We’re excited to announce that the updated 2025 CDP Framework is now available in Envizi as a managed framework.

Customers subscribed to Envizi’s Sustainability Reporting Manager (SRM) can now request the activation of a sector-specific questionnaire from the CDP 2025 Framework in their SRM ESG Framework Library, depending on their company’s business activities and operational profile, including the following: 

Sector or Initiative  Bussiness Activities included 
High Impact  Sectors Agriculture commodities, Cement, Capital goods, Chemicals, Construction, Coal, Electric utilities, Food, beverage & tobacco, Financial services, Mining-Biodiversity, Metals & mining, Oil & Gas, Paper and forestry, Real estate, Steel, Transport OEMs, Engine Part Manufacturers, Transport services. 
Low Impact Sectors All other business activities not listed above are classified by CDP as low-impact sectors and are assigned a general questionnaire accordingly.
Supply Chain Set of questions for CDP Supply Chain participants
Re100 Set of questions for RE100  participants
SME Questionnaire for Small and Medium Enterprises

To review the full list of activities, you can consult the Activity Classification System Table in pg. 6 of this document 

SRM supports you to orchestrate your CDP 2025 disclosure with ease with the following features: 

  • Embedded CDP  questions  

  • Response fields so CDP answers can be entered directly into Envizi 

  • Automated workflows to send out requests for information and have other members of the organization directly input responses 

  • Privacy and security settings to set and manage user roles (eg reviewer or approver) and restrict access to questions and responses as required 

  • Functionality to capture supporting documentation at the question level 

  • Extract your responses in a range of file formats 

The CDP 2025 response process in Envizi works in a similar way to the support Envizi provides for CSRD reporting.  Check out this tour to see that process in action here → https://www.ibm.com/resources/digital-innovation/demos/envizi-esg-csrd 

 

Use Envizi to get your ESG data in order 

The SRM functionality enhances the core capabilities of Envizi, which is the capture and management of the data you need to prepare these responses in the first place!
