ESG data tracking and supply chain sustainability

Within this rapidly evolving ESG landscape, the critical role of the supply chain and the importance of visibility across the extended supply network is becoming abundantly clear. Most organizations today are not vertically integrated and, as a result, rely heavily on their extended supply network for goods and services that support their operations and end products.

This dependency also introduces ESG-related exposure. An organization’s ability to provide transparency into its performance and products is hindered if it lacks deep visibility into the various ESG dimensions across its multi-tier network. Therefore, in today’s world of heightened ESG pressure, organizations need to look toward their supply chain function to establish critical insight into their current state. At the same time, they should use supply chain data to power differentiated customer experiences and shape their sustainability-focused brand image.
