Microsoft

Microsoft supplier reporting sits in an awkward gap: Microsoft's published disclosure-cycle guidance asks suppliers to address total-company and service-level data-integrity requirements through assurance or consultant-letter options, while the exact submission requirement still depends on the contract, portal wording, or written request you received.

CDP

A CDP supplier request usually asks your company to disclose environmental information through the CDP Portal because a buyer, investor, bank, or initiative requested it. For most mid-market suppliers, the hard part is not opening the questionnaire; it is building the emissions data, methodology, source records, and internal approvals behind the response.

EcoVadis

An EcoVadis supplier questionnaire usually asks for company-specific evidence across sustainability themes such as Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. The exact questions vary by activity, size, and operating locations, so the response needs both accurate documents and a careful boundary read.

Drive Sustainability SAQ

A Drive Sustainability SAQ 5.0 request asks your company to complete one standard sustainability questionnaire on the SupplierAssurance platform, because an automotive customer wants to see how you handle environmental and social responsibility. It is free to complete, but the work behind a strong result is the real job: finding the right proof for each section, fixing what your policies or certificates are missing, and working out the carbon numbers the environment questions ask for.

Volkswagen Group

A Volkswagen Group brand has asked your site to earn a positive S-Rating. It is one sustainability rating for your site, built on the Drive Sustainability questionnaire plus, for higher-risk sites, an on-site audit. A positive rating is a precondition for being nominated for new work, and the same rating counts across every Volkswagen Group brand.

BMW Group

BMW has asked your company to complete the Drive Sustainability questionnaire, but BMW evaluates it in its own way. There is no percentage to hit. BMW checks your answers requirement by requirement in its supplier database, gated by a traffic light, with requirements that rise with your company's total headcount.
