Synopsis

This book discusses the ways in which procurement can help to provide an ethical and sustainable approach to business and product creation while raising an awareness of unacceptable practices with a view to their eradication.

The author demonstrates and explains how to best conduct yourself in a procurement role and what challenges you should be aware of. Factors such as being aware of modern slavery, supply chain's pollution emissions, and opportunities to recycle and reuse will be explored to create an understanding for the reader in how value should be achieved in today's way of managing procurement.
