Additional Considerations

Community Engagement

Building relationships with local communities and stakeholders is essential to promoting your sustainability goals and gaining support. We help you engage with communities to foster goodwill and collaboration.

Environmental Impact

Regularly assessing and reducing your environmental footprint through sustainable practices in your operations is crucial. We assist you in implementing practices that minimize environmental impact and enhance sustainability.

Our Offerings

We collaborate with cross-functional teams within your organization and your partners, including 3PLs,
suppliers, customers, transporters, and regulators, to integrate sustainability considerations across the
supply chain. Our services include:
Responsible Sourcing

  • Vendor Verification and Management: We help you verify and manage your vendors to ensure they meet your sustainability criteria. This includes conducting thorough audits and assessments to ensure compliance with environmental and ethical standards.

  • Third-Party Certifications: We facilitate reputable third-party certifications to verify sustainability claims, providing you with the assurance that your suppliers are meeting high standards of environmental and social responsibility.

Traceability and Transparency

  • Combating Greenwashing: Transparency is key to maintaining the integrity of your value chain. Greenwashing is rampant, with a 2023 Wall Street Journal report stating that three-quarters of executives believe most organizations in their industry would be caught greenwashing if investigated thoroughly. We help you build trust with consumers by ensuring that your sustainability claims are genuine and verifiable.

  • Building Trust: Traceability helps companies build stronger relationships with clients and suppliers, identifying opportunities for efficient and sustainable resource management, and mitigating risks related to health, the environment, and labor rights.

Process Improvement

  • Compliance with Sustainability Requirements: We improve your supply chain processes to ensure compliance with sustainability requirements, including document exchanges with trading partners and regulatory organizations. This includes managing purchase orders, advanced shipment notifications, and other critical documents.

Packaging

  • Sustainable Packaging Solutions: We work with your 3PLs to ensure that sustainable packaging and labeling are being used. This includes ensuring that labels contain all necessary information, promoting transparency and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Data Governance

  • Global Data Governance Framework: Given the intricate interdependencies and global nature of trade facilitation, it is critical to have robust data governance in place. Our services include data discovery, establishing a global data governance framework, and ongoing monitoring to ensure compliance and efficiency.

Returns Management

  • Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: We enable strategies to manage returns effectively, promoting the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle. This not only helps in waste management but also in building a more sustainable supply chain.

Circular Design

  • Transition to Circular Economy: We help you rethink the way products are designed and made, transitioning from a linear (take, make, waste) model to a circular model. Our guidance through the principles of circular design ensures that your products are sustainable from inception to the end of life .

Expert Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Solutions for Sustainable and Resilient Value Chains

In today’s global marketplace, companies face increasing demands to ensure their value chains are not only reliable and efficient but also sustainable and resilient. Consumers are more concerned than ever about the ethical and environmental impacts of their purchases.

A 2015 survey across 60 countries found that 66% of consumers are willing to pay more for products or services from companies committed to sustainability (Nielsen, 2015). This growing consumer awareness, combined with evolving regulations and standards, makes value chain management increasingly complex.
