beMatrix, a leading provider of modular aluminum frames for temporary constructions, faced the overwhelming challenge of completing their Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) as part of their CSRD reporting. With Karomia’s step-by-step platform, they streamlined the process, saving significant time and effort while achieving compliance with precision.
beMatrix designs, manufactures, and sells modular aluminum frames used for exhibition stands, congress walls, and pop-up events. Emma Bernolet, ESG Specialist at beMatrix, was responsible for conducting the company’s DMA, a critical component of their CSRD reporting.
"Karomia made the challenging task of our Double Materiality Assessment manageable and efficient, saving us time and resources while ensuring everything was done right."
Like many companies, beMatrix found the Double Materiality Assessment overwhelming. The process required deep stakeholder engagement, comprehensive data collection, and precise analysis.
Emma initially planned to tackle the DMA manually using Excel and custom surveys. However, it quickly became evident that the effort involved was far too time-intensive. Completing the DMA manually would require significant resources, and Emma realized this was only one part of the larger CSRD compliance process. This inefficiency led her to seek a better solution.
That’s when Karomia stepped in with its AI-driven platform tailored for CSRD reporting and Double Materiality Assessments. Karomia provided a structured, step-by-step approach to guide Emma through the process, allowing her to:
• Engage stakeholders seamlessly: With Karomia, beMatrix involved 125 stakeholders and collected 1,866 responses.
• Identify material topics efficiently: In just three months, the platform helped identify 7 key material topics.
• Leverage automation: Karomia automatically generated surveys with relevant questions and calculated results, reducing manual workload.
1. Ownership:
Emma became the owner of the DMA process, gaining in-depth knowledge for future assessments. This long-term understanding ensures that beMatrix can confidently repeat the process as needed.
2. Efficiency:
Karomia’s platform allowed Emma to focus on strategic decisions rather than manual tasks. The automated identification of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) saved hours of research. Additionally, survey inputs were processed automatically, further streamlining the workflow.
3. Documentation:
Karomia’s system ensured thorough documentation of the entire process, meeting compliance requirements from the very first stage. This detailed record will be invaluable for audits and future reporting.
