Scope 3 Supplier Engagement
Supplier data collection designed so that suppliers will actually complete it, and emissions figures that stand up when a customer or an auditor tests them.
Duration:
6–14 weeks
Category:
Sourcing, origin and reporting
You are probably here because:
What you get
A materiality assessment showing which categories and suppliers actually carry the emissions, so effort goes where it changes the number rather than where the data happens to be easy. A supplier data request pack and follow-up sequence, built around what the supplier already holds and written in language a small supplier will answer. A calculated position by category, with method and uncertainty stated against each figure. An evidence file structured for external assurance, that your customer's auditor can follow without you in the room. And an improvement plan showing which data will get better, and by when.
Who it is for
Suppliers to retail and food service, and anyone whose customer has set a carbon data deadline that is now close.

"We sent a supplier survey out already and the response rate was poor."
"Our figure is built from spend-based averages and will not survive scrutiny."
