In this Spend Matters PRO Vendor Analysis, we will give an overview of Sustainabill, a Germany-based provider that focuses on helping companies understand their supply chains, and thus manage risks, achieve social compliance, and mitigate climate impacts.

Governments frequently upgrade their regulations with regard to supply chain due diligence. The purpose is to create a level playing field to ensure that companies operate under the same framework across borders. This creates additional pressure (on top of customer-side requirements and, of course, an eagerness to do good for society as a whole) on organizations to integrate ESG-related considerations in their approach to supply management.

For supply chain and procurement professionals, this often means new requirements and new activities that cover areas that are new to them and to their suppliers. For example, requirements for organizations to measure the CO2 footprint of their supply chain or to tackle modern slavery are faced with several challenges: identification of the multiple players in the supply chain (beyond tier 1), methodology to collect and assess data, etc. Such challenges are precisely the ones that Sustainabill addresses.

Therefore, this Vendor Analysis will give an overview of Sustainabill’s capabilities, look at the competitive landscape, provide tech selection tips, and close with key analyst takeaways.
