What Is EcoVadis Assessment?
The EcoVadis assessment is a globally recognized sustainability rating system used by companies to evaluate suppliers and partners on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance.
The platform assesses companies across four key sustainability themes:
• Environment
• Labor and Human Rights
• Ethics
• Sustainable Procurement
Organizations submit documentation, policies, and supporting evidence through the questionnaire. Based on the evaluation, companies receive a score and may qualify for medals such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum.
Today, thousands of multinational companies rely on sustainability ratings to monitor supplier performance and ensure responsible sourcing practices.
Completing the process effectively allows businesses to:
• Strengthen supply chain relationships
• Demonstrate ESG commitment
• Meet buyer sustainability requirements
• Improve transparency and risk management

Case Study: Improving a Supplier Sustainability Score
A manufacturing company supplying to global buyers faced challenges during the evaluation process. The organization lacked structured ESG documentation and received a low initial rating.
Our consulting team conducted a sustainability gap analysis and supported the company in developing environmental and human rights policies, improving internal governance practices, and organizing documentation.
Within one assessment cycle, the company improved its sustainability score significantly and strengthened relationships with international clients.
This demonstrates how structured sustainability management can improve supplier credibility and market opportunities.
Understanding EcoVadis Score Levels and Medal Recognition
How Scores and Medals Work
The EcoVadis assessment evaluates companies using a sustainability scoring system ranging from 0 to 100, based on performance across four ESG themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.
In addition to the score, companies may receive medals that recognize top-performing organizations relative to all companies evaluated globally.
Since 2024–2025, medals are awarded based on percentile ranking rather than fixed score thresholds. This means a company’s recognition depends on how it performs compared with other companies in the database over the previous 12 months.
Current percentile recognition levels include:
Platinum Medal
Gold Medal
Silver Medal
Bronze Medal
This percentile approach ensures that sustainability recognition reflects current global performance benchmarks rather than static thresholds.
