Proceed in stages, starting this week with an inventory of what already exists: composition, origin, identified suppliers, certifications. Within 30 days, launch pilot scoring on 1 to 3 representative products, for a typical budget of €5,000 to €10,000 excl. VAT. Within 6 months, deploy across the 30% of the catalogue accounting for 80% of turnover, using reliable data, rather than publishing everything at once on fragile foundations. For textiles, Ecobalyse can calculate an initial score using default values, to be refined later with supplier data.
