ESG & sustainability

Move the medal yourcustomers gate on.

EcoVadis rates sustainability management across environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement, and your customers gate procurement on the result. We improve the score methodically, closing evidence gaps in the themes that carry the most weight until the medal moves.

01The work

Diagnosis first, then evidence, then the medal.

Scorecard diagnosis, evidence and policy build-out across all four themes, and a prioritised path from Bronze or Silver toward Gold or Platinum.

We manage the process end to end, because the difference between a score that moves and one that does not is usually administrative follow-through rather than ambition.

  1. Bronze Managed
  2. Silver Advanced
  3. Gold Leading
  4. Platinum Outstanding

The medal bands, in ascending order. Where you can realistically reach in one cycle depends on your starting scorecard and the evidence already in place.

02Four themes

The score is evidence, weighted by your profile.

EcoVadis does not rate intent. It rates documented management systems, weighted by industry and size — which is why the fastest gains usually come from evidencing what you already do.

One weighted scorecard — Environment, Labour & human rights, Ethics, Sustainable procurementA ring at the centre with four rays, each labelled with one dimension of the method. 01 Environment Operational and product impacts,policies, actions and results. 02 Labour & human rights Working conditions, health and safety,and human rights across the operation. 03 Ethics Corruption, anti-competitive practiceand information management. 04 Sustainable procurement Supplier environmental and socialpractice, and how you manage it.

  1. 01 Environment Operational and product impacts, policies, actions and results.
  2. 02 Labour & human rights Working conditions, health and safety, and human rights across the operation.
  3. 03 Ethics Corruption, anti-competitive practice and information management.
  4. 04 Sustainable procurement Supplier environmental and social practice, and how you manage it.

Weighting varies by industry and company size. We diagnose which themes carry the most weight for your profile before touching anything.

03Why it matters

Your customers gate procurement on the result, and they can see it.

Which makes the scorecard a commercial document rather than a sustainability one.

05Questions

Answered plainly.

Across four themes, weighted by industry and size, and evidenced by documentation.

By systematically closing the evidence and policy gaps that carry the most weight for your profile. We manage the process end to end.

Usually one assessment cycle to move a band, provided the evidence work starts well before the questionnaire reopens.
