Vizibl’s top tips on creating and executing a superb supplier sustainability strategy
In the context of corporate sustainability, scope 3 emissions represent the most significant and challenging component of a company’s carbon footprint.
Unlike scope 1 and scope 2 emissions, which are direct and energy-related emissions respectively, scope 3 encompasses indirect emissions that occur throughout the entire value chain. This includes emissions from purchased goods and services, transportation, waste disposal, and other activities not directly controlled by the company but linked to its operations - meaning that most, if not all, of your scope 3 emissions will sit with your suppliers.
For procurement leaders, addressing scope 3 emissions is both a critical responsibility and a formidable challenge. It requires deep engagement with suppliers, robust data collection, and innovative solutions to reduce emissions across the supply chain.
This guide explores the role and responsibilities of procurement leaders in driving scope 3 sustainability, the importance of supplier collaboration, and the role of innovative software solutions in achieving these goals.
Embrace supplier engagement as a strategic imperative, and embark on a journey towards sustainability excellence and collaborative success.
