Sustainability work that creates measurable business value
We are seasoned strategy consultants working with established companies, institutional investors, and public institutions. We work with sustainability across traditional business disciplines such as strategy, commercialisation, risk & resilience, cost efficiencies, energy security, operating model, supply chain engagement & management.
We work in the intersection of sustainability and value creation
Sustainability work needs to drive business value. That’s what we help our clients achieve. These are some typical client challenges we help solve:
- How do we integrate sustainability priorities into corporate strategy and turn progress into market advantage?
- How do we reduce COGS and strengthen supply resilience through non-virgin materials and supplier engagement?
- What are the biggest physical and transition risks to our business, and how do we mitigate them?
- How do we engage with our suppliers to drive both emissions reduction and cost efficiency?
We support clients driving sustainability forward from any starting point

Bluestep Bank
Developing a sustainable strategy for a financial player
Bluestep is the largest specialist mortgage lender in Scandinavia, working to enable financial inclusion for those underserved by traditional banks. With a vision of helping more people fulfil their economic potential, Bluestep is also raising the bar on how sustainability is embedded across its business. The Footprint Firm partnered with Bluestep to shape the next phase of its sustainability journey, clarifying its market positioning, ESG ambitions, and roadmap for value creation.

The project
Bluestep was ready to take the next step in its sustainability strategy, with a focus on defining a clear vision, sharpening its positioning in the market, and identifying how they could create long-term ESG value. Our role was to guide this process and help ensure that sustainability would become a strategic driver.
Our approach
Together with the Bluestep team, we facilitated a series of workshops and strategy sessions to co-develop their sustainability vision and future position. We mapped current efforts, pressure points, and opportunities, and translated these into a clear direction for how Bluestep can contribute to broader financial access.
The process resulted in a robust sustainability strategy, anchored in a detailed implementation plan and KPIs to track progress and embed accountability.
The impact
Our work has helped Bluestep build a strong strategic foundation for sustainability, grounded in its purpose and aligned with future market expectations.
With a clear vision, actionable plan, and internal ownership across teams, Bluestep is now well-positioned to advance its ESG agenda and demonstrate leadership on inclusive finance.
