Applications

The following table describes the use case applications and questionnaires.

Application	Description
Contacts	Allows you to document information about any users that will be involved in the materiality assessment and metric gathering process, such as internal and external stakeholders, leadership members, and metric providers.
Double Materiality Calculator	If you are using ESRS, allows you to collect stakeholder views on both financial and impact materiality.
Materiality Assessment Campaign	Allows you to collect stakeholders' and leadership views on the material topics. This application also enables you to capture the organization's overall view of the material topics as well as an overall view for each region and country.
Material Topic Repository	Aggregates all of the individual responses for each material topic and provides a weighting. This application is automatically populated by a data feed and used to generate a heat map of topic responses, that can be viewed in the Data Gathering Program > Monitor Performance tab > Materiality Topics for Management tab.

Personas and Access Roles

The following table describes the 2 main personas that the use case was designed for.

Persona	Description
ESG Administrators	Users responsible for the set up and day to day management of the ESG solution. These tasks include replicating the organization structure within the solution, setting up the users, making the required metrics available to the organization for collection, and sending out ad-hoc materiality assessments.
ESG Executives	Executives with responsibility for ESG and sustainability. Their focus is the reports that can be created from the ESG solution. These users use information obtained from the materiality assessment to decide which standards are most appropriate for the organization to use for ESG reporting. They can then use the reports to see how well the organization is tracking against its metric threshold targets at the individual facility, business unit, division, country, region, and overall organization levels.
