EcoVadis is a global sustainability ratings platform that evaluates companies across four categories:
Businesses complete a tailored questionnaire, which takes into consideration individual company size, location and industry. This requires data collection across a range of areas and providing support documentation for each response. Based on this information, EcoVadis generates a scorecard and, where applicable, awards the company with a bronze, silver, gold or platinum medal. Other recognition includes ‘Committed’ and ‘Fast Mover’ badges, which acknowledges special efforts where the criteria for a medal hasn’t been reached. This process is repeated yearly.
Many companies complete EcoVadis assessments at the request of their customers, whilst others voluntarily take part to illustrate their sustainability credentials. It’s an excellent starting point for organisations aiming to assess their sustainability practices, build on their progress, and easily share these achievements with clients.
After completing our first ever assessment in 2024, Scotch Partners was awarded a Bronze medal for coming in the top 17% of businesses. This inspired us to go down the route of becoming an Approved EcoVadis Training Partner, which we can now proudly announce that we were successful in!
We specialise in helping clients enhance their responses to the EcoVadis questionnaire whilst continuously improving their sustainability practices. We understand that each client has unique requirements, so we offer tailored support to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re a requesting company or a rated organisation, we can provide the level of assistance you need to achieve your sustainability goals.
