Strategy · Climate & Sustainability · Transformation

From the decision to the delivered result.

EE StrategyPlus is a boutique consultancy for businesses and private equity portfolios. We help leadership teams make the call, evidence it, and see it through — in strategy, climate & sustainability, and transformation. Engage one practice, or all three.

Representative engagements

What the work looks like

A fund's first auditable carbon baseline — from a standing start

Situation
No ESG data governance, no carbon baseline, no materiality framework, and investors asking for all three within one fund cycle.
What we did
Audited portfolio data and closed an 18-item gap register, calculated the baseline from 126 facility-level data points, ran a double materiality assessment, and built the tracking and reporting tools.
Result
The fund's first auditable Scope 1 and 2 baseline, 18 climate initiatives ranked by financial return, and investor disclosure reports in two frameworks.

ESG risk caught before term sheet, and reporting that holds up to exit

Situation
Mandatory SFDR reporting obligations, no standards-aligned emissions baseline, and no way to show ESG improvement over the holding period.
What we did
Screened pipeline targets before term sheet, built an ISO 14064-1 Scope 1–3 inventory, assessed EU Taxonomy alignment, and scored every company for assurance readiness.
Result
Complete mandatory disclosure coverage, critical issues surfaced on two of three acquisition targets before term sheet, and blocking gaps identified before a verifier was appointed.

Who we work with

When clients call us

A first sustainability report is due

The deadline is fixed — under CSRD, the voluntary SME standard or the UK standards — and the data, the owners and the process are not yet in place.

An investor is asking for ESG data

A limited partner, lender or acquirer wants portfolio-level numbers, and each company measures differently or not at all.

A strategy needs testing

The current strategy, or a new one on the table, has to hold up. Leadership wants it stress-tested against the market and operating reality before committing.

A transformation is approved but stalled

The plan is signed off and the organisation has not moved. It needs an operating model, a transformation programme and someone to run it.

From SMEs building a first capability to corporates and private equity portfolios running multi-entity programmes.

Practice areas

Three practices. Engage one, or all three.

Strategy

From strategy to implementation. We work alongside your leadership team to understand where you stand, test the current strategy, choose between real options, and turn the choice into a roadmap and an implementation rhythm your organisation can run. The result is a strategy people understand, commit to and act on.

  • Strategy review & health check
  • Market positioning & business model
  • Strategic options & trade-offs
  • Strategy roadmap & implementation planning
  • Leadership facilitation & implementation coaching

Climate & Sustainability

From first data audit to assurance-ready disclosure. We build the carbon baseline, run double materiality assessments — your impact on people and the environment, and the financial risks and opportunities sustainability creates for you — and prepare reporting that holds up to investors, regulators and assurers across EU, UK and US requirements.

  • ESG data governance & quality audit
  • GHG accounting & carbon inventory
  • Double materiality & climate risk quantification
  • Decarbonisation roadmaps & business cases
  • Sustainability reporting & assurance readiness (CSRD, VSME, UK SRS, IFRS S1/S2, SFDR)
  • ESG due diligence & value creation

Transformation

From signed-off plan to working organisation. We lead the programmes that make change happen: designing the operating model, running delivery in agile steps, and bringing people with the change until it becomes how you work — including the sustainability and reporting changes many organisations now face.

  • Transformation readiness & programme set-up
  • Programme leadership & agile delivery
  • Operating model design
  • Change management, culture & adoption
  • Sustainability & reporting transformation
  • Digital, technology & AI-enabled transformation

Approach

How an engagement runs

Each stage ends with something you can use on its own, so you can stop after any of them.

Assess

We start with where you actually stand — the data, the regulatory exposure, the operating reality — not a generic maturity model.

You leave withA written baseline, a gap register with an owner for every item, and a ranked list of priorities.

Design

We build a strategy and compliance roadmap sized to your business and your timeline, not a template built for a much larger organisation.

You leave withA sequenced roadmap with costs, owners and decision points, and the business case behind each initiative.

Deliver

We stay through implementation — leading the transformation, running the programme, training your team, and building the tools that keep the plan working after we leave.

You leave withA transformation under way, a team that can run it, and working tools and methods that are yours to keep.

Tools & diagnostics

Advice that leaves working tools behind

Where a report would go out of date, we build the tool that keeps the answer current, and hand it over. Three diagnostics offer a way to start.

Sustainability · a way to start

Reporting gap diagnostic

A structured, requirement-by-requirement check of what you disclose today against what your reporting framework asks for, across CSRD, the voluntary SME standard, UK standards, GRI, SASB and CDP. You get a clear gap list and a view of what to fix first.

Strategy · a way to start

Strategy health check

A structured assessment of where your current strategy stands, before you change it. We map the strategy as it actually operates — customers, value proposition, competitors, resources, revenue model and risks — then test it for coherence, distinctiveness and resilience. You get a clear view of what is working, what is not, and where to focus.

Transformation · a way to start

Transformation readiness check

A structured assessment of whether the organisation is set up to deliver the change it has committed to. We look at ownership, structure, processes, capacity and culture, and at how the people affected see the change, then show where the programme is most likely to stall. You get a clear view of what to put right before delivery starts, or while it is under way.

About

Built on delivery discipline

EE StrategyPlus was founded in January 2023 on a simple observation: strategy advice, climate and sustainability reporting, and transformation delivery are usually bought from three different providers, leaving the client to stitch the handoffs together. We built this firm so they can be run together when that helps, and separately when it doesn't.

Our experience spans sectors and disciplines — energy and infrastructure project delivery, technology-sector transformation, and climate and ESG advisory among them — which is why our engagements don't stop at the recommendation. We size the plan to the business in front of us, then stay to build the roadmap and run the delivery. We are based in the United Kingdom and work with clients across EMEA and the US.
