The role of responsible labels in transforming purchasing practices

Maureen Poullié's professional thesis focuses on how a responsible label can transform a company's purchasing practices towards a more sustainable approach.

Through a case study of an aeronautical company that has held the RFAR (Label Relations Fournisseurs et Achats Responsables) label since 2022, it demonstrates how a label can act as a guide, guarantor, federator and differentiation tool. Based on semi-directive interviews and participant observation, the study highlights the importance of a collaborative commitment and appropriate management methods to make this transition a success.

For her research, Maureen Poullié received the Women's Prize for the Best Professional Thesis in Supply Chain awarded by France Supply Chain's Communauté des Femmes en Supply Chain.
