To drive your supply chain toward Net Zero, in turn reducing your supply chain emissions:
Step 1 – Create an up to date list of your suppliers that make up at least 10% of your annual spend (if none, choose the largest). Alternatively for SMEs, choose at least 3 of your consistent suppliers.
Step 2 – Work with the various teams in your business to include the Pledge and your climate change action in procurement policy documents
Step 3 – Ensure that your request that they sign up to the POW Pledge is communicated to suppliers – directly by email, in terms and conditions or supplier code of conduct documents, or through shared policy documents. A template letter is available here and will be available as a download once you complete the Pledge.
You should also use your voice to influence other stakeholders:
