JAGGAER, a global leader in enterprise procurement and supplier collaboration, announced it has been awarded a Gold Medal from EcoVadis for its sustainability performance.

The Gold Medal places JAGGAER among the top 5% of all companies rated by EcoVadis in the 12 months prior. Among the EcoVadis rated industry peers JAGGAER ranks within the top 1%, with a score of 77.

The EcoVadis Gold medal is a testament to JAGGAER’s continuous efforts to integrate environmental, social and ethics principles into every aspect of its operations and to improve its own sustainable procurement practices.

“At JAGGAER, sustainability represents a very important element of our overall business practices.  As a vendor of cutting-edge procurement solutions ourselves, we strive to lead by example by continuously improving our own sustainability performance.  This approach allows us to more readily and more credibly serve as an ESG enabler for our customers and support them in empowering their own organisations to seamlessly integrate ESG principles into their procurement decisions,” said Jeff Laborde, CFO and Executive ESG Sponsor.

EcoVadis is one of the world’s leading providers of business sustainability ratings that assesses companies across various industries on their environmental, social, ethical and sustainable procurement policies and practices. Currently, the EcoVadis universe has over 130,000 rated companies.

EcoVadis’ business sustainability ratings are based on international sustainability standards such as the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) conventions, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and the ISO 26000 standard. The ratings provide an evidenced-based analysis on performance and an actionable roadmap for continuous improvement.

JAGGAER received its first EcoVadis bronze medal in 2021 and second bronze medal in 2022.  In 2023 JAGGAER received a Silver Medal. “The Gold Medal awarded in 2024 is a testament to our efforts to continuously improve our sustainability practices and remain adaptable by embracing changing customer demands, market regulations, and expectations for innovation with products, partners, and processes,” said Mr. Laborde.
