As a large organisation with an extensive and diverse supply chain, we are deeply committed to ensuring our supply chain partners align with the same values, standards, and sustainable practices that we uphold. The ESG Committee has thoroughly evaluated our supply chain processes to embed sustainability principles throughout our operations. Amplify, our two-tier supplier model, supports numerous projects and contributes to our substantial investment in the region. We have segmented our supply base to maximise engagement with each partner, utilising methods such as supplier audits, a Code of Conduct, sustainable procurement policies, formal agreements, and e-procurement platforms.
Our Amplify alliance with leading engineering companies aims to drive significant investment in the local economy, creating thousands of new jobs while delivering critical infrastructure projects as part of our commitment to customers, communities, and the environment. We prioritise working with businesses that demonstrate good and sustainable practices, adhering to stringent procurement policies and favouring local suppliers to provide employment and community benefits.
All suppliers must comply with our Code of Conduct for Supply Chain Partners. As a partner of the Supply Chain Sustainability School (SCSS),we are committed to upskilling our supply chain and colleagues across key sustainability topics. Also, through our ESG approach and Net Zero targets and Green First approach, we engage our supply chain to reduce our collective environmental impact through collaboration.
