Procurement practices play a crucial role in driving positive environmental change.
By prioritising suppliers who follow environmentally friendly practices, such as using renewable resources and reducing their carbon footprint, organisations can ensure
that their procurement processes are aligned with sustainability goals.

 

Considering the entire life cycle of a product, including production, transportation,
use, and disposal, allows for a more comprehensive understanding of its environmental impact. 

 

Scarlet engages with their suppliers to encourage environmentally responsible practices which can lead to a significant positive impact. This can involve working collaboratively with suppliers to improve their environmental performance, sharing best practices, and requesting regular sustainability reports from them.

 

Embracing the principles of the circular economy, such as reducing waste, reusing materials, and promoting recycling, help guide Scarlet Global procurement practices toward an even more sustainable approach and future.

 

Prioritising energy-efficient technologies and products, not only reduces environmental impact, but can also lead to cost savings. When procuring equipment, organisations can assess energy consumption and choose options with high energy efficiency ratings.

 

By integrating these practices into procurement processes, organisations can effectively contribute to positive environmental change and promote sustainability throughout their supply chain process from start to finish.
