VSME Preparation
Structure available evidence against the voluntary SME reporting standard — conservatively and progressively.
Who it is for — and what you will need
SMEs preparing voluntary sustainability disclosures.
- Company scope
- The applicable VSME module
- Data not already in the ESG record
Anything OrenAtlas already knows is prefilled with its evidence state — you are asked only for what is missing or unresolved.
How it works
5 stages. Save and resume at any point; each stage keeps its evidence attached to the exact item it supports.
Company scope
Applicable VSME module selected.
in developmentStage details
- What OrenAtlas already knows
- Company scope; module options
- What you provide
- VSME module selection (required) — Bounds required metrics/disclosures
- Evidence used
- No evidence collected at this stage.
- What happens
- Module recorded
- If something is missing
- Undecided module blocks with guidance, not guesses.
- Done when
- Module fixed.
- What comes next
- VSME scope.
Metrics
Required metrics/disclosures; existing ESG data reused — no second sustainability dataset.
in developmentStage details
- What OrenAtlas already knows
- Required metrics/disclosures with existing ESG data prefilled — if ESG already contains the metric, it is NOT asked again
- What you provide
- Nothing — OrenAtlas assembles this stage.
- Evidence used
- ESG program data. Reuse: Full reuse; no second sustainability dataset.
- What happens
- Coverage derives from reused ESG data
- If something is missing
- Missing items become owned, actionable tasks (request evidence / assign owner) — never a dead warning.
- Done when
- Coverage mapped.
- What comes next
- Module coverage map.
Gaps
Missing data and evidence identified.
in developmentStage details
- What OrenAtlas already knows
- Missing metrics as tasks
- What you provide
- Missing values + evidence (if applicable) — Close module gaps; values flow into the ESG dataset
- Evidence used
- Same categories as ESG collect. Reuse: New values land in the ESG program dataset.
- What happens
- Tasks owned
- If something is missing
- Missing items become owned, actionable tasks (request evidence / assign owner) — never a dead warning.
- Done when
- Gaps completed or accepted open.
- What comes next
- Completed gap work.
Review
Human review.
in developmentStage details
- What OrenAtlas already knows
- Per-metric states
- What you provide
- Review decisions (required) — Confirm coverage states
- Evidence used
- No evidence collected at this stage.
- What happens
- No formal compliance claim
- If something is missing
- Missing stays explicit.
- Done when
- Review complete.
- What comes next
- Reviewed state.
Preparation Pack
VSME Preparation Pack — no formal compliance claim.
in developmentStage details
- What OrenAtlas already knows

- What happens
- Versioned; no compliance claim; next actions present
- If something is missing
- Open items listed.
- Done when
- Versioned VSME Preparation Pack generated.
- What comes next
- VSME Preparation Pack (versioned) → back to ESG program.
What you receive: VSME Preparation Pack
A versioned result — not just a PDF. It preserves:
Current state
Foundation — in development.
The VSME category exists in the evidence model; module mapping and workspace are specified but not yet built.

Your case context (company, product, market, requirement) travels with you — nothing is re-selected.
