Supplier ESG and BRSR Value Chain Assessment

Assess, engage and disclose the ESG performance of your value chain partners as a technology-driven managed service. Powered by ESGSlate, our value chain ESG platform, we take you from partner identification to BRSR-ready disclosure and independent assurance.

Overview

What Value Chain ESG Assessment Means

Value Chain ESG Assessment is how you measure, improve and report the ESG performance of your upstream and downstream partners. Under SEBI BRSR, listed companies must now disclose the ESG performance of their key value chain partners, credibly and with assurance. Your own numbers are no longer enough.

We run the whole cycle for you: identify the partners that matter, collect and analyse their ESG data on one secure platform, close the gaps, and produce a disclosure that stands up to assurance.

Why Now

Value Chain ESG Is Now a Disclosure Duty

The rules are here. Our assessment aligns to the SEBI BRSR framework and the GRI Standards.

BRSR Value Chain

Listed companies must disclose the ESG performance of key value chain partners, with assurance.

Scope 3 and Climate

Most of your emissions and ESG risk sit in the value chain, not your own operations.

CSRD and CSDDD

Companies selling into Europe face value chain reporting and due diligence duties.

Investor Pressure

Investors and lenders now screen value chain ESG risk before they commit.

Buyer Requirements

Global buyers demand supplier ESG data as a condition of doing business.

Reputation and Cost

Weak value chain ESG means disruption, higher cost of capital and brand risk.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is value chain ESG assessment?

It is the process of measuring, improving and reporting the ESG performance of your upstream and downstream partners, so you can manage risk and meet disclosure duties such as BRSR.

What is a BRSR value chain assessment?

Under SEBI BRSR, listed companies must disclose the ESG performance of their key value chain partners. A BRSR value chain assessment collects, verifies and reports that partner data, ready for assurance.

How do you assess supplier ESG?

On our ESGSlate platform: we identify critical partners, collect standardised ESG data, run risk and materiality analysis, engage suppliers to close gaps, and report the results.

Do you provide independent assurance?

Yes. We provide limited or reasonable assurance so your value chain ESG disclosure stands up to regulator, investor and buyer scrutiny.

Do you cover Scope 3 emissions in the value chain?

Yes. Value chain ESG assessment includes Scope 3 data from partners, which typically makes up the largest share of a company's emissions.

Is this a one-off assessment or an ongoing service?

Both. Choose a one-off Assessment for a clear baseline, or a Managed Service to run the full cycle every reporting year.
