Sustainability in Procurement
Sopra Steria is strongly committed to economic, social and
environmental sustainability within its business and throughout its
value chain. We are keen to work collaboratively with suppliers to help
them provide us with price-competitive products and services that
improve sustainability in our business, and for our customers.
We are working to ensure our supply chain is:
- Diverse, and a source of innovation and economic opportunity for all.
- Comprised of other businesses operating ethically and sustainably.
- Reducing carbon emissions and waste.
Sopra Steria will take into consideration the whole life cost of products and services we procure.
We are committed to working with Subject Matter Matters (SMEs), who can provide us with
innovative solutions and agile services. This is part of our economic
sustainability programme, working to provide access to business
opportunities for a diverse range of organisations and to support
stronger local economies.
