Sustainability Supply Chain Data
Globalisation and the resultant exponential expansion of global supply chains in the past few decades has changed how supply chains are structured. Today, those responsible for a business’ supply chain will pay acute attention to how it is managed to ensure sustainable operations. Not reporting on this information and publicly failing the expectations of stakeholders can be detrimental or even terminal for a company’s right to operate. Specific environmental, social and governance metrics are increasingly being gathered from suppliers to inform the business decisions of buyers.
