EcoVadis Advantages
EFFICIENT, TIME-SAVING APPROACH Get evaluated just once (typically every 12 to 24 months) with our customized questionnaire and then easily reuse/share the results with all of your clients.
LEVERAGE YOUR EXISTING DOCUMENTSAvoid redundant uploads and reporting: You can reuse many existing certificates and documents directly in EcoVadis. E.g. your carbon data will be automatically integrated if you’re a member of the CDP project.
NET COST SAVINGSBecause of the staff time saved avoiding multiple surveys, most suppliers report payback/savings with the 2nd or 3rd client-shared. This is even more important for small businesses with limited CSR staff. The more you share your results, the greater the savings.
DATA CONFIDENTIALITY…and independent, expert analysis. You decide with whom you share your evaluation results.
ROBUST METHODOLOGYAlready tested on thousands of companies, the EcoVadis methodology is supervised by a scientific committee, and follows major international Sustainable Development standards.
