How can I share my EcoVadis Scorecard?

In the world of sustainability reporting, completing a thorough sustainability assessment once, and sharing the results with multiple companies, can be a huge time saver. It enables a single assessment to meet the often demanding requirements of multiple trading partners who may represent significant value to multiple stakeholders within your company. With EcoVadis, all subscription plans allow you to share your valid scorecard with an unlimited number of trading partners.  

Learn how to use your EcoVadis Ratings platform to:

• Accept requests to share your scorecard from trading partners;
• Proactively share your scorecard with trading partners;
• Check what companies you share your scorecard with. 

Accepting sharing requests from trading partners

How do I know a trading partner wishes to access my scorecard?

All requests from trading partners to share your scorecard are visible on your EcoVadis Ratings platform. Additionally, a sharing request is sent by email to your company’s Assessment Administrators and to the contact provided by the requesting company. 

The notification about a new sharing request is displayed on your Dashboard.

Additionally, you can check all requests in Sharing Activity in your main menu.

How do I accept or decline the sharing request?

You will receive a sharing request email with a link to your EcoVadis Ratings platform. There, you can find all new requests in Network, at the top of the Sharing Activity list. 

The request will be automatically accepted unless you specifically decline it. You have seven (7) calendar days to decline such a sharing request. There might be custom questions from the trading partner associated with their sharing request. Learn more about custom questions.

Can I stop sharing my scorecard?

After accepting the sharing request, you have thirty (30) days to revoke the sharing if needed. Please contact us at support.ecovadis.com

Do I share my scorecard with all sector initiative members?

In case the requesting trading partner is a member of a sector initiative, you will have the option to “Manage request” and see which other members of this initiative will have access to your performance upon accepting. Each sector initiative establishes its own sharing rules (all-or-none or selective). Learn more about sector initiatives. 

Proactively sharing with trading partners

You can proactively share your company’s scorecard with a trading partner, without waiting for an invitation. There are several ways to do it directly through the EcoVadis Ratings platform:

• Send an invitation to specific email addresses;
• Take advantage of the EcoVadis Network search, without the need to specify the email address. This allows you to establish connections even if you do not have the contact information of a specific person at a given company.

How to share your scorecard by email? 

1. Go to the Scorecard tab on the My Performance page.
2. Click the “Share my scorecard” button in the top-right corner of the scorecard. The button is also available on your Dashboard.
3. Click “Enter email address”. In the invitation popup, select the invitation language and add an optional message. Once you click “Share my scorecard,” an invitation is sent to all the provided addresses, containing a secure link to view your scorecard on the platform.

How to send an invitation without contact details (using EcoVadis search)?

1. Go to the Scorecard tab on the My Performance page.
2. Click the “Share my scorecard” button in the top-right corner of the scorecard. The button is also available on your Dashboard.
3. Type the company name or its DUNS number in the search bar and click “Search.” Tip: Select country, industry or size for more relevant results.
4. Click “Share my scorecard” next to the name of the selected company. Your scorecard will be shared with all EcoVadis platform users at this company. This company may later ask you to share your full sustainability profile, including documents, corrective action plan, metrics, etc.

If your company has a Premium or Corporate subscription, you can also download a PDF of the scorecard and share it outside the platform.

Checking your sharing activity

You can check which companies have access to your scorecard on the Sharing Activity page in Network. It contains two tabs:

• Connections: here, you can see all companies that have access to your full sustainability profile, including corrective action plan, metrics, etc.
• Shared scorecard: here, you can see all companies with whom you proactively shared your scorecard. These companies have access to your scorecard only, and may later invite you to share your full sustainability profile.
