario, risk, and financial-impact work, we support you to choose and sequence emissions-reduction and adaptation measures, set targets and metrics, and embed these into strategy, governance, risk, and investment processes. The focus is on plans that are credible, workable, and aligned with your mandate, regulatory settings, and wider system responsibilities.

This work includes:

• Clarifying your transition objectives and constraints, and defining the scope of your transition plan

• Designing emissions-reduction pathways, including interim targets and metrics consistent with relevant climate scenarios and policy settings

• Developing adaptation and resilience strategies for operations, assets, supply chains, and workforce

• Evaluating response options against criteria such as effectiveness, cost, timing, feasibility, and co-benefits

• Integrating Te Tiriti o Waitangi obligations and equity considerations where applicable

• Translating preferred options into an implementable roadmap with clear roles, timing, and decision points

Building climate into your existing frameworks—not creating silos

We design the full architecture your organisation needs to manage climate risk: the overarching framework, the specific processes and methodologies required to run each stage, and the tools used to perform the technical work. Our approach draws on our work supporting the XRB in designing NZ CS1–3 and related guidance, and on an ISO-aligned five-stage climate-risk and opportunity management process that uses climate-specific methods where conventional approaches fall short.

We also design practical tools that make climate governance performance visible to boards, risk committees, and management—translating roles, processes, and requirements into clear views of maturity, responsibilities, control effectiveness, and system readiness.

This work includes:

• Integrating climate risk into existing strategic and enterprise risk and control frameworks (SRM, ERM)

• Designing governance, monitoring, escalation, and reporting arrangements for climate risk

• Climate-governance maturity frameworks and indicators aligned with applicable standards (NZ CS1–3, TCFD, ISSB/AASB)

• Taking a programme management approach to track ownership, controls, actions, and milestones

• Development of dashboards that show progress against transition-plan milestones, risk indicators, and GHG emissions

• Building internal capability so climate-risk insights are consistent, repeatable, and decision-useful

Getting disclosures right—and building repeatable processes

We help organisations turn climate-risk, scenario, and transition-planning work into clear, coherent climate-related disclosures that meet regulatory expectations and stand up to scrutiny. Our experience includes supporting the XRB in developing NZ CS1–3 and related guidance, and preparing or reviewing disclosures for entities across corporate, investment, and public sectors.

This work includes:

• Mapping your existing climate work to NZ CS1–3, TCFD, ISSB S2, and jurisdiction-relevant requirements, and drafting or co-drafting disclosures

• Independently reviewing draft or published disclosures, including gap analysis, consistency checks, and identification of potential assurance or regulatory-risk issues

• Designing repeatable disclosure processes—roles, timelines, evidence requirements, and documentation—so future reporting cycles are more efficient

• Developing practical tools such as disclosure maps, risk and opportunity inventories, and scenario/metrics tables that link to your underlying systems

• Supporting preparers and governance bodies to understand expectations, avoid common pitfalls, and communicate uncertainty transparently
