Today, there is an increasing focus on the sustainability performance of companies. Consumers, business partners, and investors alike are seeking companies that operate transparently and responsibly. The EcoVadis certification is an excellent tool for helping companies demonstrate their commitment to social and environmental responsibility.
EcoVadis is a globally recognized, objective rating system that provides a comprehensive overview of a company's sustainability performance.
The assessment evaluates various aspects, including environmental protection, workers' rights, ethical operations, and sustainable procurement.
How to Start the EcoVadis Process?
Some of our clients approach us because their multinational business partners require them to obtain EcoVadis certification as a condition for retaining supplier status and they need our support in the process.
Others want to avoid being confronted with an urgent deadline, as some tenders explicitly state that winners must achieve at least the minimum EcoVadis level within six months of winning. These proactive companies start the EcoVadis certification process on their own initiative, giving themselves more time and flexibility to conduct thorough due diligence on sustainability, complete the missing steps, and prepare the necessary documentation for EcoVadis certification.
