What is EcoVadis, and what does it ask a small supplier?

A customer asked you for an EcoVadis assessment. Here's what it is, why it wants uploaded evidence, and how to get a good score without the stress.

The short answer

EcoVadis is a sustainability rating. Big companies ask their suppliers to complete one so they can check how responsible their supply chain is. Part of it covers your carbon emissions.

The key thing about EcoVadis

EcoVadis doesn't just want numbers — it wants proof. You get credit for answers you can back up with an uploaded document. A number with no evidence behind it scores poorly.

How to do well

This is exactly where CarbonProxy helps: every emissions number comes with an evidence pack showing the bill and the math behind it. So you're not just answering — you're answering with the proof EcoVadis rewards.
