Executive Summary
Over the past decade, large multinational firms have faced unrelenting pressure to monitor and manage EHS and sustainability information throughout their full supply chains, from resource extraction through post-use disposal. This report helps corporate decision-makers in EHS, sustainability, supply chain, and procurement roles who are responsible for supplier evaluation, selection, on-boarding and performance management better understand the current market landscape for technologies available to meet internal and external supply chain transparency pressures. Verdantix research identified seven functionality groups offered either partially or fully by vendors originating from ten background categories. Firms seeking to navigate this convoluted market landscape should invest time to explore possible technology-aided solutions; consider a single architecture platform for product, chemicals and EHS information; and ensure supplier-level EHS and sustainability risks are sufficiently assessed at the procurement stage.
