The measurement and management of your company’s sustainability strategy is becoming increasingly important for the future of your business. Sustainability has become an intrinsic component of operational strategies due to:

• recent emphasis on climate change
• the effects of human activities on the environment
• resulting regulations and requirements

Many companies are finding that their customers are now looking for their suppliers to demonstrate the sustainability of their products and supply chains as a prerequisite to doing business. There are others that have yet to realize the potential impact of the drive to sustainability on their business and may not know where to begin.

Why should you look at sustainability?

The most important answer is that it is good for your business. In many cases, a move towards a greener supply chain will actually reduce your costs and make your supply chain leaner and more flexible. It will give you an advantage over your competition and open doors to new customers.
