Access Now: Decarbonising the Supply Chain: From Quick Wins to Demonstrating Success

Reducing supply chain emissions remains one of the most complex and critical challenges on the path to net zero. With Scope 3 emissions often accounting for the majority of a company’s carbon footprint, businesses are under growing pressure from investors, regulators, and customers to demonstrate credible progress. Yet for many organisations, supplier engagement remains inconsistent, data collection is patchy, and action stalls before impact can be proven.

As scrutiny increases around sustainability claims, companies must find ways to back up supplier progress with reliable data and real-world outcomes. Companies must focus on practical and measurable change, whether that is supporting suppliers with the tools and incentives they need, or learning new ways to discuss their efforts without reputational risk.

Edie’s 45-minute masterclass session, in partnership with Zeigo by Schneider Electric, explores how sustainability and procurement teams can take a more targeted, impactful approach to decarbonising their supply chains. It will discuss how to identify and request the right carbon data from suppliers, effect quick wins to improve green efforts, and communicate sustainability wins credibly.

Discussion points:

• How to identify and request the right carbon data
• Creating quick wins to cut supplier carbon fast
• How to demonstrate supplier sustainability without greenwashing
