Supplier Qualification ESG: Why Renewed EcoVadis is Important to You as a Client?

The goal is that the EcoVadis evaluation process allows for a thorough verification of the company’s compliance with international ESG standards, ensuring transparency and credibility in business relationships.

What do you risk in risk management when working with a random supplier?

• Extended supplier verification (more emails, more documents).
• Risk of “surprises” during your audit (and then you explain to your client).
• Risk of failing to meet quality standards throughout the purchasing process.
• Harder to close tender requirements or ESG reporting when you need hard evidence, not descriptions.
• Risk of irregularities with the supplier, such as ethics violations, compliance breaches, or risk management issues.
• Risk of failure to meet ethical and legal standards by the supplier.
• Risk of labor law violations, including non-compliance with collective agreements, safety rules, or equality in the workplace.

At each stage of the supplier verification process, you must go through specific steps to minimize the above risks. The supplier’s evaluation is expressed in points, directly impacting their ESG supplier qualification.

EcoVadis Evaluation Process

Once again, we have undergone the EcoVadis evaluation — an independent assessment of the company’s practices in four areas: environment, labor practices and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement (annual verification). We are a company that prioritizes social responsibility, sustainable development, and a long-term strategic approach. ESG ratings are gaining weight as they allow for standardization and better understanding of the impact of a company’s activities on the environment, community, and economy. Our actions involve clients and partners worldwide, highlighting our global reach and commitment to sustainable development. Trust is the foundation of our cooperation with clients and partners, and transparency in ESG assessment and reporting is a key element in building that relationship. The EcoVadis certification we have obtained is formal confirmation of our standards and commitment to social responsibility. In our daily work, we use tools that support ESG management, helping us monitor and report progress. We also offer comprehensive solutions for companies that want to grow sustainably. Our position in the industry confirms that we are a competitive and reliable partner for businesses that care about the highest ESG standards.

Introduction to EcoVadis

EcoVadis is a global platform that enables companies around the world to assess and compare sustainability practices. The EcoVadis rating system covers key areas such as environment, human rights, labor law, ethics, and sustainable procurement. This allows companies not only to monitor their performance but also to demonstrate their commitment to social responsibility and risk management in the supply chain. Obtaining the EcoVadis certificate is confirmation that an organization meets high standards in sustainability and is continuously striving to improve in these areas. For clients and business partners, it is a clear signal that they are working with a company that treats environmental, ethical, and social issues with due importance, and whose policies are in line with market expectations and global trends. The EcoVadis assessment process is designed to clearly show how a company performs in sustainability areas. The process begins with a detailed survey where the company presents its policies, actions, and results in the environment, ethics, human rights, and sustainable procurement areas. EcoVadis experts then analyze the provided information, assigning points in each assessed area. The result is a report that not only presents the current EcoVadis rating but also indicates specific areas for improvement and further development. This report is a valuable tool for companies that want to raise compliance and responsibility standards, as well as for clients and partners who can easily verify the supplier’s commitment to sustainable development. Through this process, cooperation is based on transparency and trust, and the evaluation results become an important element of risk management strategy across the entire supply chain.

How to Verify in 2 Minutes?

If you want, we will prepare a set of documents for your supplier evaluation process (procurement/compliance/ESG), covering all stages of the documentation preparation process, e.g.:

• confirmation of current EcoVadis score/results,
• key policies and declarations (according to your requirements),
• information about the approach to the entire supply chain and sustainable procurement,
• compliance with ESG assessment criteria, such as environment, human rights, ethics, and sourcing system,
• basic data for supplier surveys.

We do not focus solely on formalities – our approach is comprehensive and covers all key ESG aspects. The company does not stand still – we are constantly evolving, updating documentation, and implementing new solutions in sustainable development. We operate according to the best practices used worldwide, focusing on transparency and ethics throughout the supply chain.
