Structure your sustainability disclosure around the standard that is becoming the baseline for small and mid-market companies across Europe, and get the guidance to make it meaningful. The Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for SMEs (VSME) was developed to give smaller and midmarket companies a proportionate, credible way to disclose sustainability performance.
“We had Excel, multiple files, and many people involved. We needed a way to bring everything together and ensure quality in one place.”

How VSME Reporting Works: From Setup to Export-Ready Disclosures
Your customer success manager works with you to identify which VSME topics and disclosures apply to your business, ensuring your setup reflects your actual scope rather than a generic template. The platform is then configured around your applicable disclosures, with reporting templates tailored to your structure. Your team collects information through structured forms, with progress tracked and submissions reviewed before feeding your dashboards and export-ready output. As your reporting needs grow, whether adding GHG calculations, responding to customer requests, or preparing for CSRD, your setup scales with you on the same foundation.

Who is this solution for?
This solution is for any SME that reports or is planning to report under the VSME standard, whether the driver is requirements from customers in the value chain, investor expectations, or an ambition to get ahead of future obligations. It is designed for companies already receiving data requests from larger business partners, organisations that want to establish a structured sustainability process ahead of upcoming requirements, and companies preparing to eventually meet CSRD requirements in their own right. It is also relevant for those who want to start with VSME Basic and gradually scale to Comprehensive as reporting ambitions grow. If your sustainability data currently lives across spreadsheets, email threads, and disconnected systems, this solution brings it together in a single, traceable structure.
It is particularly well suited for SMEs with multiple sites or legal entities, distributed data ownership across teams and departments, or where sustainability data is currently managed across several systems without a consistent format or audit trail.
