Embedding sustainability into your supply chain policies

This in-person session is aimed at helping SMEs integrate sustainability into their procurement policies.

Participants will look at ways to identify high emission purchases and carbon "hotspots" within their supply chain and to highlight priority areas for action. The session includes guidance on engaging with suppliers, asking key environmental questions and incorporating simple sustainability clauses into contracts.

Leave with the confidence and tools to prioritise sustainability in procurement and to ask the right questions to favour local, ethical or low-carbon suppliers and products.
