The Challenge: Embedding Sustainability in Complex Supply Chain

The client, a manufacturing conglomerate based in France, embarked on a project to align operations with sustainable principles and reduce ecological footprint. The client needed aΒ sustainability consultantΒ to conduct a thorough sustainability audit and provide actionable insights to guide future initiatives.

Role of Consultport

ConsultportΒ proposed 3 strong consultant profiles within 48 hours. The client interviewed 2 candidates and selected a former Senior Consultant at Deloitte specializing in sustainability topics. The consultant started working with the client team 5 days after the initial request.

The Approach

Working with the client’s sustainability team, the consultantΒ defined the scope and objectives of the audit. Through document review and personnel interviews, the consultant gained a comprehensive understanding of the current sustainability practices.

The consultant alsoΒ performed a lifecycle assessmentΒ to evaluate the environmental impact of various stages of the manufacturing process

from raw material sourcing to product packaging and disposal.

From the audit, the consultant identified several major challenges, including a lack of transparency in the supply chain, inefficient resource utilization, and a need to meet increasingly stringent sustainability regulations while maintaining cost-effectiveness.

The Results

The sustainability roadmap delivered measurable environmental impact while strengthening the client’s corporate reputation and industry positioning.
