Across Europe, momentum for OneStream ESG Reporting & Planning continues to build, even as the market awaits further clarity around Omnibus. Many organizations are moving forward with new implementations — not standing still. By doing so, these organizations are demonstrating a clear commitment to modernizing performance management and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) capabilities now.
Our existing ESG customers are also amplifying this momentum. How? By sharing their success stories on stage at our World Tour events in EMEA, highlighting real-world value and innovation. This energy is further reinforced by our latest June 2026 platform release. In it, we deliver new capabilities to meet evolving business needs, alongside fresh insights, new blog content, and valuable resources on our website.
Together, these milestones highlight a vibrant and growing OneStream community that’s empowered to advance with confidence despite ongoing regulatory uncertainty.
L’Oreal: Transforming constraint into performance to strategically leverage the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)
At our first world tour event in Paris, OneStream customer L’Oréal spoke about selecting a unified enterprise performance management (EPM) solution for ESG. The goal? To prioritize long-term scalability, flexibility, and integration with core business processes over short-term speed. Despite offering rapid time to market, ESG point solutions had limited EPM capabilities. The solutions were also constrained by rigid, out-of-the-box reporting.
In contrast, the unified EPM platform approach provides high flexibility and the ability to tailor ESG processes to L’Oréal’s specific business needs. L’Oréal can thus achieve deeper alignment between financial and non-financial data. Per the L’Oreal team, unified EPM helped them build a more robust, future-ready ESG framework with key benefits:
- Support for evolving regulatory requirements (e.g., CSRD)
- Enhanced decision-making
- Sustainability embedded directly into EPM
KLM: Building Control Before Complexity Scales
At our final EMEA World tour event in Amsterdam, OneStream customer KLM talked through their ESG journey. They especially highlighted how OneStream helps turn ESG from a reporting burden into a strategic advantage.
Managing ESG at scale, KLM has built a controlled, auditable data foundation. They’ve captured from Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions to Waste and Air pollution, along with Own workforce metrics. But the real shift is cultural: ESG isn’t merely about ticking compliance boxes. Instead, ESG is embedded into Finance workflows and used to drive meaningful stakeholder insight.
With this strong foundation, KLM is moving beyond reporting to action. How? By leveraging both financial and ESG data to track progress against targets and monitoring strategic initiatives. The goal is clear: position ESG as a competitive differentiator that contributes to:
- Strengthening the brand
- Unlocking financing
- Informing decision-making
OneStream helps enable ESG reporting at KLM to go beyond simple compliance — ESG becomes a value driver.
Why OneStream for ESG
Organizations doing ESG well are starting with a unified platform such as OneStream as the foundation. When systems, controls, and accountability reinforce each other, scale follows. And that allows organizations to reap the benefits. Ultimately, OneStream was designed as a unifying solution that finally brings together all the key finance and operational processes — including ESG — in one place.
OneStream’s unified Intelligent Finance platform (see Figure 1) with built-in reporting and analytics eliminates the complexity of fragmented ESG and financial reporting tools. With a strong foundation in financial data quality, OneStream allows organizations to strengthen the roots of ESG reporting. How? By integrating and validating large volumes of non-financial data (e.g., ESG metrics and conversion factors) with validation from any number of sources.

OneStream’s latest ESG release
In June 2026, we announced our latest release of OneStream ESG Reporting and Planning, titled Turn Evolving ESG Requirements into an Operational Advantage — Faster.
This release helps organizations respond to rapidly changing ESG and regulatory demands. How? By improving how organizations analyze utilities data (Scope 2), manage contracts, and operationalize reporting requirements. The release also empowers organizations to expand readiness for additional global standards, such as the Australian Sustainability Reporting Standard (ASRS).
OneStream ESG Reporting and Planning enables finance and sustainability teams to move beyond static ESG reporting. With OneStream, teams can take immediate, actionable control over energy data, contract spend, and compliance requirements.
