Does your organization measure supplier ESG risks at onboarding? 📊 A discussion-worthy statistic from ProcureCon’s Sustainability Report: Only 10% measure ESG risks for their suppliers at onboarding and 8% at pre-qualification or discovery. Possible reasons: - Current technology hinders timely ESG assessments during supplier discovery and onboarding. - Current manual processes are slow and cumbersome, preventing the proper data collection to manage risks. - Resources only allow companies to focus on current suppliers versus new suppliers.

The Rise of ESG and Scope 3 Emissions | You Must Know this 💁🏻♀️ Sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) considerations are taking center stage. These factors are no longer optional but essential components of procurement strategies. Here’s why every procurement professional should prioritize ESG and Scope 3 emissions: 1️⃣ Scope 3 Emissions: A New Standard Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all indirect emissions that occur in a company's value chain, are now a critical focus. New regulations in California and the EU require comprehensive reporting on these emissions, driving significant changes across industries. Companies are embedding CO2 reduction into their sourcing decisions to meet ambitious net-zero targets for 2025, 2030, and 2040. 2️⃣ Sustainability Integration Sustainable procurement practices are being integrated deeply into business strategies. This integration not only addresses environmental impacts but also aligns with financial stability, proving that sustainability and profitability can go hand-in-hand. Many companies are setting robust ESG goals, and procurement is crucial in achieving these targets through responsible sourcing and ethical supplier engagement. 3️⃣ Data and Transparency Effective management of ESG criteria requires transparency and robust data integration. Companies are leveraging advanced technologies like AI and digital twins to gain real-time insights into their supply chains. This enhances visibility, allows for proactive risk management, and ensures compliance with evolving ESG standards. 4️⃣ Global Impact and Biodiversity The emphasis on biodiversity and broader environmental impacts is growing. International frameworks and regulations are pushing companies to consider nature-related dependencies and risks in their supply chains. This holistic approach ensures that environmental considerations are embedded throughout the procurement process, fostering sustainable practices across the globe. 5️⃣ Combatting Greenwashing With the rising importance of genuine sustainability efforts, companies must avoid greenwashing. Clear, honest communication about ESG initiatives is essential to maintain credibility and comply with stricter regulations against misleading sustainability claims. This shift encourages businesses to adopt authentic, impactful ESG practices. By embedding ESG and Scope 3 emissions into procurement strategies, we can drive significant environmental and social impact while ensuring long-term business success. #Procurement #Sustainability #ESG #Scope3 #NetZero #SupplyChain #RiskManagement #EnvironmentalImpact #CorporateResponsibility #GreenBusiness

This is about Supply chain...I ordered a new stove (its more energy efficient!). My old one came with the house and was the only appliance I didn't switch out. Long story short it has died and I ordered a new one, it will take a month to get here. This is more than twice as long as it took to get things 10 years ago. We all know why: supply chain issues. I post about supply chain a lot, the reason being supply chain is one of the best ways to start working on Sustainability. It is also one of the best ways to start thinking about a Return on Sustainable Investment (ROSI). There are a number of sustainability/ESG concerns in supply chain and mitigating these concerns is a practice in strong risk management. Supply chain ESG concerns include: - Environmental: This includes water usage, carbon emissions, energy consumption, waste generation, and resource depletion throughout the supply chain. - Labour and Human Rights: Ensuring fair labor practices, safe working conditions, and respecting human rights are upheld. Corporates with global operations where workers may be subject to exploitation, unsafe conditions, or unfair wages. - Ethical Sourcing and Transparency: Ensuring that raw materials and components are obtained through responsible and sustainable means, without exploiting workers, communities, or the environment. - Social Impact: Identifying impacts on local communities, including displacement, cultural disruption, and economic inequality. - Governance and Compliance: Strong governance practices are essential for maintaining integrity, security, accountability, and ethical conduct. This involves adhering to legal requirements, industry standards, and internal policies, as well as promoting transparency, fair competition, and responsible business practices. On top of these concerns and/or in-conjunction companies must look at risk management and resilience. Supply chains face various risks so building resilience into supply chain operations is a necessary sustainability consideration. Identifying potential risks (i.e plague, war), implementing contingency plans, diversifying suppliers, and fostering collaboration across the supply chain are important exercises. At a high-level Supply Chain Analysis involves three phases: Phase 1: Identifying stakeholders, mapping the supply chain, collecting the data, assessing the ESG risks. Phase 2: Implementing ESG standards and policies, engaging with suppliers, and monitoring and measuring performance. Phase 3: Integrating ESG into decision-making process, engaging stakeholders and mitigating risks and driving a cycle of continuous improvement. Suppliers can be given a scoring and a number of companies have implemented and published a scoring schemes. To calculate ROSI companies could metric such items as cost reductions, inventory turnover ratio, order fulfillment, defect rate, and supplier lead time, #sustainability #sustainablesupplychain #esgrisk
