Operations and supply-chain leaders have more opportunities than anyone else in the business to directly drive sustainability, and turn their vision of sustainable operations into a realistic future for their business.
They have the power to roll out and execute well-devised sustainability plans. But even the best plans in the world won’t succeed in the long term if they’re not effectively embedded into every single part of the supply chain.
To effectively achieve their sustainability goals, operations and supply-chain leaders need to work closely with key stakeholders from across the supply chain, understanding their individual challenges and working to embed sustainability into what they do.
Only by effectively tackling every individual sustainability challenge at every point of the supply chain will leaders be able to drive lasting sustainability.
Construct a broad, high-level sustainability plan for the supply chain, and define your own vision of ideal sustainable supply-chain operations.
Start engaging with different stakeholder groups from across the supply chain, including:
Designers—to discuss how you can best help them design for the environment
Planners—to identify how you can help enable sustainable supply-chain planning and sustainable sourcing
Manufacturers—identifying opportunities for enabling sustainable manufacturing
Logistics managers—to help lay down plans for sustainable logistics, and product take-back and recycling
Facility managers—to help improve resource utilization through stronger maintenance and asset management
Use your new cloud platform to deploy new sustainability solutions to be used across the supply chain.
