Driving ESG into the Supply Chain

Turn ESG commitments into measurable, enterprise-wide supply chain impact

Procurato’s ESG in the Supply Chain service helps organisations translate sustainability commitments into measurable impact. We calculate and reduce Scope 3 emissions while embedding ESG practices across the supply chain to support your net zero goals.

About ESG in the Supply Chain

For many organisations, the supply chain is the largest contributor to carbon emissions and ESG risks, yet data is often fragmented, and supplier practices can be difficult to influence.

Procurato brings clarity and control. We use a structured, multi-metric approach to calculate Scope 3 emissions (powered by our proprietary solution, SpendQube), build a defensible ESG baseline, and highlight priority areas for intervention. We then help you embed ESG criteria into procurement processes and supply chain governance, enabling sustainability objectives to cascade across your entire supplier network.

Our approach combines robust data analysis with practical procurement levers – including supplier selection criteria, contract management, and category strategies – to ensure ESG becomes part of day-to-day decision-making. The result is a clear roadmap to reduce emissions, align your supply chain with sustainability objectives, and build long-term resilience.

How it helps your business

Reliable ESG Baseline

Establish an accurate Scope 3 emissions baseline, with transparency around data sources, emission factors, and calculation methodology.

Targeted Action on Carbon Hotspots

Identify which categories, suppliers, and regions drive the largest share of emissions so you can prioritise interventions where they will have the most impact.

Supplier Engagement & Collaboration

Work with key suppliers to set reduction targets, include ESG criteria in tenders, and encourage innovation that supports your sustainability objectives.

Improved Reporting & Compliance

Meet regulatory and stakeholder expectations with recognised reporting methods and audit-ready documentation.

Overview

Our Approach to ESG in the Supply Chain

We begin by cleansing and categorising spend data, applying emission factors, and building a Scope 3 emissions baseline using the most appropriate methodology for your organisation.

Once the baseline is established, we generate heat maps and dashboards that pinpoint the categories and tiers of the supply chain where interventions will have the greatest impact. We then embed ESG considerations into procurement processes and supplier governance, aligning category strategies, tender criteria, and performance frameworks with your sustainability objectives so that ESG becomes part of day-to-day decision-making.

Finally, we implement reporting and monitoring mechanisms to measure progress, track supplier performance, and refine your approach over time, ensuring ESG initiatives continue to deliver impact across the entire supply chain.
