Ensuring supply chain solidity
from FOOTPRINT+ podcasts Hosted by FOOTPRINT+
Ensuring supply chain solidity requires a continual focus on upstream activities, whose environmental and social impacts are often underestimated. For most companies, Scope 3 emissions account for over 90% of their footprint, making supplier selection a critical strategic decision. Through practical cases, this session explores how solidity is embedded across primary value chains and extended to secondary inputs such as alloying elements and hardware. What is the role of: full value chain certifications as a robust though imperfect starting point for managing risks and ensuring accountability addressing transparency pragmatically as part of a risk-based approach that recognises absolute perfection as unrealistic traceability and digital tools as key enablers of visibility and control. The panel will also ask how evolving legislation and stakeholder expectations are raising new challenges for real-world practice within the built environment supply chain.
