Stop manually compiling EcoVadis questionnaire responses. Emissa imports your QuickBooks data, maps Scope 1, 2 & 3 to EcoVadis environmental criteria, and generates a complete submission — audit-ready in under an hour.
EcoVadis assesses suppliers across four themes — Environment, Social & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement — scored on a 0–100 scale. Your score places you in one of four medal tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum. Major buyers use EcoVadis scores as a pre-qualification filter — a low score can disqualify you from RFP processes.
GHG emissions (Scope 1, 2, 3), energy consumption, water management, emissions to air, and waste. EcoVadis expects documented emissions inventories, energy efficiency initiatives, and third-party verified data where available.
Employee health and safety, working conditions, labor practices, and human rights due diligence. Emissa doesn't manage HR data — but the emissions submission you generate with Emissa demonstrates governance maturity to EcoVadis reviewers.
Anti-corruption policies, data privacy practices, and responsible data handling. Part of the EcoVadis assessment looks at whether companies treat ESG data — including emissions reporting — as a governance discipline.
How you manage environmental and social risks in your own supply chain. Your Scope 3 data — specifically purchased goods and services (Cat 1) — feeds directly into this criterion. Emissa maps this data automatically.
Emissa handles the emissions data. You handle the policies and certifications.
Upload your QuickBooks transaction export, utility bills, and fleet fuel records. Emissa maps the data to GHG Protocol categories and applies EPA emission factors (eGRID, GHGRP, USEEIO) to produce your Scope 1, 2 & 3 inventory.
Select "EcoVadis Rating Submission" in Emissa. The platform generates output covering all environmental criteria: GHG inventory, energy management, water stewardship, waste reduction, and biodiversity considerations — aligned to EcoVadis documentation standards.
Emissa produces a complete EcoVadis environmental response package with your emissions totals, factor sourcing, methodology documentation, and audit trail. The submission is ready to upload directly to the EcoVadis platform.
When your EcoVadis score is ready, invite procurement contacts to your secure Emissa supplier portal. They can view your emissions data, verify the submission, and keep your file on record — without email attachments.
Common questions from manufacturers preparing for EcoVadis assessment.
EcoVadis scores suppliers across four themes: Environment, Social & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Each theme has 7 criteria covering everything from GHG emissions to water usage, labor practices, and data privacy. Your score is weighted by materiality — so an emissions-heavy manufacturer is scored more heavily on environmental criteria.
Emissa generates a complete EcoVadis environmental submission by mapping your Scope 1, 2, and 3 data to the correct EcoVadis criteria. The output covers GHG inventory, energy consumption, water management, emissions to air, and waste — all aligned with your actual operational data, not generic estimates.
EcoVadis scoring depends on your operational data, not the tool you use. Emissa ensures you submit complete, documented data — which is the prerequisite for a strong score. Incomplete submissions are the primary reason suppliers receive low scores. Emissa eliminates that gap.
Yes. EcoVadis weights Scope 3 heavily in the Environment theme for manufacturing suppliers. Emissa covers all 15 GHG Protocol Scope 3 categories, with particular depth in purchased goods (Cat 1), transportation (Cat 4), and waste (Cat 5) — the categories most relevant to EcoVadis scoring for food and CPG companies.
Walmart Gigaton is a carbon accounting submission focused on total GHG inventory. EcoVadis is a broader ESG assessment covering environment, social, governance, and procurement practices. Both require Scope 1, 2, and 3 data, but EcoVadis also requires policy documentation, risk assessments, and certifications. Emissa handles the emissions portion — you handle the policies.
