CINCINNATI, OH — September 15th, 2026 — Benchmark Gensuite, a provider of AI-forward enterprise management software for EHS, Sustainability, Quality, Risk and Compliance, today announced that Responsio has received a 2026 Sustainability Leadership Award from the Business Intelligence Group for its AI-powered approach to managing complex sustainability disclosures at enterprise scale.
“Responsio takes on the unglamorous but critical work of sustainability disclosure — the CDP, CSRD, and GRI requests that can overwhelm lean teams,” said Russ Fordyce, Chief Recognition Officer at the Business Intelligence Group. “Delivering proven 70% faster response times while keeping answers consistent and audit-ready is a genuinely useful application of AI to a real operational bottleneck.”
Organizations face a growing volume of sustainability and product disclosure requests from customers, investors, and regulators. Responding often requires teams to search across emails and spreadsheets, coordinate with subject-matter experts, locate previously approved information, and adapt past responses to new requirements.
Responsio replaces that fragmented process with a centralized, AI-assisted disclosure management platform. Structured workflows establish ownership from intake through review and approval, while a reusable response repository gives teams access to previously approved organizational knowledge. Together, these capabilities help enterprises respond faster while maintaining greater consistency and governance across disclosures.
Recent Responsio enhancements informed by direct user feedback include Request Reader for automated intake, Questionnaire Response First Draft for AI-assisted draft generation, and Flexible Repository Uploads for incorporating historical responses into reusable organizational knowledge.
Together, these capabilities have reduced questionnaire ingestion time by 90%, enabling teams to move from manual setup to drafting and review significantly faster.
Today, Responsio supports more than 32 organizations and 4,600 users managing disclosure requirements across frameworks including CDP, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, Global Reporting Initiative standards, and IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards.
By combining AI-assisted drafting, reusable approved content, and defined review and approval workflows, Responsio gives sustainability teams a scalable operating model for managing growing disclosure demands with greater speed, consistency, and control.
Responsio extends Benchmark Gensuite’s AI-forward approach to enterprise sustainability management by bringing intelligent automation, organizational knowledge, and workflow governance together in one disclosure management solution.
