Reporting & Disclosures
EcoVadis
EcoVadis is the world's leading business sustainability ratings platform, assessing over 130,000 companies across 21 sustainability criteria grouped into four themes: Environment, Labour and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.
EcoVadis ratings — scored from 0–100 and tiered as Bronze (45–54), Silver (55–64), Gold (65–74), and Platinum (75+) — are required by multinational procurement teams at organisations including LVMH, L'Oréal, Nestlé, Saint-Gobain, and many others as part of supplier qualification and contract renewal processes. Ratings feed directly into supply chain sustainability programmes, Scope 3 supplier assessments, and CSRD value chain due diligence obligations. Without a structured approach to EcoVadis preparation and improvement, organisations risk low ratings that trigger supplier review, procurement disqualification, or reduced pricing leverage in carbon-sensitive value chains.
Our approach
A structured EcoVadis preparation and improvement programme is delivered using detailed knowledge of EcoVadis's 21-criteria scoring methodology and theme weighting by industry sector and company size. The process covers prior-score analysis, policy and documentation gap identification, targeted improvements aligned to the highest-weight scoring criteria, and submission review. The objective is to achieve a meaningfully improved rating — targeting Silver, Gold, or Platinum tier — while building the underlying ESG capability that sustains performance in subsequent assessment cycles.
- Analysis of current EcoVadis scorecard, sector weighting, and assessment methodology for company size and industry
- Detailed gap analysis across all four EcoVadis themes and 21 sustainability criteria against Silver, Gold, or Platinum benchmarks
- Development and refinement of policies, procedures, and supporting documentation aligned to EcoVadis evidence requirements
- Alignment of practices with high-weight scoring criteria: ISO 14001 / environmental policy (Environment), anti-corruption policy (Ethics), supplier codes of conduct (Sustainable Procurement)
- Documentation review and quality check of all submission evidence against EcoVadis upload requirements
- Continuous improvement planning for subsequent assessment cycles with defined milestone targets
