Accredited EcoVadis Consulting and Support

Founded in Paris in 2007, EcoVadis is the leading provider of sustainability ratings, assessing over 150,000 companies worldwide. EcoVadis provides trusted sustainability ratings and insights to help companies reduce risk, fortify practices, and create positive social and environmental impact.  

EcoVadis ratings offer a comprehensive view of sustainability performance, helping businesses evaluate themselves and their suppliers as well as identify areas for improvement.

Recognized as the gold standard for sustainability intelligence platforms, EcoVadis enables companies to track and share their progress. Many medium-sized firms and manufacturers participate due to their roles in supply chains. High performers earn medals, while early reporters receive badges.  

This service is ideal for:

• Companies that have been requested by a buyer or that choose to voluntarily respond to an EcoVadis assessment and want to implement strategies to strengthen sustainability performance
• Sustainability, compliance, and enterprise risk management (ERM) teams responsible for coordinating EcoVadis responses across internal functions
• Organizations seeking to improve assessment outcomes by addressing underlying gaps in policies, measures, and supporting evidence

We serve suppliers to all industries — pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, technology, retail, consumer packaged goods (CPG), and any sector looking to reduce supply chain impacts and improve supply chain sustainability performance. This service is particularly useful for companies within supply chains that are required to demonstrate policies, targets, and supporting evidence, as well as GHG emissions management, as part of EcoVadis assessments.  

Clients typically see:

• Improved sustainability and ESG performance and strengthened alignment with key sustainability reporting frameworks
• More organized and efficient reporting processes
• Stronger response narratives
• Better alignment with regulatory frameworks

By leveraging the EcoVadis platform, SCS Consulting Services helps transform sustainability and ESG reporting from a buyer-required task into a strategic driver of stronger sustainability management systems, governance, and disclosure quality. 

Timelines vary based on company size and data readiness; however, SCS Consulting Services' guided process significantly reduces internal burden. Depending on the scope of different reporting mandates or the degree to which organizations wish to voluntarily disclose their accomplishments, companies can expect a multi-month engagement. We suggest contacting SCS Consulting Services early in the year, with a minimum of two months prior to each reporting deadline to ensure accurate reporting and completion of reports on time and on budget.
