Carbon scorecards were implemented to help engage business partners in climate action, prioritizing activities and sizes of organizations with the highest risks and impacts. As such, the first iteration of the carbon action module does not include companies with less than 25 employees, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises in specific industries. We are monitoring customer feedback and market evolution and based on demand will evolve the methodology to ensure continued alignment with customer needs.
Carbon scorecards are available to the vast majority of EcoVadis customers. There are some organizations that sit within a specific business activity (ISIC) category that do not receive a Carbon Scorecard.
Today, carbon scorecards are available to companies operating in relatively high emissions categories such as manufacturing, agriculture, utilities and transportation & logistics.
Smaller organizations and those that operate in industries with relatively low emissions are not eligible for carbon scorecards.
Below is a summary of the organizations that are excluded from accessing the carbon scorecard.
Based on size:
Organizations that are classified by EcoVadis as extra small (XS). This consists of organizations with less than 25 staff members.
Based on size and activity as defined by business activity (ISIC):
Organizations classified by EcoVadis as small (26-99 employees) and medium (100-999 employees) operating in the following ISIC categories are excluded from accessing the carbon scorecard.
