sustainability
Sustainability has now become a business differentiator. Those who can demonstrate a leadership position are seeing significant benefits in terms of investment value, brand reputation, sales growth and the recruitment of top talent. Demand for change is also coming thick and fast from Government, regulators and customers: it is critical that the impact of new legislation is built into future plans and budgets.
Businesses now understand that the majority of their sustainability impact is driven by what they source and how they source it, therefore putting a huge responsibility on Procurement and Supply Chain teams to drive improvements and meet sustainability commitments. Our sustainability specialists support you to understand and map your sustainability risks, working with you to develop clear commitments and a strategy for improvements, then fully embed new KPIs and ways of working.
We work collaboratively with your teams to develop an understanding of your sustainability hotspots, using our Prosperity Framework to identify your key risks and opportunities within our 3 Sustainability Pillars – ‘Environment, Equality and Economy’ .
Our solution allows you to understand your current position and the changes required in the future to address strategic challenges, minimise risks and deliver against your sustainability commitments.
Our solutions are based on a two-phase approach using our ‘ABC’ diagnostic and 4C implementation methodologies. As part of this approach, we will also provide you with a carbon footprint assessment of your supply chain (Scope 3), using our Carbon Optimisation Framework assessment tool.
By the end of a project, working with our supply chain sustainability experts, you will understand the top challenges facing your business and the competitive landscape. You will have a clear vision and strategy, including infrastructure requirements and financial implications. We will then work with your teams to implement and embed the changes required to achieve a sustainable operating model.
