    Transformation through technology

    adesso accompanies you on the way to becoming a sustainable insurer

    Our world is increasingly characterized by environmentally conscious thinking. Companies are required to integrate sustainable practices in order to minimize their environmental impact. At the same time, this offers them a unique opportunity to gain a competitive advantage. By acting responsibly, they convince both their employees and their customers.

    Regulatory requirements are aimed at integrating ESG criteria into business processes and taking sustainability aspects into account. With ESG reporting, companies also strengthen the trust of their stakeholders. Digitalization makes it possible to bundle all the necessary ESG data and keep an eye on it at all times. Innovative and sustainable software solutions can optimize resource consumption and thus contribute to combating climate change.

    adesso accompanies you on your path of transformation into a sustainable insurance company. With modern technology and comprehensive know-how, we support you in achieving your sustainability goals and positioning yourself on the market as a responsible, future-oriented company.

    Challenges and fields of action

    Insurers face four key challenges: The first is to develop a holistic sustainability strategy and anchor it in the corporate culture. This can only succeed if the sustainability goals and the company's own contribution are clear to employees and customers. Many IT departments are also not yet fully aware of their sustainability levers. They often focus on the difficult question of how to centralize and process the data required to meet reporting obligations.

    We have derived corresponding fields of action from this and developed the following solutions for sustainable insurers:

    Our innovative approaches for sustainable insurers:

    • Sustainability as part of corporate strategy and culture with the help of our Interaction Room

      Insurers need to integrate sustainability into their strategy and business models, not only to fulfill reporting obligations, but also to be competitive. This has an impact on their processes, products, services, IT and corporate culture. Their stakeholders expect them to know and manage the environmental and social impact of their actions. A successful sustainability transformation requires a holistic approach: Managers, in particular, play an important role in building bridges and promoting collaboration.

      adesso's "Interaction Room (IR) Sustainability" supports managers and teams in channeling the dynamics of sustainability projects and delivering results that can be implemented quickly. The Interaction Room offers a protected space in which shared insights can be gained and focus can be placed on the essentials. Interdisciplinary teams work on maps that compare the specific requirements of sustainability regulation, the market and the industry with their own ambitions and level of maturity. The Interaction Room leads to harmonized expectations, leaner implementation projects and faster target achievement.
