Enabling net zero value chain: Scope 3

Scope 3 emissions reduction strategy
Addressing Scope 3 emissions is vital in your decarbonisation and sustainability journey, but it requires collaboration throughout the entire value chain.
Upstream decarbonisation of your value chain may include: supplier management programmes to manage the carbon intensity of purchased good and services and to optimise your upstream logistics. Downstream decarbonisation however may include: waste management in operations, downstream distribution and last-mile distribution, the use of sold products, and their end-of-life management.

Where industry hurdles meet expertise
Helping you overcome important industry challenges

Procurement sustainability and supplier management
We help you reduce Scope 3 emissions in your value chain, by addressing the procurement of goods and services and by helping you implement supplier management systems. We offer supplier engagement programmes, to structure the emission reporting of your suppliers and to allow you to drive CO2 reductions, leading to green procurement.
Green Public Procurement (GPP) – including circular – procurement standards are increasingly used by governments to seek the procurement of goods, services and works with a reduced environmental impact throughout their life cycle. We help you with the implementation of such standards in your projects, buildings, or manufacturing and packaging processes.

Transport and logistics
Optimisation of logistics can significantly reduce your value chain emissions. We help you reimagine your supply chains to realise efficiency gains and increase resilience. Benefit from our strong analytical tools and predictive modelling, to reduce emissions on upstream logistics of bulk materials and components, to the downstream distribution of your products and last mile delivery.
Decarbonisation of supply chains may include changing transport modalities, fuel shifts, and the electrification of vehicles. We can help you to make actionable business cases for the investment in sustainable supply chains, together with your upstream and downstream partners.

Waste from own operations
Waste from your own operations is also part of the Scope 3 emissions challenges, therefore we help you with waste management strategies to reduce waste, to feed it back into production, or to find new and value-adding use cases for your waste.

Track & trace
Make your sustainability claims and scope 3 emissions reporting more credible through solid guarantees of origin of the materials in your products. Mass balancing approaches, increasing shares of biobased or circular material use, while at the same time allowing you to promise safe and sustainable final products.

Use of sold products
The use phase may represent significant emissions in the life cycle of a product or asset. We help you with energy efficiency improvements, end-user behaviour programmes, and lifetime extension options. Repairability, recyclability, or other design measures that increase the lifetime, will help you to reduce the impact of your products or assets.

End-of-life of sold products
Governments and consumers increasingly demand producer responsibility for the circular end-of-life management of products or assets. We offer decommissioning plans, circular economy and scope 3 emissions reduction strategies for the optimisation of collection and separation of waste, increasing the retention of value of your materials. We can also support you to recycle the waste and create the most added value.
