?? Help us to help you! ??

Dear SPP Community,

The SPP has one main goal: to EMPOWER and EQUIP procurement professionals with the knowledge and tools they need to establish sustainable procurement practices in global supply chains.

To be better able to support you on your individual journey toward responsible sourcing practices, we need your insights. Therefore, please take just 15 minutes of your time to answer the questions we compiled together with Gartner in our 2024 Sustainable Procurement Pulse here: https://surveys.gartner.com/s/pulsespp24

??♀? The more, the merrier! ????????

To make the data relevant for you and us, please help us collect as many insights as possible and share the link with your professional network. We are more than happy to share the results with all of you in early summer. ?

Thank you very much for being an active SPP ambassador!

In addition to the 2024 Sustainable Procurement Pulse, our SPP Chapters have been busy with organizing new upskilling and meeting opportunities. ??
