Sustainability sourcing for a greener future
Make strategic sourcing decisions that prioritize sustainability and reduce your carbon footprint, while still achieving your bottom line. Keelvar's Sourcing Optimizer help you evaluate different award scenarios based on price and non-price considerations such as ESG and carbon impact.
Combining supplier ESG ratings with intelligent sourcing
Keelvar’s integration with EcoVadis embeds trusted sustainability ratings directly into sourcing workflows. It enables procurement teams to evaluate supplier ESG performance, make more responsible decisions, and align with sustainability goals and compliance requirements.


Bringing emissions transparency to your bid sheets
