MHA launches Activate to help businesses contribute to global sustainability
June 26th 2025MHA has announced the launch of Activate, a dedicated ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) assessment programme designed to help businesses identify, plan and take meaningful sustainability action.
Exclusive to MHA, Activate is a digital tool and consultancy-led process tailored for businesses that are either at the beginning of their ESG journey or looking to refresh and strengthen their current approach. Designed with practicality in mind, it delivers a structured, easy-to-follow ESG plan, backed by expert insight and ongoing support.
Through a set of intuitive questions, businesses are guided through a detailed assessment, prompting evidence-based answers that are aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
The programme is fully certified and compliant with international frameworks including the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), CSRD and EU Taxonomy. Whether a business is large or small, within scope of regulation or not, the assessment enables them to benchmark their current ESG position and plan next steps with clarity.
"What sets Activate apart is its simplicity and impact. ESG can seem overwhelming, especially for smaller businesses, but Activate breaks it down into achievable steps. Many businesses are already doing the right things – supporting their communities, cutting energy use, thinking about staff wellbeing – but they haven’t connected the dots. Activate helps them do just that, giving their efforts structure, direction and purpose. It’s all about making ESG meaningful and manageable"
The platform supports businesses in understanding their current ESG position, identifies strengths and gaps, and delivers a prioritised action plan. Importantly, MHA works directly with clients to build a robust ESG strategy that aligns with business goals, stakeholder expectations and reporting needs. Clients also benefit from ongoing support, with regular reviews recommended to ensure ESG efforts stay on track and aligned with current requirements and best practice.
Key benefits of Activate include:
- A clear, evidence-based understanding of ESG status.
- Practical, prioritised recommendations tailored to the business.
- An easy-to-follow implementation plan.
- Access to ESG specialists for additional support.
- Certified alignment with GRI, SDGs, CSRD and EU Taxonomy.
Suitable for businesses of any size, Activate also supports organisations looking to enhance their appeal in supply chains, strengthen brand reputation, attract investment and retain staff by demonstrating strong ESG credentials.
