EcoVadis Rating Advisory
Sustainability Rating for Compliant, Competitive and Responsible Businesses and their Supply Chain
With sustainability front and center, smart business leaders are adapting effective strategies marked by trusted ratings of their sustainability performance. DEKRA provides approved advisory services along the entire assessment process for the recognised EcoVadis sustainability rating you need to position your business for long-term success.
We help you with EcoVadis submission or rating improvement
At DEKRA, we offer comprehensive guidance to help unrated businesses complete and submit the EcoVadis questionnaire for assessment. For rated companies, we assist in analysing their current scorecard and provide advice on improvement measures. All HSBC customers receive an exclusive discount on these services.
Our EcoVadis Rating Submission Advisory explains EcoVadis methodology so you can understand and answer questions appropriately and efficiently prepare required evidence.
Our service is conducted in the following process:
1. Gap analysis and guidance (e.g., ambition level definition, joint questionnaire review and gap analysis)
2. Questionnaire completion (e.g., fill in answers, select evidence)
