Our commitment to sustainability and ESG
We strive to be the leading authority and catalyst for digital change, connectivity and inclusion
Our purpose
Our purpose is to help shape and determine the decisive moments that steer our clients’ progress, to support their business objectives and connect our world. Sustainability – emissions reduction, inclusion, diversity and ethical governance – is of the utmost importance to us as a business, however we believe our greatest impact is in using our unique combination of technology, media, telecoms (TMT) and sustainability expertise at Analysys Mason to help clients successfully navigate towards sustainable growth and a digital economy.
We support our clients through complex transformational journeys, partnering closely with them across multiple industries and geographies, to help shape the decisive moments that guide their progress.
By combining world-class expertise with local knowledge and experience, we provide a working environment where collaborative efforts are encouraged throughout the whole company, offering exceptional development and career progression opportunities for all.
We are committed to:
the highest standards of moral and ethical behaviour and actions
our clients, employees and the communities where we live and work
Our actions will contribute to a world where technology delivers for all.
Our values
The work we do is underpinned by five core values. We use these values to inform and guide our own long-term strategy as well as how we work and provide services to our clients.
Four times a year, we meet as a whole business at company briefings where our values are upheld and reinforced. Among other things, we learn about inspiring client stories of success, discuss our latest innovations, and communicate how Analysys Mason is driving growth sustainably.
Our annual Professional Excellence Awards are given to the best and most innovative examples of client consulting, research work or internal initiatives during the year and are selected by the entire Partner group. Competition is strong, marking our people’s commitment to advancement and growth.
Regular global knowledge sharing facilitates the transfer of expertise from colleagues in one region to those in others, enabling intellectual growth among our associates, as well as deepening our commitment to client service.
We continuously monitor our staff and clients’ needs, seeking to find creative ways to better address their requirements and rapidly respond to enquiries. We are accredited to ISO 9001 Quality Management.
Environmental sustainability
We understand the urgency with which society and businesses must address the impacts of climate change.
We are therefore committed to minimising our impact on the environment and acknowledge our role in the transition to a low-carbon economy as well as the risks and opportunities that this presents. We are working to become carbon emissions net zero by 2030, compensating where emissions are unavoidable.
We have moved fully to the cloud, reducing energy inefficiencies. Where possible, we make use of online communication tools both internally and with our clients, reserving travel only for those meetings where face-to-face communication will add real value. When our equipment refresh programmes occur, we offer employees the option to replace or continue using their equipment if it is still fully operational and in good condition. End-of-life equipment is securely wiped and recycled through our network of charity partners.
Social responsibility
Social responsibility is embedded in our core values and culture, not just in our written policies and processes.
Our values and principles remain a powerful driver on our continuous journey to be a more sociable and responsible business. We are committed to good corporate citizenship and to supporting community and charity initiatives.
We offer volunteering days, match fundraising efforts, donate to charity and are committed to reducing our carbon footprint.
We regularly support Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF), a global charity with a compelling mission – to provide emergency response technologies during humanitarian crises. TSF also builds rapid-response communications centres for local and international responders. The charity has responded to over 140 crises and provided communication means to over 20 million people around the world since its inception.
Analysys Mason’s commitment to advancing TMT’s role as a critical enabler of social transformation deeply resonates with TSF’s work on bridging the digital divide. TSF aims to remove barriers to connectivity in various areas around the globe, helping unconnected communities access the internet by building information and communication technology (ICT) centres and training new users.
We are proud to send a donation to TSF for every feedback submission that we receive from our clients at the end of a project.
Diversity, equity and inclusion
Our multinational and multicultural status is one of our greatest strengths. We are committed to inclusivity in our workplace where diversity is celebrated, equity is proactively sought and inclusion is standard. We have a global commitment to fair, transparent and inclusive working practices for all.
To demonstrate our commitment, we are a proud signatory of the Tech Talent Charter, a non-profit organisation leading a movement to address inequality in the UK tech sector and drive inclusion and diversity in a practical, measurable way.

Recruitment and selection policy
From the outset of the employee lifecycle, our recruitment and selection process is designed with a focus on hiring the most suitable and best-performing applicants in a fair and non-discriminatory way. This includes: actively considering where and how we promote job opportunities, and assessing candidates through structured/unbiased interviews and gaining feedback, thus evidencing our commitment to equitable and inclusive practice.
Female Executive Coaching programme
To proactively supplement our diversity, equity and inclusion processes, we run an internal female executive coaching programme called Supporting Future Female Leaders. The programme’s objective is the improved retention and professional growth trajectory of female consultants. Consultants benefit from the experience and advice of senior female mentors while widening their network and collaboration opportunities. This provision of role models and career mentors has a positive impact on attraction, retention and progression at Analysys Mason.
Governance
We are committed to the highest standards of moral and ethical behaviour and actions, so that through our work with clients and communities we can contribute to a world where technology delivers for all. It is our policy to conduct business honestly and ethically so that we meet the highest professional and ethical standards. 25% of our company is employee-owned which ensures stability when it comes to long-term strategic decision making.
We report on, comply with and have policies for all relevant legal and regulatory requirements in the following areas:
- anti-bribery and corruption
- gifts and hospitality
- anti-money laundering
- sanctions
- conflicts of interest
- data security
We have an independent and anonymous whistle-blowing platform which our employees can use to raise any concerns or report behaviour which breaches our policies.
Information security, cyber security and privacy protection
The confidentiality and security of our clients’ data is paramount to how we conduct business. Our digital technology solutions team keep up to date with the latest trends and champion ways to improve security, protecting our, and our clients’ data. Periodic penetration testing and vulnerability scanning exercises are conducted on all our systems as part of our IT and cyber-security risk management programme. We have obtained external certifications such as ISO 27001 for information security, cyber security and privacy protection. We run a mandatory training module for all employees in the company on cyber security and phishing.
Business partner and supply chain management
Analysys Mason is committed to having commercial business relationships with only those that are performing their business activities in compliance with the laws, rules and regulations of the countries in which they operate and that they conduct their business in an ethical and socially responsible manner, including the management of modern slavery and human rights risks.
At Analysys Mason, ESG risks are integrated into the assessment of potential suppliers before contracting. New suppliers agree to a code of conduct, supported by our supplier terms and if appliable a non-disclosure agreement. All suppliers undergo regular reviews and material suppliers are reviewed annually by management.
