Solution
First, DFGE set a prioritized data management plan with a specific list of documents, in order to identify the existing documentation that could help tackle important gaps. DFGE proceeded to the collection of the documents with the help of X-Label, and checked how they could address EcoVadis expectations. When reading the EcoVadis questionnaire for the first time, it might be difficult to know which document can help support a company’s declaration.
DFGE’s expertise in CSR documentation is a key factor of success here. Indeed, the team has been trained on EcoVadis and is experienced in managing EcoVadis improvement plan, thus in finding the appropriate documentation.
Once the documentation set was consolidated, DFGE took care of the questionnaire while focusing on priorities.
