To navigate this rapidly evolving ESG landscape, businesses must adopt a strategic approach that includes system-based ESG data management, enhanced board oversight, innovation in products and services that incorporate ESG factors, and company-wide ESG engagement. LG CNS provides a one-stop service, from developing roadmaps and deploying ESG implementation frameworks to introducing and providing operational support for IT solutions for monitoring, ensuring an impactful and practical approach to ESG adoption and integration.
ESG Strategy and Management Framework
For tailored ESG management, we analyze diagnostic ESG items based on global initiative requirements and benchmarking against industry leaders and competitors to identify key improvement areas.
To develop a company-wide ESG strategy framework, we set ESG objectives aligned with your corporate vision and review the entire schedule and roles and responsibilities (R&R), such as for an ESG Committee and evaluation and disclosure responses, to ensure integration with existing operations. In addition, we establish a department-level monitoring system for ESG indicators and tasks, allowing for continuous mid- to long-term review of the ESG roadmap and laying the foundation to become a leader in ESG.
ESG Disclosure and Evaluation Response
We facilitate ESG performance disclosure that complies with various standards, including GRI, ISSB, and ESRS, and by deploying customized indicator management systems for each client and industry, we provide a solid foundation to meet global market demands, from the EU to the US. Specifically, we analyze mandatory and voluntary disclosure requirements along with internal and external evaluation criteria, and define data elements, including definitions, formats, responsible departments, sources, and aggregation cycles, to deploy a systematic indicator management system that integrates previously Excel-managed data into a single platform.
Climate Change Response Strategy
In response to the increasingly sophisticated stakeholder demands regarding carbon neutrality, we offer comprehensive support from developing carbon neutrality strategies and preparing TCFD reports to measuring product carbon footprints. Specifically, we support the entire process, from current status assessments and BAU(Business As Usual) calculations to action planning and roadmap development, for the development and review of carbon neutrality strategies, while evaluating transition and physical risks in financial terms to determine their fiscal impact for TCFD disclosures. Moreover, by defining organizational boundaries and monitoring greenhouse gas reduction initiatives, we establish an advanced emissions management framework and develop a product carbon footprint calculation system to meet diverse requirements.
Supply Chain ESG Risk Management
To comply with EU supply chain due diligence regulations and manage Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions, we establish ESG and human rights risk assessment and management frameworks—both general and industry-specific—and develop roadmaps based on the scale, industry distribution, and regional characteristics of all suppliers. Our service covers the entire deployment process, from defining evaluation criteria and operational policies to facilitating supplier self-assessment questionnaires (SAQ), setting improvement targets, and monitoring corrective actions, while enhancing the overall sustainability of the business value chain by introducing IT systems for efficient ESG risk management among suppliers.

The most important factors are improving operational efficiency and establishing a real-time response system. An integrated monitoring setup should provide a consolidated view of key safety and environmental conditions across the entire site. The system must detect anomalies in real time using video feeds, monitoring sensors, disaster detection systems and administrator inputs, and automatically provide appropriate dashboards and response information based on the level of risk: normal, caution, high alert or critical. It is also essential to unify dispersed monitoring systems into a single integrated architecture that enables the immediate recognition of and response to on-site incidents.
