Assessments & Rankings

CDP and EcoVadis assessments have become gatekeepers for customer relationships and supply-chain participation. However, for many mid-market manufacturers, these assessments are still managed as annual, high-stress exercises that are disconnected from broader sustainability efforts.

ADB Sustainability helps manufacturers build repeatable systems, credible data, and clear disclosures that improve CDP and EcoVadis performance without last-minute scrambling.

Who This Is For

Our CDP and EcoVadis support is designed for companies that:

  • We provide end-to-end assessment support, including:

    • Gap assessments against CDP and EcoVadis scoring methodologies

    • Data collection, validation, and documentation support

    • Policy development and evidence mapping

    • Narrative drafting aligned with scoring criteria

    • Submission management and quality review

    It’s not about short-term fixes; our goal is consistency, clarity, and continuous improvement.

    • Strengthen internal sustainability data systems

    • Improve cross-functional coordination

    • Support supplier and customer engagement

Proof in Practice

Experience supporting a mid-market manufacturer in elevating its CDP and EcoVadis submissions over successive reporting cycles now shapes ADB Sustainability’s perspective on ratings performance. The work delivered higher scores and reduced internal lift by building disciplined data systems, sharpening documentation, and aligning sustainability efforts across the business.

It reinforced a core belief: credible ratings outcomes follow from operational clarity, not last-minute paperwork.

  • If CDP or EcoVadis currently feels reactive or disconnected from your broader ESG program, we can help you make it routine and more valuable.
