From complexity to clarity: CSRD implementation at Linz-Remagen Hospital

In addition to the expertise of the CSRD team of experts, the AI-supported software solution was also a decisive factor in the choice of Planted. The ability of the ESG software to aggregate the relevant information from the 1,200 ESRS data points was particularly convincing for the Linz-Remagen hospital.

"We have neither the time nor the resources to work our way through all 1,200 ESRS data points. Planted's software will take this task off our hands - it will save us an enormous amount of time," says Jolanda Pott, Assistant to the Management, Verbundkrankenhaus Linz-Remagen.

Structured entry: The first steps with Planted

The process began with a double materiality analysis. In two workshops with the Planted team of experts, business activities and stakeholders were recorded and the impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) identified.

"The collaboration with Planted so far has been insightful, informal and valuable. The workshops in particular are worth their weight in gold, because even initially skeptical team members are won over," says Jolanda Pott.

This is particularly important as many different departments are involved in the CSRD process - from management to controlling, financial accounting, purchasing, supply chain management and quality management through to management assistance.

"By working closely with Planted, everyone developed a sense that sustainability is a topic for the future that we can benefit from."

CO₂ balance sheet and full CSRD reporting

In the upcoming workshops, the identified IROs will be transferred to the software and evaluated using AI. This will allow the key data points for the Linz-Remagen hospital to be determined precisely. The final presentation of the results will then form the basis for the next steps - from the CO₂ balance sheet to full CSRD reporting.
