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 DOCUMENTS
Avoid 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 SAVINGS
Because 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 METHODOLOGY
Already tested on thousands of companies, the EcoVadis methodology is supervised by a
scientific committee, and follows major international Sustainable Development standards.
