Sustainable Supply Chain Management


> Have you derived from your corporate sustainability strategy a corresponding supply management strategy?

 

> Have you formally examined the environmental and social implications and risks of your global supplier and low-cost-country sourcing footprint?

 

> Are you aware of the most advanced business pratices of your competitors in terms of working conditions and environmental protection along the supply chain?

 

Sustainable Supply Chain Management brings together the principles of supply management & corporate social responsibility to make suppliers a sustainable source of value, anticipating environmental issues rather than reacting to it, and improving the labour standards throughout the supply chain.
