Bring in a Consultant

Hire a new employee

Frequently asked questions
What is EcoVadis?
Ecovadis is a top platform assessing a company's sustainability. It offers a rating system examining environmental impact, labor standards, ethical practices, and supply chain sustainability. It helps companies benchmark against competitors, identify improvements, and showcase sustainability commitment. Participation is voluntary, however, many find it beneficial for understanding their sustainability performance and achieving their social responsibility goals.
Is EcoVadis challenging?
Overall, the difficulty lies in preparedness. With proactive sustainability practices and readily available documentation, EcoVadis becomes a verification and benchmarking tool. Without prior focus on sustainability, it can be a more demanding process of data collection and familiarisation.
Why should I do EcoVadis?
EcoVadis offers a valuable opportunity to assess, improve, and communicate your company's sustainability efforts. It can benefit your internal operations, enhance your brand reputation, and open doors to new business opportunities.
How does Qonstrue differ vs traditional solutions like consultancy?
Traditional solutions like consultancy are cost-prohibitive, project-based and don't enable SMEs to embed sustainability long-term. Qonstrue provides SMEs with a new way to achieve their sustainability goals, by delivering monthly 1-to-1 expert coaching and a platform with all the tools you need.
How much does it cost?
Qonstrue is free for small-medium businesses to get started. You can then decide whether you want to pay for a premium plan, including expert 1-to-1 coaching or sign up for the free forever plus plan.
