Beyond Risk: Driving Social and Environmental Impact

Customer preference has made sustainability table stakes for most businesses today. It is as important to drive profits as it is to benefit people and the planet. Procurement is in a unique position to help companies advance their sustainability goals by examining and addressing risks in supplier relationships. The SAP Ariba team led by Global Vice President Padmini Ranganathan created SAP Ariba Supplier Risk, the industry's first cloud-based technology solution to provide visibility into suppliers' risk profiles and highlight actionable insights to conduct due diligence and foster social and environmental sustainability. Through technology integrations with key global partners across public, private and NGO sectors, this team revolutionized supplier risk and sustainability management processes.  Their innovative work continues to scale, helping companies achieve responsible sourcing and creating a lasting impact on the sustainability of our planet.
