What is Onboarding Plus?

Onboarding Plus is a paid service targeting tier 0 and tier 1, multinational customers also referred to as Fortune 500 type customers. Deploying strategic corporate programs such as a sustainable procurement program, can be challenging for big organizations as it requires systematic cultural change and stakeholder adoption in often highly complex procurement organizations with large supply chains. To ensure the customer gets to the benefits and to the ROI of their EcoVadis SaaS solution contract early on, it is critical that all impacted employees, mostly procurement teams, understand how the program works, what they are requested to do and how to integrate EcoVadis in their procurement policies, processes and technologies.
