Industry Recognition
ERM has partnered with thought leadership
organizations to leverage best practices
across companies and sectors.
For example, ERM was the only consultancy
engaged by the Task Force on Climate-
Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Our
role was to advise on scenario options for
physical climate change, and policy- and
technology-driven market change, which
companies should use to determine financial
impact.
Our Understanding of XXX Request
We are excited to partner with you to take another look at climate risks and opportunities to drive a systematic and business aligned
approach to resilience. Based on our extensive experience working with clients to identify climate risks and opportunities and their impacts to
their business and value chain around the world, we support Walmart’s approach and believe we are the right answer.
Our understanding is that you have a need to create a modelling tool that allows you to do “what if” analyses to determine, based on various
inputs and variables, the potential exposure to your business from climate change for 2030 and 2050 scenarios. Through our work
using ERM’s TORCH (Threats, Opportunities, and Risks from Climate Change) tool over the last decade, we understand how to drive
business results using a climate impact model. In this instance, the model will be less focused on precision but will provide a dynamic tool
that uses different variables for inputs and outputs. We understand that XXX is seeking a partner to:

Create a Manage this Build test,

climate project and deliver, and
impact model gather data analyze the
sources results

The ultimate objectives are to transform data into insights and drive business strategy.

Since XXX is a leader on climate change, applying the TCFD standards for scenario analysis represents a natural progression of moving
beyond setting science-based targets to also thinking more holistically about climate risks and opportunities. This project will position XXX to
better understand climate-related risks and opportunities and build stakeholder engagement to focus on the financial implications.

 ERM Sustainability Report 2019: from the WHAT to
the HOW: operationalizing sustainability

There is a growing sense of urgency around the sustainability challenges

facing the world and a recognition that while many of the solutions are within
reach, there is a need to increase the pace and scale of change.
This has led to a shift in the conversation from “what” needs to be done to “how” we can
deliver the change that is required.

ERM’s 2019 Sustainability Report sets out clear examples of how we are helping clients respond
to these challenges, in ways that create business value.
