Sustainable Procurement with a Purpose
Proxima’s Sustainable Procurement service brings the expertise and know-how required to assess, kick start, or accelerate purposeful procurement and lasting positive change. Understanding that every organization is different, we bring together three distinct sustainable procurement services which can be deployed separately or sequentially. They reflect that procurement may be pioneering sustainable initiatives or collaborating with a business that demands change. We provide:
- Expert insight into market developments, other organizations, technology, and suppliers
- Assessment frameworks to help benchmark, inform needs, and build a case for sustainable procurement
- Supply market, sourcing, and change management expertise
