According to Nem Bajra, CEO of Calsoft, the company's
decade-long journey as a B Corp has been a great source of
inspiration for them. “We have been able to transform our desire to
be a socially responsible company into measurable actions that
align with our goals,” Bajra said. ”Everything we do now aligns
with this objective.” He expressed his pride for Calsoft employees
for their innovative thinking in redefining how a business can
operate. They have led the way in driving change through their B
Corp initiatives while delivering exceptional service to their
clients. “The new score is a testament to the hard work and
dedication of the entire company,” he said.
Calsoft was initially certified as a B Corp in 2015, a
pioneering move as a Microsoft Dynamics partner. Calsoft must go
through a recertification process every three years to maintain
their B Corp status where its business practices are assessed
against the highest social and environmental performance standards.
In this recertification, Calsoft achieved increases across most
categories, and exceptional scores in the Workers and Governance,
with 56% and 88% increases, respectively.
Bo Shao, Calsoft's President, expressed appreciation for the
B Lab™ framework, as it has helped the company define its
contributions to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Calsoft is
proud of its contribution to SDG 17, which involves building a fair
and transparent institution. The company achieved this in 2017 when
it became 100% employee owned. “Calsoft's governance structures are
built on the ‘Management by All’ philosophy, where every employee
has a sense of ownership,” said Shao. The company is delighted that
B Lab recognizes these efforts and they are reflected in their
score. Calsoft is a devoted member of the B Lab community and looks
forward to supporting other B Corps.
"Calsoft's impressive score increase demonstrates their
commitment to embedding social responsibility into the core of
their company's DNA," said Jodi Beasley, Senior Director of
Community at B Lab U.S. & Canada. "We congratulate Calsoft on
this milestone and celebrate their contributions to the
movement."
Calsoft continues to use the B Impact Assessment™ to
carve a path for the future and set goals for the next three years,
including integrating social and environmental metrics into its
business models and service offerings to customers.
