Corporate

Turn ESD, CSI and venture spend into suppliers your procurement team actually calls — with the audit trail already built.

The Challenge

Where programmes get stuck

Corporate ESD and CSI budgets are among the largest entrepreneurship investments in Africa — and among the hardest to defend. Verification agencies want evidence. Boards want returns. Integrated reports want stories with numbers in them. When the answer lives in a service provider’s PowerPoint, you’re negotiating, not presenting.

What We Help With

Solutions Compliance

Compliance
Verification & Audit Readiness

Every agreement, invoice and beneficiary record captured as it happens, so the audit becomes an export instead of a scramble.

Development
Supplier Development

Development paths designed around your actual supply-chain gaps so the programme graduates vendors, not alumni.

Reporting
Board & Integrated Reporting

Growth, jobs and procurement outcomes rolled up live for the board pack and integrated report presentation-ready, not reconstructed.

Typical outcomes

Impact

Anyone can publish an ESD scorecard. What matters is whether the numbers survive a verifier’s questions.

reconciliation

An Enterprise and Supplier Development (ESD) scorecard measures a company’s support for black-owned small businesses under B-BBEE. Self-published scores mean little without proof. Independent verification agents audit the data to stop fraud and ensure real economic impact.
