The Dun and Bradstreet DUNS Number is a unique nine-digit identifier for businesses that identifies a company as being unique from any other inside the Dun and Bradstreet Data Cloud.

The DUNS Number is used around the world to identify and access information on businesses. A DUNS Number identifies a company's Dun and Bradstreet business credit file, which may include firmographic data (company name, address, phone number, etc.), corporate family relationships (headquarters, branches, subsidiaries, etc.), and scores and ratings that assess different financial health indicators. The DUNS Number can also serve as a primary data key within an organization's Master Data Management architecture, such as Coupa.

In a Source-to-Contract context, having a DUNS number means:

• Trustworthy relationship between suppliers and customers by having access to performance behavioral data such as scores and ratings.

• Performing risk assessments of potential partners and or customers.

• Let customers learn more about your business by requesting reports and historical information.

Eco Vadis is a sustainability rating of companies that cover a broad range of non-financial management systems including Environmental, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement impacts. Each company is rated on the material issues as they pertain to their company's size, location, and industry.

Eco Vadis overall score, from 0 to 100, reflects the quality of the company's sustainability management system at the time of the assessment. For more detailed information, please visit Eco Vadis help center.

In case you have been assessed, Lindt and Sprüngli might require your Eco Vadis score later for Source-to-Contract processes such as Supplier Onboarding, Contracts, RFP, RFQ, RFI and or eAuctions.

Your Eco Vadis score will be asked in the pre-qualification questionnaire. If you have not been assessed yet by Eco Vadis, more questions will open for you to provide us information of your company’s sustainability management.

You will receive an E-mail invite to join the Coupa Supplier Portal from Lindt and Sprüngli. If the same E-mail address is used to connect to your other Coupa customer(s) via the Coupa Supplier Portal, then, once you confirm the new connection request, you are automatically connected to your new customer and your previous customers within the Coupa Supplier Portal.

If you wish to merge the separate Coupa Supplier Portal accounts you hold later, then you can do so via Coupa’s Coupa Supplier Portal homepage. Coupa has a Coupa Supplier Portal training video to find out how.

As a supplier, you can find out if your response was submitted either from:
