Embedding ESG into Your Sourcing Operations through Business Spend Management (BSM)

Global brands are all looking to emerge from the pandemic stronger. For many, that includes a focus on ethical business practices through Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) programs. Yet we continue to hear from our community of customers and partners that while they understand the importance of ESG in business, they are not sure how to get started. 

Organizations looking to implement immediate ESG practices can start by looking at their supply chain and evaluating its impact through the lens of business spend management (BSM). For example, shifting spend to diverse suppliers or taking action to design a supply chain transportation network that reduces carbon footprint. In this fireside chat, Donna Wilczek, Coupa SVP of Product Strategy & Innovation, speaks with Dawn Tiura, CEO of SIG, to discuss how companies can make ESG impact. The audience will walk away with an understanding of the steps they can take to get started, including:

- What to look for when examining their current supply base and supply chain

- How to set appropriate goals to increase diverse supplier spend and improve supply chain sustainability

- How to measure and optimize progress and performance along the way
