Traceability Insights
To begin with, it is essential to increase traceability in the supply chain to drive better and more optimized solutions. The value of traceability comes directly from the reliability of the information coming from a traceable system, hence it is necessary to choose from multiple traceability models offering varying degrees of flexibility to suit the business needs.
Re-thinking the Product
To remain evident amidst the growing investor sentiments and disruptive technological advancements, it is advisable to start by investing at least one-third of the capital to rethink the product in a new direction. Integrating concepts of circularity along with responsible packaging and final use can prove to be important.
Communicating the Change
About 80% of consumers have been found to change their purchasing behavior based on standards of sustainability. Thus it becomes imperative to strategically communicate the change that your business is implementing. The best practices for communicating change involve tangibly integrating quantifiable results, communicating challenges, and engaging with customers.
Continuous Assessments
Companies need to initiate comprehensive and continuous assessments to realize net-zero transition stages and further lay down a realistic emission reduction plan. Data makes up a critical aspect of realizing net zero innovation as VCs are now using ESG performance as a decision-making criterion. Thus it is important to be fully equipped with figures and metrics for carbon accounting.
