Standing up for sustainable impact
True to the company’s values, HP knows that making a sustainable impact isn’t just the right thing to do. It also serves as a key differentiator for customers and investors who are rewarding companies with purpose-driven cultures focused on creating long-term value – whether it’s driving the circular economy, advancing diversity or strengthening communities.
Communicating value
The challenge
Flag began working with HP in 2017. The goal was to create a simple, go-to resource for sustainability programmes, which also communicated HP’s leadership position on sustainability. The report had to be robust while reflecting the evolution of HP’s sustainability work.
Creating positive change
The process
HP’s successful approach is based on collaboration and coordination with a large number of internal experts across the business. We facilitate and attend content interviews over weeks, progressively updating the narrative with key messages and detailed input from the experts.
We provide consultancy, content planning and writing support to help the company continuously enhance its reporting. In 2019, for example, we helped implement a revised structure that streamlines the reporting and brings HP’s circular economy thinking to the foreground.
Successful delivery
The solution
HP’s 2019 Sustainable Impact Report comprises an accessible, visual executive summary and a full, mainly text-based, data-driven report. The full report of 130 pages provides comprehensive disclosure informed by the SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board) and GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) sustainability frameworks.
In 2019, we also worked with HP to help deliver its inaugural Human Rights Progress Report.
