For SME suppliers
Your customer wants data. You provide it once.
Answer your customers' requests once, with evidence, and decide for yourself who sees what.
For suppliers with 10 to 1,000 employees, without a sustainability department of their own.
Does this sound familiar?
Not subject to reporting, but asked. New from every customer.
Every customer asks in its own format. You start from scratch each time, often in Excel and without evidence.
Surveys per year, in Excel, portals and emails.

Your request, your solution
What is on your desk?
The situation
A customer sends a questionnaire with many questions on environment, working conditions and governance. Deadline: two weeks. The next customer asks the same thing in another format.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- Upload the questionnaire as Excel, Word, PDF or email, including scanned copies
- The AI suggests answers from your profile, VSME and certificates, with source
- Review, share and export into the original document; the answer stays for the next request
The situation
Your customer needs your emissions for its own Scope 3 target. It asks for Scope 1, 2 and 3, ideally with method and evidence.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- Carbon footprint Scope 1–3 for all sites, Scope 2 location- and market-based
- Screening of all 15 Scope 3 categories, emission factor source for each item
- Footprint per year as a frozen version, shared per customer; an existing footprint can be taken over
The situation
Your customer's procurement wants the carbon footprint per item, for the parts it buys from you.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- PCF per item from bill of materials, material master, production, packaging and transport
- Data in PACT format (version 3), emission factor source for each item, reconciliation with your footprint
- Shared per customer¹; Basis includes 20 items, Pro 120
¹ Passing on to buyers with licensed factors; confirmation of the factor licence is being clarified.
The situation
A reporting customer asks for your sustainability data within the VSME framework. From the 2027 financial year, this becomes the standard request.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- VSME assistant with basic and comprehensive module
- The AI reads invoices and evidence and suggests values; company data is taken over
- Report as PDF, VSME-compliant and VS-ready; a digital XBRL export is planned
The situation
Every customer has its own supplier code of conduct. Sign it, file it, search for it again at the next audit.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- Accept the customer's code, confirmation optional as a file
- Or: already accepted in the contract, or your own equivalent code
- Visible to all customers in your profile, shared per customer
The situation
The EU Packaging Regulation has applied since 12.08.2026. Your customer asks whether and how you are affected.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- PPWR readiness check: check whether you are affected, free and without signing up
- Result with recommendations and PDF
- Packaging data under PPWR per packaging: planned
The situation
The digital product passport is coming for the first product groups, for iron and steel probably in 2028. Your customers are starting to collect data.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- DPP readiness check: check whether you are affected, free
- Substance data per item (SVHC, PFAS) in the PCF module
- Data for your customer's digital product passport: planned
The situation
Nobody in the company is responsible for sustainability. You want to know what is coming before the first request arrives.
How to solve it with ZEROvia
- Baseline assessments for ESG and procurement, with recommendations and PDF
- ESG self-assessment with 49 questions, without a score, with quick wins for each gap
- AI assistant ZAIA and glossary explain every term

To the action planFor SMEs without a sustainability department
Built so you don't get stuck while filling it in.
Most SMEs have no one who looks after sustainability alone. That is why the help is built into the tool itself, right where the question appears.
Notes where the question appears
Tip boxes explain while you type what a value is needed for and where it appears again in the tool.
Glossary with over 400 terms
Technical terms in baseline assessment, self-assessment, VSME, carbon footprint and PCF are linked directly and explained for SMEs.
Templates right at the question
No supplier code yet? No problem: the self-assessment and VSME include a template right next to the question. Here is an example of what one can look like. From ESG self-assessment & profile, individual templates from Climate & Compliance Basis.
ZAIA knows the tool
The AI assistant draws on the knowledge in the tool and from the training, answers technical questions and shows where to do what.
Implement measures as a team
Recommendations go into the action plan, with person, deadline and target. That turns an answer into a process.

Sustainable Sourcing
The add-on takes implementation further: tenders, supplier development and cost-benefit per measure.
