Harnessing Technology for Greener Supply Chains with Montse Montaner
According to the EPA, 90% of a company’s environmental impact comes from its Supply Chain. Despite a majority of senior Supply Chain executives stating they are putting an increased emphasis on establishing and delivering against net-zero targets, nearly 1 in 5 do not have a net-zero strategy or know where to begin, and half of the executives don’t have an integrated scorecard to measure supply chain sustainability results. Organizations need to understand, measure and reduce their environmental impact. Unfortunately, most of it occurs in the far corners of their supply chains, spanning suppliers and logistics providers. But the visibility of their extended networks is a must if companies are to make better decisions for the planet. According to Montse Montaner, the former Chief Sustainability Officer at Novartis, “It is imperative for the business to take action. Businesses need to transform their supply chain and operations to make it sustainable.” But how do you use visibility to deliver against your sustainability targets while optimizing profitability?
