In September 2022, the ACT initiative published updated versions of four qualitative modules which appear in all ACT methodologies (5. Management, 6. Supplier engagement, 7. Client engagement, and 8. Policy engagement).
The fifth qualitative module, module 9: Business model, has now been updated. Along with the other qualitative modules, the updated version of module 9 is designed to be applied to multiple sectors (with some sector-specific adjustments), and will accordingly be integrated into all upcoming ACT methodology updates.
The update followed a multi-step process, including a literature review, multi-stakeholder consultation, testing, and final update. The linked document presents the summarized list of changes to module 9, as well as the rationale, definitions, and scoring methodology for the updated module.
Thank you to all participants for their time and feedack.
