Drive Sustainability partners require their suppliers to participate in SAQ 5.0 (Self-Assessment Questionnaire) for sustainability evaluation. This ensures compliance with social and environmental standards in the supply chain. Achieving an S-Rating is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for supplier approval and is critical for new projects.

SAQ 5.0 requirements are extensive and require careful preparation. We assist companies in efficiently and lawfully completing the questionnaire, including:

• Structured preparation of the self-assessment and compilation of required documentation
• Implementation of new processes to ensure compliance with the requirements
• Optimization of disclosures to accurately reflect a company’s efforts in compliance and sustainability
• Identifying and closing gaps to improve the S-Rating

A well-prepared SAQ 5.0 submission strengthens competitiveness and reduces the risk of supply chain exclusions.
