| dc.description.abstract | Matthews International recently updated its environmental sustainability commitments, which encompass ten core pledges. This project aims to enhance sustainable procurement practices at the Industrial Technology Business Unit at Matthews. The focal point of our project is the development of an effective process that guarantees suppliers' compliance with sustainable procurement requirements such as CSRD, CBAM, and EcoVadis. By conducting a gap analysis of Matthews' current scoring and a case study of the supply chain process and the impact of one main raw material, lithium, we found that Matthews' procurement practices still has a lot of room for improvement, especially in supplier diversity, stakeholder engagement, and the integration of environmental and social criteria into its supply chain process. As a result, specific recommendations were proposed for each reporting requirement for a more sustainable procurement process. | |
