Sustainability

At Alcumus ISOQAR, sustainability isn’t just a compliance requirement — it’s a core value that shapes every decision we make. We believe that true business excellence is only possible when organizations take responsibility for their people, their planet, and their practices.

As part of the Alcumus Group, we deliver on this belief through a comprehensive sustainability programme built on three interconnected pillars:

• People & Communities – Creating safer, healthier, and fairer workplaces while empowering communities to thrive.
• Planet – Reducing environmental impact, supporting biodiversity, and helping organizations transition to low-carbon, sustainable operations.
• Business Ethics & Resilience – Embedding integrity, transparency, and risk resilience into everyday business practices.

Our unified ESG approach enables organizations to anticipate risks, manage impacts, and unlock long-term value. We see sustainability as the “golden thread” that links ethical governance, strong environmental stewardship, and resilient supply chains — ensuring that progress is measurable, meaningful, and lasting.

As part of the Alcumus Group, we are committed to leading by example in the global transition towards a sustainable future.

Alcumus has strengthened its position as a sustainability leader through the acquisition of Planet Mark, a globally respected provider of carbon reduction and Net Zero certification. This strategic move allows us to offer organizations a clear, measurable, and credible pathway to achieving their climate goals.

Our commitment goes beyond services — we have set Science-Based ESG targets that align with the ambition of Net Zero by 2050, ensuring our own operations meet the same high standards we promote to our clients. By integrating environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance into everything we do, we aim to inspire and enable organizations worldwide to create lasting positive change.

At ISOQAR India, we take the Alcumus Group’s global sustainability vision and transform it into real-world action through targeted projects that address some of India’s most pressing environmental and social challenges. Our work goes beyond certification — it’s about creating lasting change for people, wildlife, and the planet.

• Mitigating Human–Elephant Conflict – We collaborate with local communities, conservationists, and government agencies to reduce incidents of conflict between humans and elephants. This includes creating and maintaining safe wildlife corridors, conducting awareness programs to foster coexistence, and implementing early-warning systems that protect both lives and livelihoods. By tackling this challenge, we help preserve India’s biodiversity while supporting rural stability.
• Empowering Rural Areas with Solar Energy – We bring clean, renewable power to remote villages where electricity access is limited or unreliable. Through the installation of solar lighting systems, we enhance safety after dark, enable children to study in the evenings, extend working hours for local businesses, and reduce dependence on polluting energy sources. This small change sparks big transformations in education, economic opportunity, and quality of life.

These initiatives reflect our unwavering commitment to biodiversity conservation, climate action, and inclusive community development. They also highlight our belief that assurance and certification should not exist in isolation, but should actively contribute to building a safer, more sustainable, and more equitable world.

• Biodiversity & Ecosystem Assessments – Evaluate and monitor your organization’s effect on local ecosystems and biodiversity, enabling targeted action plans that align with global conservation priorities.
