France Supply Chain strengthens its involvement in a sustainable supply chain as a transformation lever for a full CSR company by 2030

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees, Press area.

CSR is more than ever at the centre of companies' concerns. Between pandemics, geopolitical conflicts and climate change, CSR is now confronting companies with their responsibilities and making them question their organisations for the years to come. 

Based on this observation, the Institut de l'Entreprise, PwC France and Maghreb, and the FNEGE (Fondation L'Institut de l'Entreprise) have coordinated a study, "L'Entreprise Full-RSE à horizon 2030", aimed at understanding how to integrate the social, societal and environmental responsibility of companies at all levels of their organisations. 

From foresight to practice

 Between September 2020 and November 2021, in an unprecedented partnership approach, 10 leading professional associations*, bringing together more than 240 witnesses from the management of more than a hundred companies, and 30 academic experts, took part in 10 "design fiction" workshops, consisting of projecting themselves into plausible futures in order to question the directions to take in the present. 

FRANCE SUPPLY CHAIN, the reference interlocutor on all issues related to the supply chain and involved for many years in sustainable supply chains, is pleased to have contributed to this study.

 For Yann de Feraudy, President of France Supply Chain:

 In 2030, the supply chain function will become more central and visible. Insofar as it affects 60 to 80% of the cost structure, it is one of the major levers for the transformation of our companies. It covers a number of activities, from sourcing to product recycling, including purchasing, supply, planning, production, storage and transport. This central and cross-functional position aligns the Purchasing, Industrial and Logistics functions towards the same strategic and operational vision. 

A full CSR company will define a supply policy and will ask for its joint implementation by its Purchasing and Supply Chain departments... The latter will equip itself with increasingly sophisticated technological means to ensure better visibility and traceability throughout the chain by optimising the service and the use, or even the reuse, of resources to preserve the planet. It will have to collaborate with stakeholders both inside and outside the company, mobilising its entire ecosystem. 

These workshops have highlighted the difficulties that "stand in the way", we believe that we must look beyond this by relying on the changes underway that are working and drawing lines for the future! 

The full CSR Supply Chain function will be : Customer-focused, more resilient, increasingly collaborative (sometimes even with competitors) so it will be better able to recruit and develop talent and have a positive impact on the planet.

Handling equipment: How to meet the energy challenges of today's and tomorrow's warehouse?

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

In a context where companies are implementing solutions to reduce their energy consumption and their carbon footprint, intralogistics is attracting more and more interest. Today, having an optimised and agile intralogistics is a competitive advantage. Companies are looking for new technologies, sources of energy for more efficiency, profitability and sustainability.

On 31 May, France Supply Chain organised a webinar with the companies EOL, Fenwick, Evolis Sympo and Andine to find out which innovations to implement for its handling equipment fleet (webinar replay below).

Supply Chain Decarbonisation: The Shift Project x SupplyChain4Good collaboration

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

In 2021, we have drafted a manifesto for a sustainable supply chain and our aim is to have a living document that we continuously enrich with the experiences and projects of our members.

We would like to open up our work to other reference associations that also work for the decarbonisation of the economy. In this context, exchanges have been initiated with "The Shift Project".

Accelerating the energy transition of the supply chain

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

The climate emergency, coupled with the crisis of the covid, reveals the importance of decarbonising the energies produced and consumed, and of developing short energy circuits. Beyond the sense of history, there are the regulatory constraints linked to the challenges of sustainable investment and the energy needs of territories. This context, in the grip of ambitious European obligations to generalise green energy, places the supply chain as a producer and source of energy for the territories.

On 22 March, France Supply Chain organised a conference with LLC Avocats to find out how to take action on carbon energy issues. The objective of this conference was to go beyond the regulatory constraints by highlighting the environmental and economic benefits of energy projects with regard to the specificities of the Supply Chain.

CO2e Measurement Across Supply Chain by SupplyChain4Good

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

From a BCG survey of 1,290 companies in 2021, we know that :

85%

of organisations consider themselves concerned about reducing their emissions

9%

are able to measure their emissions comprehensively

11%

have reduced their emissions in line with their stated ambitions over the last five years

More broadly, respondents to this study estimate an average error rate of 30-40% in the measurement of their emissions.

Following the publication of the 6th IPCC report and the ambitions shared by The Shift Project in their Plan for the Transformation of the French Economy, it is clear that organisations are not up to the challenge.

This is why the SupplyChain4Good LAB is launching the "CO2e Measurement Across Supply Chain" project

To carry out this project, we are launching a survey to assess the impact of companies. The more people who participate, the more we can move forward together on low carbon best practice.

Participate

The objectives

  • Diagnose current CO2e measurement practices in supply chains.
  • Examine the prospects for improving measurement practices (automation, collaboration, granularity, completeness, etc.).
  • Agreeing on a targeted level of accuracy of CO2e measurement that could support the steering of the transition to a low-carbon economy with reasonable effort

Deliverables

  • Survey of all participants to assess the maturity of impact measurement, priorities and current concerns regarding existing methodologies.
  • Diagnosis of current impact measurement practices related to the value chain; the level of completeness, granularity, frequency and accuracy should be assessed and challenged
  • Best Practice Guide / Set of recommendations on the level of measurement targeted for each axis identified in the diagnosis and survey
  • SupplyChain4Good approved" label and/or commitment of all participants to adopt the recommended practices.
  • Proof of Concepts adapted to the revealed needs of the participants

White Paper - Supply Chain x RPA 2022

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

In a context of ever-increasing competitive pressure, the supply chain must transform itself to become more integrated and digital, and thus gain in agility and resilience. Increasing productivity and competitiveness are key objectives that the supply chain must achieve.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is therefore becoming a major challenge for the supply chain in order to automate time-consuming processes (data entry, master data management, sending documents, etc.). This automation frees up time for operators and guarantees the integrity of data, time that can be reinvested in higher value-added tasks such as those geared towards customer satisfaction. RPA can be implemented in all companies, from SMEs to multinationals, and in all sectors of activity.

What are the prospects for hydrogen-powered heavy goods vehicles for freight transport?

Written by webm@ster the . Published in News-semi-public-privees.

Heavy goods vehicles are known to produce the majority of the negative externalities linked to carbon emissions. For several years now, companies have been striving to adopt more responsible solutions in order to make their supply chain greener.

Hydrogen is becoming one of the most studiedalternative energies for the creation of clean vehicles for goods transport. As it is not used enough, there are many questions about its functioning, its deployment prospects, its advantages, its obstacles...

On 16 February, France Supply Chain and France Hydrogène organised an event to answer all these questions. Several speakers met in order to inform and accompany the actors of the supply chain of goods transport wishing to engage or already working on the topic of the electric truck with hydrogen for goods transport.

During this event, the Mobilité Hydrogène France group of France Hydrogène presented its White Paper dedicated to the deployment of the electric hydrogen truck in France.
