Bardess scored in the 89th percentile when compared to similar businesses. EcoVadis’ rating methodology is based on seven principles: evidence, industry, diversification, technology, independent assessments, traceability and transparency, and excellence through continuous improvements. Additional guidance is taken from international Corporate Social Responsibility standards including the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, the International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)’s standards, the ISO 26000 standard, the CERES Roadmap, and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, also known as the Ruggie Framework. Bardess posted its highest score in Ethics, but also ranked highly in the categories of Environment, Labor & Human Rights and Sustainable Procurement. Corporate Responsibility is More than a Buzzword to Bardess Corporate responsibility is a big buzzword in boardrooms, but the talk rarely goes beyond that and into action. Bardess and our partners have taken on numerous projects, including teaming up with Qlik and the Columbia Water Center CWC to use our data analytics and Qlik’s visualization tools. Together, we put dam safety data from the US Army Corps of Engineers and water quality violations into an easy to use dashboard. Understanding and heading off potentially devastating water issues with the CWC is just the latest collaboration between Bardess and partners. Bardess, Qlik and Cloudera had previously worked together to monitor the Zika virus outbreak using data sources ranging from the Center for Disease Control, the World Health Organization, social networks, weather patterns, mosquito populations, airline flight data and hospital records. With the unstructured data collected on the secure Cloudera platform, then put through Bardess analytics and into a Qlik visualization, health care providers and pharma reps could easily see which geographical areas were under the largest threat and needed fast access to treatments.
