What role can procurement play ensuring sustainability strategies come true?
The world needs it, companies taking action to ensure a more sustainable future. To meet our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Annual reports and corporate mission and vision statements are filled with them – the promise of safe guarding natural resources as well as social and economic resources. Sustainability is more and more becoming a strategic imperative every day.
In the middle of those strategies you find procurement and an ecosystem of suppliers. Supply chains becoming increasingly complex. Procurement ensuring both resources are used efficient and that company solutions and offerrings are sustainable.
