DDS obtains ECOVADIS certification

The aim?

To help companies structure their CSR approach and make it sustainable.

By obtaining certification, companies that structure their CSR approach commit to an ongoing process of improvement. By identifying areas for improvement, it is easier to draw up an action plan.

At a time when a company’s value is increasingly linked to the environmental impacts of its value chain, obtaining this certification is crucial.

It sets companies apart from their competitors.

In terms of benchmarking, Ecovadis certification enables companies in the same sector to compare themselves. It also enables us to position ourselves in relation to others.

It allows you to play the transparency card.

In terms of credibility, certified companies gain by showing their stakeholders (shareholders, customers, partners) that they are investing in the future and committed to improvement. It’s a lasting commitment.

How does it work?

The methodology is based on international CSR standards. It uses the standards of the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact, ISO 26000, the conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO), the CERES principles and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.

The certification is based on 21 sustainability criteria divided into four areas:

• Environmental,
• Social,
• Ethical,
• Responsible Purchasing.

These criteria are reviewed every year.

DDS scored over 50/100 and was awarded a medal for the occasion. The leading TMS company is therefore committed to the future, and aims to be a reliable player for its entire ecosystem.
