Now it's time for implementation. Many SMEs fear the \u201eExcel nightmare\u201c here. However, a static report that is created once a year and then disappears into a drawer does not add any value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our approach at ZEROvia is: <strong>Digitizing instead of archiving.<\/strong> Here is the specific 4-step plan as described in our new guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column card is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: The quick check (day 1)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step costs nothing and provides orientation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Action:<\/strong> Run the <strong>ESG Quick Check<\/strong> on zerovia.ch.
