EcoVadis’ vision is to enable a new way of doing business where sustainability intelligence influences every business decision. One of our key company values is _One Customer at a Time_ and as there is only one first impression we can make on the custome_r, _it is our objective to be ever-present at that stage to accelerate the change we believe is possible.

Deploying strategic corporate programs such as a sustainable procurement program, can be challenging for organizations as it requires systematic cultural change and stakeholder adoption. To ensure the customer gets to the benefits and to the ROI of their EcoVadis SaaS solutions early on, it is critical that all impacted employees, mostly procurement teams, understand how the program works, what they are requested to do and how to integrate EcoVadis in their procurement policies, processes and technologies. The EcoVadis onboarding team accompanies customers through a series of guided workshops, meetings, and topics, designed to set up a strong and successful foundation for their sustainable procurement goals with EcoVadis.
