Watch our newest CDP webinar session, where our experts dive into understanding the significant role of the ‘essential criteria’ on the CDP questionnaire, as well as helping you with actionable steps to improve your score.

Here are some questions addressed during the webinar:

  • What are evolving topics that you consider to integrate in the 2023 or later assessment?
  • I would appreciate if you could provide how to effectively understand EcoVadis assessment report for development of action plan.
  • Are there any unique IDs for companies that fill out the CDP questionnaire that enable merging CDP data with other data sources for these companies?
  • What are the primary changes compared to last year’s CDP questionnaire format?
  • Any insights on appealing CDP assessments if/when 360 findings are not accurate would be appreciated.
  • How do questions that sit in multiple themes affect the scoring? Does each independently affect that themes scores and therefor have an increased weighting overall?
  • What are best practices for SMEs? Does the reporting for SMEs will be more elaborate than just 3 lines in Excel?
  • Will there be any changes to the scores this year for SMEs? Can an SME get an A score? Last year, the maximum score was SME B.
  • Could you explain a bit more how the gradient scoring (A-D) works in practice? What does it mean when each questions have allocated points for each gradience?
  • Have there been any recent changes in the certification method with respect to scoring?
  • How do we get the buy-ins from our procurement teams on sustainability?
