Sustainability & CSR

Responsible research
is the same decision twice.

Bringing the study to the participant is why our evidence arrives faster, and why it arrives with a lighter footprint. Our sustainability programme runs on the four pillars an EcoVadis assessment looks at, and Evidilya is EcoVadis rated.

People & Research First®
Independently assessed

EcoVadis rated, on the four pillars that matter

EcoVadis assesses environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. We treat the assessment as an external check on progress rather than a badge, alongside the ISO 9001 certification that governs how our studies run.

01

Environment

The lowest-impact study visit is the one that never needed a journey. Direct-to-Participant execution removes avoidable participant travel; electronic source, eConsent and remote monitoring remove paper and monitoring flights; sample logistics and cold chain are planned for the shortest viable route.

02

Labour & human rights

Fair employment, safe working conditions and no tolerance for forced or child labour, inside Evidilya and along the supply chain. Particular attention goes to field personnel, home-visit nurses and couriers who work outside our offices.

03

Ethics

Anti-corruption, scientific integrity, conflict-of-interest management, data protection and a protected speak-up channel. These are not a parallel programme: they are the Code of Ethics, applied.

04

Sustainable procurement

Suppliers, sites, laboratories and technology partners are assessed on environmental and social performance alongside quality and price, with the expectation of improvement over time.

Where the footprint actually falls

Research with a lighter footprint

In a conventional trial, most of the environmental and human cost sits in movement: participants travelling to sites, monitors travelling to sites, paper travelling everywhere. That is exactly the cost our operating model was built to remove.

Fewer journeys per participant

Home visits, telehealth and community pharmacy touchpoints replace repeat trips to a distant specialist centre, for the participant and often for their carer too.

Paperless by design

eConsent, electronic source and e-signatures remove printing, courier runs and archive boxes across the study lifecycle.

Risk-based, remote oversight

Centralised monitoring against a documented risk plan replaces routine on-site visits, cutting travel without cutting scrutiny.

Shorter cold chain

Sample routing and kit distribution are planned around the participant's location, reducing distance, dry ice and wastage.

Access as an equity question

Reaching people who live far from research is a social outcome, not only an operational one. Designs keep a non-digital pathway open so participation is not a privilege.

Data kept, not hoarded

Minimisation and defined retention mean we hold what the science requires, for as long as the protocol and the law require, and no longer.

We publish the mechanisms, not modelled savings. Where a sponsor needs a quantified footprint for a specific programme, we build it from that study's own logistics data.

People

A speak-up culture is a sustainability control

Social performance is not a poster in a corridor. It is whether a nurse on a home visit can stop an unsafe activity, whether a junior scientist can flag a data-integrity problem, and whether either of them still has a career afterwards.

Retaliation against anyone who reports in good faith is treated as a breach in its own right, investigated by people without a conflict in the matter, and closed with a documented outcome.
