  5. And Procurement Needs To Change Too • All too often we are still seen as; transaction, cost focused and tactical • But many have moved (or are moving) to become; more strategic, value add and embedded • What does this mean in respect of Sustainable Procurement?

  6. My Personal View • Value Chain – Understand the end to end process and impacts • Strategy – Society should be placed at the centre of our thinking • People – Good people want to work for good businesses, growing importance in attracting and retaining talent • Reporting – Measure material things, “roughly right v’s accurately wrong” • Key Challenges – supply chain resilience, safety/no-harm and innovation/value release – inc. Social Vlaue • The ClassicSustainability • Model

  23. Conclusions from the survey • There is some understanding of Sustainability but it is varied • Confusion on standards for Sustainability • CIPS and University degrees are primary source of knowledge • Need for clearer guidelines for procurement professionals to evaluate and select suppliers • Sustainable procurement needs significant improvement

  24. Challenges to procurement due to Sustainable requirements • Lack of knowledge internally – standards, • Lack of knowledge externally in the supply chain • Setting the right targets • Keeping focus - as Sustainability is achieved over the long term • Redesign and re-evaluate procurement strategies

  25. Defining “sustainability” • Sustainable development has been influentially defined as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (WCED, 1987) • “Sustainability can be thought of as a process, as opposed to an end-state (Parker, 2002) • Global reporting initiative G4 guidelines provide a standard for all companies to report their sustainability initiatives • Rauch and Newman(2008) define metrics for sustainability in four areas of emissions, water, energy and material use
