What is Sustainable Procurement?

Sustainable Procurement is the incorporation of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles into procurement processes and policies, ensuring that business with suppliers is conducted in a manner that aligns with corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies.

Sustainability, as well as overall Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) pressure is intensifying on businesses around the world. Customers, investors, employees, citizens and governments have a vested interest in ensuring that businesses establish and execute ESG strategies. We believe Procurement is key to executing and accelerating ESG initiatives.

Procurement Impact on Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance

Procurement strategies orchestrate where and how a company spends. In doing so, Procurement can ensure that business with suppliers is conducted in a manner that aligns to certain environmental, social and ethical standards.

Sustainable Purchasing practices can help incorporate ESG into day to day operations e.g., what is purchased, from whom, how it is delivered, what is known about that supplier, finding a new supplier, etc.

What is Environmental, Social and Governance?

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) is not new, it is really a more measurable evolution of Corporate, Social, Responsibility (CSR).

Environmental covers issues around climate change, pollution, carbon emissions and footprint, deforestation, and more
Social covers issues around health and safety, human rights, diversity, equality and community impact.
Governance deals with business ethics including board composition, executive compensation, accounting and auditing, bribery and corruption.
