About the ITT
ESA’s 2025 ITT builds on the success of 2024’s Sustainability Impact Studies conducted in collaboration with Deloitte, Rina, and Vito. These studies refined ESA’s methodology for assessing the sustainability benefits of its projects. The upcoming ITT seeks to:
- Further enhance this methodology to include robust quantitative analysis, Life Cycle Assessments, and normalisation of sustainability indicators.
- Deliver clear, actionable, and visually communicable results for decision-making.
- Refine a conceptual framework for systematic application across ESA activities.

- Competitive Edge for the ITT: get a head start by understanding the expectations and deliverables of the upcoming tender.
- Networking Opportunities: position your firm as a key player in sustainability consultancy and establish connections with ESA and industry peers.
By participating, you will acknowledge ESA’s sustainability impact framework and contribute to advancing its societal needs.
