Turn CSRD Compliance Into a Competitive Advantage
ESG reporting across suppliers is a manual nightmare — scattered questionnaires, no audit trail, data that goes stale. EvaluationsHub makes supply chain ESG data collection continuous, structured, and audit-ready.
The CSRD challenge for procurement teams
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive requires companies to report on supply chain sustainability — not just their own operations. For procurement teams, this means collecting, verifying, and maintaining ESG data from dozens or hundreds of suppliers, on an ongoing basis.
Most teams are currently doing this with email questionnaires. The problems are well-known:
- Data collected once, then ignored — a questionnaire completed at onboarding does not reflect the supplier’s current ESG position
- No verification — suppliers self-report and there is no mechanism to challenge or validate responses
- No audit trail — when auditors ask how you collected and assessed the data, email threads are not sufficient
- Inconsistent coverage — some suppliers complete questionnaires fully, others partially, and the gaps are not systematically tracked
How EvaluationsHub handles supply chain ESG
Structured ESG questionnaires
Pre-built ESG data collection templates aligned to CSRD requirements, covering environmental, social, and governance dimensions.
Continuous monitoring
ESG data is refreshed on a defined schedule — not collected once and forgotten. Suppliers are prompted to update their data when it expires.
Verification workflows
Flag responses for review, request supporting documentation, and record your verification decision — all in the platform.
Audit-ready reporting
Export complete ESG data sets with full audit trail — who submitted what, when, and what verification was applied — for your CSRD report or external audit.
ESG as part of supplier scoring
EvaluationsHub integrates ESG performance into your overall supplier scorecards. ESG scores sit alongside quality, delivery, and service scores — giving you a complete view of supplier performance that includes sustainability, not just operational metrics.
When a supplier’s ESG score drops — because a certification lapsed, a questionnaire went unanswered, or a compliance gap was identified — the same corrective action workflow that handles operational issues handles ESG issues. The process is the same; the data is different.
Who needs this now
CSRD applies to large EU companies from 2024 and cascades to their supply chains — which means if you are a supplier to an EU company, your customers are increasingly asking for structured ESG data. Having it ready, in a structured format, is becoming a commercial requirement, not just a regulatory one.
For procurement teams building their ESG supplier programme, starting now means you have two or three cycles of data before the compliance deadline. Starting later means scrambling with manual processes under time pressure.
