Case Study: Faurecia strengthens supplier sustainability and performance with EcoVadis

Faurecia Uses EcoVadis Rating to Align Supplier Sustainability and Drive Performance

Faurecia, a global leader in automotive technology, sought to expand its commitment to sustainability across its supply chain to align with its core values, mitigate risk, and reduce costs. To achieve this, they needed to deploy a comprehensive CSR-monitoring program and partnered with the vendor EcoVadis to assess its strategic suppliers.

EcoVadis provided the framework and platform for Faurecia to successfully implement its sustainability program. The solution included mandatory CSR assessments, specialized training for internal "Buy Beyond Champions," and the integration of supplier sustainability KPIs into strategic plans. As a result, Faurecia dramatically increased the number of assessed suppliers from roughly 400 in 2015 to about 2,000 in 2019, achieving an average score of 44.9 and steadily improving supplier engagement.
