Supply Chain Insight® Tool (SCi)

Managing the environmental and social performance of your supply chain is becoming increasingly important in today's markets. How well are you managing yours?

The complexity of today's global supply chain networks can make it challenging to understand what is happening outside your company's gates. As a result, there is a growing need for companies to collaborate directly with their suppliers in order to better understand and manage supply chain risks and identify opportunities for improvement. Currently, companies that are able to demonstrate the sustainability performance of their supply chains have a competitive advantage, but in the future, supply chain management will be a requirement of a company's ‘license to operate'.

Five Winds' Supply Chain Insight Tool^® (SCi) guides organizations through a comprehensive list of questions designed to help companies understand and improve their supply chain business practices. This customizable tool quantifies supply chain performance in all areas of sustainability and is intended to compliment (rather than replace) a strictly performance-based formal audit.

Companies that integrate sustainability into their supply chains can realize a number of business benefits, such as brand enhancement, improved market access (domestically and internationally), customer retention, and improved risk management. The Supply Chain Insight Tool^® and analysis provides you with a head start on achieving these benefits.
