Sustainable Supply Chain The Power of ESG in Transforming Your Supply Chain
Hey everyone, Tom Raftery here, and I've got an insightful episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast lined up for you today! I had the pleasure of talking with Dean Alms, the Chief Product Officer at Aravo, a company dedicated to helping organizations manage their extended enterprises with a focus on risk management and performance.
In this episode, Dean and I explore the world of ESG and risk management, discussing the importance of sustainability and ethical business practices in today's supply chains. We dive into how companies can strategically implement ESG initiatives by thinking big, starting small, and growing fast.
Dean shares details about Aravo's upcoming Strategic Alignment Framework, which will help organizations align their ESG initiatives with their overall business goals. Keep an eye out for its release at the end of March!
We also touch on some customer success stories, albeit anonymously, in the consumer packaged goods and pharmaceutical industries, and how Aravo has helped them navigate various risk domains, from environmental sustainability to data privacy.
Looking forward, Dean shares his thoughts on the future of Aravo, highlighting the increasing importance of managing the extended enterprise and the role of regulatory agencies in shaping businesses' practices. One key takeaway is the shift in procurement decision-making, moving from just product and price to also include practices—making sustainable and ethical choices a priority.
