  1. Why are you Scorecarding? Approach varies based on what you are trying to accomplish • To measure and reduce carbon footprint in yours and suppliers organizations • To create a standard of operations for suppliers • To focus on reduction of cost • To impact branding

  2. Define what Sustainability is to you • Corporate social responsibility • Packaging and life cycle of goods • Logistics/ transportation • Suppliers impact on the environment • Compliance and governance, violations and regulations

  3. Some tips • Define scope, circle of control and circle of influence quickly • This is a company wide initiative requiring cooperation and agreement from all areas impacted • Determine top priority “fill is king” or “impact is king” and be prepared for shifts • There will be trial and error, expect changes as information is tested and discovered • There is no one “package” that will work for all companies, tweaks will happen. Tools will require customization • Set goals as they will determine approach and needed tools • This is not a simple process, it requires time, testing, maintenance and analysis • Challenges may be faced in obtaining data at useful levels

  4. Selecting Usage Tools • Find a tool that includes the use of location as a factor. Electricity is most impacted by this, as the emissions are influenced by the way it is produced. For example areas heavily reliant on coal are more carbon impactful than those with alternative energy • Look for a tool that provides information at multiple levels (e.g. facility, region etc.) for more in depth analysis and areas to attack first • If you plan to report to an agency, make sure the tool follow those guidelines and can be accredited • Determine a baseline and make sure the tool uses that. You need a minimum of one year of data as the baseline • Make sure the tool has the flexibility to add reporting points for before and after a change in procedure

  5. Possible supply chain areas to address • Transportation choices and schedules • Ship schedules – consolidation, timing, reverse logistics planning • Packaging – both product and shipping materials – from alternatives to configuration • DC layout and pick order for efficient packing • Order points and optimal stock levels • Manufacturer/ supplier methodology and processes
