Abstract
The ability of a company to maintain productivity over time and thus retain the potential of profitability and stability to the long-term is termed sustainability. The appropriate combination of sustainability indicators from a number of different fields, such as economic, social, environmental and corporate governance, is maintained during this period. In conjunction with the support of corporate reporting, it is a powerful tool that companies use to endorse internal environmental and financial reporting, distribution of descriptive information about the company into its surroundings, and a way to follow Key Performance Indicators. The aim of this paper is to present the prototype of the web portal WEBRIS (Web Information System for Corporate Performance Evaluation and Environmental Reporting). This portal can be adapted to various segments of the market by adding further modules. A module for a selected segment consists of several sub-modules that are focused on data collection and retrieval. The portal is oriented to support corporate sustainability and reporting in the selected subject area and was used in a pilot study performed in small and medium-sized breweries and biogas stations in the Czech Republic. It supports sustainability modelling in small and medium-sized enterprises. WEBRIS uses the support of XBRL as the native format for financial and sustainability reporting. The WEBRIS portal module for benchmarking allows sustainability assessment of a company from the given segment and supports its sustainability. It is a clear, simple and practical application with respect to sustainability modelling.
