Watch this special edition of our EcoVadis webinar series, where we’ll guide you through the latest changes and share expert tips to help you excel in your 2025 EcoVadis assessment.
Below, you can find some of the questions addressed during the Q&A.
- Is proof of employee acknowledgment of company Policies a requirement for max points?
- Explanation of the measures scoring model. Do we need to have 4+ measure per sub-theme? How is the % of key sustainability issues addressed calculated?
- How do questions that sit in multiple themes affect the scoring? Does each independently affect that themes scores and therefore have an increased weighting overall?
- Should any questions appear in the questionnaire that is not relevant to the industry in which my organisation is categorised, how may we seek clarification and/or request to have the questions removed in the questionnaire?
- How can a small company get certifications and endorsements without spending a lot of money?
- To better understand the criteria and coverage EcoVadis requires for a document to be sufficent for an answer in categories such as Biodiversity and Environmental advocacy. Additionally, companies with several divisions can sometimes only provide documents from all divisions as an answer, and not on a group level, how this should be managed to fulfil EcoVadis criteria?
- What is the most efficient way to improve the score and provide evidence when the company has many sites with different levels of environmental maturity (say 20 sites)?
- Any advice on appealing/challenging questions that didn’t get credit, or 360Watch findings that are not accurate?
- How to prepare data based on GRI standards evaluations?
- What are the key challenges for the small and medium size companies who want to get good scores on the ecovadis assessment?
