P&G Launches Supplier Environmental Sustainability Scorecard
Innovative New Tool Developed in Conjunction with Over Twenty Leading Global Suppliers
Supplier Environmental Sustainability Scorecard and rating process to measure and improve the environmental perfor- mance of its key suppliers. The new score- card will assess P&G suppliers’ environ- mental footprint and encourage continued improvement by measuring energy use, water use, waste disposal and greenhouse gas emissions on a year-to-year basis. It is hoped that this breakthrough work
T
will lay the foundation for an industry standard and the scorecard will be “open code” for use by any organization to help promote a working discussion and deter- mine common supply chain evaluation processes across all industries. “The launch of the Supplier Environ-
mental Sustainability Scorecard repre- sents the next step in P&G’s commitment to environmental sustainability and re- flects the Company’s holistic, end-to-end supply chain strategy,” said P&G Chair- man of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer Bob McDonald. “We will grow P&G’s business by touching and improving more consumers’ lives in more parts of the world... more comple- tely. To accomplish this, we must conti- nually innovate and grow responsibly and sustainably. Keeping Sustainability at the core of our business fuels innovation and strengthens our results.” P&G’s new supplier scorecard is the
result of 18 months of work and close collaboration with the organization’s Sup- plier Sustainability Board, which includes more than 20 leading supplier representa- tives from P&G’s global supply chain. The scorecard relies on accepted worldwide measurement standards and sound scien- ce, including protocols from the World Resources Institute, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development
18
and the Carbon Disclosure Project, so as to minimize redundant efforts and build on existing best practices. P&G’s goal in deploying the scorecard is to enhance supply chain collaboration, measure and improve key environmental sustainabi- lity indicators, and encourage the sharing of ideas and capabilities to deliver more sustainable products and services for its consumers. “We worked closely with a global team
of P&G personnel, suppliers and supply chain experts to determine the most ef- fective way to measure the environmental performance of our diverse global suppli- er base,” said Rick Hughes, P&G global purchasing officer. “Our suppliers wanted a tool that was flexible yet grounded in existing measurement standards and, by working together, we developed a fram- ework that will help drive real improve- ment across all industries.” The scorecard is specifically designed
to focus on, and encourage, year-on-year improvement – regardless of a supplier’s total size or the current stage of its sustai- nability program. Roll-out beyond P&G’s key suppliers will be determined once le- arnings from the first phase of deployment are incorporated. Suppliers will have a full

year to prepare to report their data before the rating can adversely impact their sup- plier rating with P&G. In the future, P&G will use the scorecard to determine each supplier’s sustainability rating as part of P&G’s annual supplier performance mea- surement process. For more information on P&G’s com-
